“New Year’s Resolutions” often set us up for failure and make us feel poorly about ourselves. Instead, focus on New Year’s Evolution! Evolving means to gradually develop or change over time. Think of your current coping strategies… What a few areas that you feel confident in? What are some areas that you want to strengthen? Change doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time, consistent practice and support! Reach out to your loved ones and evolve together! #EncourageHopeandHelp #NewYear #Evolve
