Hindsight is 20/20.  We always acknowledge the lessons and see the strength gained from times where we're just going THROUGH it- after the fact.  But what about slowing down while you're actually in the midst of the chaos and understanding this is the best part. It's not about the "thing" that we're reaching for.  Feeling overwhelmed and anxious is part of the human experience.  Allow yourself to hold space for those feelings while still finding the courage to keep moving forward.
