Breakup Bootcamp: Forgiveness
I have been open about my breakup journey and journey is really the best way to put it because it has not been a linear path.

As a person who thrives when they have a routine, I tend to have trouble taking a step back to fully acknowledge when I am stuck in a rut or not challenging myself or not making time to do the things that bring me joy.
