Orion, Nichola, Sebastian, Doug and I enjoyed our family tradition of bringing in the New Year with a quiet dinner at our favorite Indian restaurant on New Year’s Eve followed by a fun family walk the next morning at Hidden Villa to see the farm animals, and especially the tractors for Sebastian.

We all so enjoy our time together, whether it’s a quiet evening at home or an international adventure. It doesn’t get old, boring or stressful. Our time together is satisfying and fulfilling for all of us, as we are all aligned with making things work for everyone.

One of the secrets to our continuous good times together is that we work through any difficult or challenging times as they come up. Because of our shared commitment to honesty and trust with one another, we don’t leave difficulties unresolved or shove them under the rug to re-surface another day.

This means we can truly enjoy the moment and treasure the time we have together. Such a joy! I am so grateful.

To begin the New Year, I am flying to Miami for a retreat with my coach and then on to Jamaica for a week of relaxing on the beach, hiking the Blue Mountains, and soaking up the laid back, reggae culture and music. Maybe I’ll find a fun place to go dancing.

This will be the first time I’ve been to Jamaica, and I’m traveling solo, which I haven’t done in a while. I’m looking forward to the adventure.
