Welcome to Bowtiful Life’s 2020 Year in Review!
Well… 2020 kinda sucked BUT there were still some good moments this past year. In this post, I’ve recapped my favorite blog posts from 2020 as well as some of my favorite memories and experiences.
This past year has really been a doozy. This time last year I was newly single, hoping to travel a bunch in 2020 (lol that didn’t work out), navigating a new chapter of my life & finally starting to put taking care of myself first after not doing so for a LONG time.
Flash forward to a year later. 2020 has been hard in so many ways, but it was also a time of major personal growth amidst all the chaos
Would I change some things about this year if I could? Absolutely. Am I grateful for the experiences that I’ve had over the past year and the ways that I’ve changed and grown? Yes, also absolutely! This year has been far from perfect, but there are still plenty of silver linings and life lessons that have come from it.
I’m cautiously optimistic that 2021 will bring us better, healthier, happier times. It won’t be an immediate switch when the clocks hit midnight tonight, but this new year as a whole has so much potential. I’ve got my fingers crossed.
