I’m still brainstorming my word but I’m leaning heavily toward “Strong.”
This isn’t just physical, but that’s a big part of it. Before the cancer I was big on strength. My weight almost didn’t matter to me as much as my strength did. I lifted weights, worked out a lot. I loved how strong I was getting! Then I got my mastectomy and have since lost a lot of upper body strength.
My financial strength is a bit shaky too. Decades of being a single mom, robbing Peter to pay Paul, have caught up with me. I really just want to simplify, get my finances together, and start living my financial life with more purpose. I want my finances to be strong enough to support my values.
Mentally I want to be stronger too. This anxiety is crippling to someone like me. I’m an extrovert. A people person. To feel so anxious about doing things I usually love to do makes me sad and angry. I want to start working on that. I want to be proactive in reaching out for help. I want my mind to be strong enough for me to live as my true self.
And I want my spirit to be stronger. I started this site because I believed there was a need for a community like this. But look what happened this year. I completely melted down! That’s because I lacked the confidence to know that what I was doing was good and important and to work through challenges instead of running from them. I want to continue forward with the FNC and with BF as places where people can feel accepted, get good information, and be inspired to live their best healthy lives and I want my spirit to be strong enough to see me through the up’s and the downs.

Ohhhh good word. And the best part about it is that the word can do a lot to inform how you view new experiences, ideas and challenges. Can you think of some things you haven’t been able to do over the years because of various restrictions (location, parental duties, etc.) that you could envision now that you are making some life changes?
