community is everything: hosting my friends, home made pizza & end of year routine

Hello guys! Welcome back. In today's vlog I hosted my first ever get together at my new home, it was filled with so many laughs. I am beyond grateful for the people in my life, I don't take it for granted at all. To be able to host people at my house has been something I wanted to do for a very long time. 2026 and beyond is all about being intentional with friendships, existing and new.

I made pizza from scratch, the last time I did this was like lockdown era, again this was something I have been meaning to do again so I was beyond glad when I got to make them again and this time it was WAY better.

I talk about wanting to introduce more slower days in my life. I want to be more intention with this aspect of my life. We live in a capitalistic society and time - being able to maximise it is seen as pinnacle of success. Doing the most in a short amount of time. I appreciate I may not be able to fully opt out of this BUT, I do not want to feel like I am on a hamster wheel for the rest of my life. Chile, that is not healthy for my nervous system and state of being. In 2026, I will create more moments where I can move slower, breath deeper and enjoy my surroundings a little bit more.

My 2023 journal is finally finished after 2 years of diligently filling the pages in. I discuss about what is in my journal - to an extent as its deeply personal. I share my method when it comes to journalling. I share some new year prompts that you can use as we enter 2026. I finally get to start using my new journal that was gifted to me earlier this year, how exciting!

All in all, I am beyond grateful for 2025. I pray that 2026 is bountiful for all of us.

Take care and bye for now.
