As the new year begins, I like to slow down a little and notice what has actually supported me in the past months, and what has quietly been pulling me in a direction I don’t want to continue. When you pay attention long enough, you start to see the patterns and habits and expectations that used to make sense, but don’t fit the season you’re in anymore. And letting those things go creates more room for a simpler and more intentional life.

If you’re someone who wants to simplify your year or bring more intention into your routines, I hope this gives you something to reflect on. You don’t need to make huge changes to feel a difference. Sometimes it’s enough to recognise what no longer works for you and gently step away from it.

I hope the new year brings you a bit more ease, more space, and a rhythm that feels right for where you are now.
