Breakthrough! Everything I bought in October with 9 actionable takeaways. Plus, my shopping diary.

Finally walking the walk.

I typically kind of dread writing these, if I’m being honest. I do it because I believe it can help readers. I know I appreciate writers who let the flaws show, not for shock value, but so we all feel less alone. But generally writing these feels like an exercise in failure — making and breaking promises that I CHOSE to make TO MYSELF of my own free will. And within the futility of this, trying to consider whether those goals are even worthwhile. While sometimes imagining that at some point maybe the diary-ing, goal setting, etc. would “take.”

And you know what? It finally did. And now I think I can unlock it for you, too.
