Bravo, Diana! You articulate this so beautifully. I really love what you said about the honest movement of an epiphany. And this line encapsulated it all: "I still feel the delicious pull of that streak - a crowning achievement, or a testament to my failures, depending on how well I've stuck to my plan." Thank you for the new Greek word, too. It's a good one to remember.

Thank you for reading, Alissa! That Greek word is one of my favorites.

Ah this resonates a ton! It’s only when I started focusing on aligning with new identities > goal setting that I felt like I could break free from the claws of tracking every little detail of my life

Fantastic - ‘emphasized discipline over intuition’ so so well put. We know inside us what we need, if we just listen!
