September 2023
So we are now in Autumn and September has been a bit of a mixed bag. Work has been super busy and I've been pulling super long hours; yet when I read back on my gratitude journal it doesn't seem to be a major issue - the main thing is that I've been able to [...]

It has been a super busy month - I worked 18 days straight - but, perhaps surprisingly, I haven't been as burnt out as one might expect. These days I feel I'm better at refilling my cup, finding joy [...]
