Most importantly, it’s taught me how to prioritize myself.

The Last Time
You never know when it’s going to be the last time…

The last twelve months have flown by! It blows my mind that today is the last day of 2019. This year has been crazy, full of ups and downs. I even fell down, high up on a hill in Colombia, LOL.
