2017 Accomplishments
Here we are again! It’s the end of another fantastic year. As I reflect on 2017, I think the word of the year would be “growth”. I used to be someone who was not comfortable with change. I like having a plan, having goals, and being able to see what’s ahead of me. Change used to cause me a lot of stress. Over the past two years, I have become much more comfortable with the unknown and have even embraced change as I have experienced how much growth it can provide.
Here is a brief recap of some personal and professional experiences of 2017:
- Continued (multiple) renovations on our home in Kittery, Maine
- Brought on my first intern who happens to be a rockstar Brit with tons of personality and hard work ethic. <3
- Learned when to ask for help and how to accept it
- Made new vendor friends and am inspired by them daily
