+ TRAVEL MORE – like most, Zach and I share a love for traveling both domestic and internationally. This year we have decided to prioritize traveling within the United States and take a trip every quarter. I’m so excited! Our first trip is already booked- we are headed to one of my very favorite places in February… Charleston, SC!
+ HIT MY BLOG GOALS – each year I set financial goals for my blog and this year is no different. I also want to get my content in front of more people because I love interacting with y’all!
+ HAIR GROWTH – for those that follow my Instagram stories, you know I’ve been through the ringer with my hair… 2021 took a toll on my hair and so 2022 I am bound and determined to repair and grow healthier, thicker hair.
+ CALL MY LOVED ONES – I am so bad about picking up the phone and calling my loved ones. At the end of 2021 my grandfather passed away and I miss him so much. A regret I have is that I wish we would’ve shared more phone calls with each other. It’s my goal to be better about calling my loved ones because you never know when it could be your last call!
+ GET CONTROL OF MY ANXIETY– I have only briefly touched on this subject but it’s something that has really taken control of my life in the past couple years and so this year I am going to actively do something about it. I am also going to share more on this topic because I think it’s important to talk about our struggles… you never know who you could inspire/ help.
+ WRITE MORE – one of the reasons I started my blog was because I truly love to write… like really LOVE it. Before I updated my website I was almost ashamed to post because I didn’t want anyone to see my basic website! Now that my revamped website is live, I’m excited to post more! I plan to post every week at least once a week (fingers crossed LOL).
+ UTILIZE PINTEREST – I don’t know why I haven’t focused utilized Pinterest in the past but it’s such an amazing tool! I plan to post more of my content there to bring new eyes to my content.
+ PRIORITIZE FRIENDSHIPS – does anyone else feel like it’s hard to adult, have a full time job, be married, live in the burbs, and have engaging friendships?! Zach and I have great forever friends but we don’t always get to see them so this year I’d like to actively prioritize those friendships and make a conscious effort to gain new friendships as well.
+ FINISH READING THE BIBLE – in March of 2021 I started reading the Bible and it’s my goal to finish it sometime this year!
+ GET TO CHURCH MORE OFTEN – I think the pandemic really did us in on this one. We got comfortable watching church online (which is 10000% ok) and I miss going in person! This year we are going to actively try to go more often. We went this past Sunday and it’s just so refreshing to have communion, worship, and pray with others!
+ GET STELLA A FRIEND – I’d love to adopt a pup friend for Stella this year! Sometimes I worry about the responsibility that goes into gaining another fur friend but also really want Stella to have some at-home interaction with another dog!
