Laura – First enjoy Peru! I was there in like 2004 and it was incredible. The colors and the weavings of the indigenous people are just amazing. Second I can’t wait to catch up sometime. I’ll keep being one kind of inspiration, you keep being the truly wonderful kind you are and our paths will cross again soon.

So excited to hear what’s next for you – you always have wonderful ideas and are a great inspiration – and next time we’ll be sure to catch up in NYC! I’m off to Peru this week so will write a bit about it when I’m back. Sending good thoughts to you!

WHAT? My blog is stripping me of virtual hugs? This is insanity. Well I’m certainly #thankfulfor friends like you. Thanks so much Jen!

Thanks Bronwyn. It’s a bit overwhelming at times to be alone all day. Someone called me today at noon and I realized that while I had been up for hours, I hadn’t spoken yet so sounded like I just rolled out of bed. Sometimes I talk out loud to myself just to hear my voice. Solitude it hard. It’s totally part of the process. I’m enjoying this time up here no doubt. Thanks for following along, really means a lot.

Jake – How poignant. You’re exactly right. The phrase I’ve been using that I didn’t mention in the post was “DECOMPRESS.” We absolutely do so much input and output – where is the time to just take it all in. Revive our spirits to keep fighting the good fight.

You’re on my short list to update with what’s next. After my mom of course. She has this silly thing about wanting to know about things before I blog about them.

One of my coaches always used to tell us to remember to breathe out in a race, because the part of breathing that actually separates the oxygen from the air and supplies your blood happens during the exhale and not the inhale.

That is to say, exhaling is when you get the real “value” of breathing.

I think of that a lot in midst of the incredibly full lives we lead. Even though it may all be “good” “great” “inspiring” etc, it can all start to feel very much as though we are constantly inhaling. To the point it’s actually uncomfortable. When we reach that point, it’s not only that we’re not getting the value from the experiences we’ve already had, but the LAST thing we want is to ‘breathe in more’ so to speak.

So thankful for you that you have this month to exhale and make this whole year truly valuable for you and the world.

Will be very excited to see what emerges on the other side!

I think that’s awesome, Sloane. Sometimes solitude is just what the doctor ordered. And you’re gearing up for the next year, so it’s part of that process. Rock on.
