I recently finished the book Wintering by Katherine May for the second time. I reached for it again because I am having quite the winter — grieving the death of my older brother, feeling the weight of rampant chaos and hate in my nation — and I am trying my very best to lean into it rather than push it away. I had an extremely quiet and somber January, which is not new. What is new is the blanket of sadness that kept me company. I spent much of January in bed, both while sleeping and awake.

Last week, I shared my second annual Freelance Year in Review! You can check out 2023’s rundown too. Very cool collection (and infographic) of beloved newsletters. Johnston’s Liftoff is the perfect guide for anyone of any fitness level who wants to get started lifting. Her program is still the one I follow every time I’m getting back in lifting shape (like, literally right now).
