Turning 35 next month hit me with a huge realization. Somewhere over the last 5 years—between work, routines, and adulting—I lost that expressive, always-with-friends, present version of myself. I barely recognize who I became.
Instead of just letting the years roll by, I’m calling a total reset. Time to stop just managing daily life and start actually living it again. More outreach, more expression, more showing up for the people who matter.
Empathy is a precious attribute. It has tremendous value, takes effort to cultivate, and becomes more and more rare each day. Even the smallest doses of it can yield life changing results.
