Probably one of my most favorite times of the year is when we reflect. I look forward to this recap/reflection every year. I can reminisce on all the memories both good and bad, learn from my mistakes and reset for the new year.
I’ve been doing this list of reflection questions for the past 3 years now and I still love it. I’ll leave it linked here! https://pin.it/43Hwo6B
