I found myself yearning for cherished moments of connection.
Picture it: a circle of close-knit girlfriends, celebrating our victories, supporting each other through challenges, and relishing the simple joys that make life worth living. That's the scene I always envisioned for myself—a scene of warmth, laughter, and genuine friendship.
But somehow, life took a different turn. Instead of being surrounded by my girls, I found myself navigating the solitary path of a busy professional, struggling to synchronize schedules and steal moments of connection amidst the chaos. Missed calls, rushed meetings, and fleeting attempts at relaxation became the norm, leaving me craving deeper connections and meaningful conversations.
In the wake of a painful loss, I made a bold decision—to leave behind the familiar comforts of home and embark on a journey of self-discovery. It was a leap of faith, a leap into the unknown, but it was also a chance to redefine my priorities and seek out the connections I so desperately longed for.
And then, just as I began to find my footing, the world was plunged into uncertainty with the arrival of the pandemic. Yet, in the middle of isolation, a seed of hope was planted—a seed that would eventually blossom into something beautiful.
