We are cruising into 2023! It’s that time of year when many reflect on the past year and set goals for upcoming one in the form of a new year’s resolution. Common resolutions for the new year include eating right, exercising more, getting organized, writing, reading more books, working on self-acceptance, showing up on time, traveling more, etc. Have you made a goal for 2023?
