💭 Checking in on ourselves is just part of being human. Reflecting on how we’re feeling, what we’re thinking, and what we need is oftentimes the fuel that ignites our decisions about what we do or say (or choose not to) to meet our own goals for the situation. The holiday season is a perfect time to pause and do just that. It can also encourage us to think about our choices, advocate for ourselves, or make a little more time to refuel.
