Choosing to Dream More
My sleep patterns have been wayyyy off since the beginning of the year. I mean, I haven’t seen the back of my eyelids for 8 consistent hours in IDK how long. Between work, family, + service, I interface with at least 15 people/day. That type of constant external energy in your space can wear you…
