As we leave 2022 behind and jump right into 2023, it is always a great idea to reflect on what we have accomplished and remember those we have loved and lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
May Pel\u00e9, Black Stalin, Mama Coco, Blaxx, and many others we have lost in 2022 rest in eternal peace.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I am grateful to be entering 2023 with more life, strength, and health than I did in 2022. I am thankful for friends and family who listened, encouraged me, and showed me that it was okay to take a break, rest, and heal. I was inspired and motivated by members of the SocaMom community<\/a> who continued to do great things from opening restaurants and being featured in magazines and books to gracing billboards in Times Square and so much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This year I didn’t do as much as I usually do. I spent time resting, trying new things, and figuring out how I will want to spend the rest of my time now that the kids are getting older. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve discovered new things that I really enjoy doing like podcasting. What I really love about my new podcast with my husband is that our kids get to listen to us talk. I don’t know much about my mom and dad’s personalities, and I am so glad that my kids can hear what we were like as kids and how we interact as adults from our own mouths. I feel like we are leaving a neat little archive for them and having a blast doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPodcasting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
