Taking the holidays off for the first time in nearly twenty years changed how I see rest, purpose, and what it means to truly pause.
I worked through them quietly, intentionally, and often invisibly. From home. From my computer. Between family moments. Around the edges of life. Building, creating, supporting, and showing up in ways that mattered to me and to others.
It wasn’t forced. It wasn’t wrong. It was simply the season I was in.
