For more than a decade, I’ve started each year by choosing a single word. Not a resolution or checklist – just a simple, intuitively felt anchor.
What amazes me is how the word always shifts. It begins with one meaning, but life stretches it into something entirely new. This year, I chose “me.” It felt selfish at first, but quickly became about care, clarity, boundaries and rebuilding. 2025 was so difficult, I almost skipped choosing, yet the word “unraveling” found me anyway.
Looking back, it’s now a cornerstone of my life, guiding me gently forward, one intentional word at a time.
