[Newsletter] The Comfort of Routine, the Promise of Change

Hi there,

People love routine. It brings predictability, a sense of control, and a framework for our hopes, aspirations, and expectations.

Every 365 days, we get the chance to close one chapter and begin another—celebrating what went well, letting go of what didn’t, and setting intentions for what’s next.

Whether that means a new job, a lifestyle change, or a move to a new place, I hope the year ahead meets your wishes with a bit of luck and a lot of possibility.

In the meantime, enjoy today’s reads.
