Aww, I just love your reflections and adore your writing and YouTube channel Molly. I'm now 52 and wish I had had the courage many years ago drop those things that felt so 'forced'. But here I am with my courage doing just that and I love it! Being diagnosed with MS 10 years ago was a huge kick up the b** and again that was another lesson. I let a huge 'must do and go, go, go' mentality slide off my shoulders and learnt to accept my pace which was altered now by my condition. A true wake up call from the Universe shall we say. Please carry on being authentic Molly ❤️ and living a life true to your calling. Sending you and Skye lots of love xxxxxx

Such a beautiful reflection! Thank you! I wish I had those insights by my 30th birthday, it took another 2 decades to get to know and accept who I am. But better late than never.

Such beautiful and wise words. Thank you for sharing. My 20s were a mess but they did help me to get here. I'm finding the closer I edge to 40, I'm getting more and more settled into my body and aligning the exterior life with the internal. I'm rather excited going into the new decade with a little more conviction in who I am.

Thank you so much for sharing these deeply personal aspects of your very being. A great message to just be who want to be, rather than trying to please other people. I have never heard the term "hustle culture" before. However, I looked it up and I know exactly what you mean. I've known a few people really damage their health with that way of life. Interestingly enough, I have recently chosen to reduce my working hours in order to prioritise my wellbeing. I'm enjoying having more time to do the activities I love: hiking, cycling, meditation, playing music, reading, gardening, meditation, spending time with friends and family. I feel very fortunate to be in a position to do this. I always enjoy reading your emails. Thank you for brightening my day!

Thanks Molly for sharing. I used to care what people thought of me and dress a certain way but now at 72 years old I do my own thing and don't care what others think.💚
