We all know at least one of these people. They are the ones who say exactly what they’re thinking. They don’t hide their emotions, seem to share every opinion, and are unapologetically who they are every moment of every day.

Birthdays are a perfect time for reflection and taking stock. For checking in with where you are, and asking how you got there over the past year, or longer. They also offer the fresh slate of a new year ahead, stretching into the unknown, full of the possibility of good that can be done for

This week, we definitely took a swim in the deeper end of the mindfulness pool with our conversation on the truth, and its various complexities. If you stuck around for it, I give you credit, as it wasn’t the easiest stuff to digest. But, such is the work of growing into ourselves, right? If you
