Happy New Year’s Eve! This time last year, I was freshly home from a life-changing study abroad program in England. I had a year ahead of me to save up money for tuition, so that I could afford my last semester at college, but it also meant a year to focus on this blog.
My word of the year for 2019 was becoming. Personally, I wanted to spend 2019 becoming the best version of myself. Regarding the blog, I wanted to use this “gap year” to cultivate Simply Olivia Grace into the lovely, truthful, honest space that I envisioned it to be. Looking back at 2019, there’s a lot of posts that I loved creating and finding my own voice, but today I put together a list of “the best” thirteen posts of 2019…
1. how to start a journey to yourself
