Realizing This Journey

I am realizing that this is a journey, not a 12 sprint.  We have for so long put ourselves last and now we have to learn to but ourselves first. It's hard, we are women, we have jobs, family, friends, and just everything else that comes our way that we take on.  I feel blessed to be able to learn a lifestyle with not only 10 other wonderful women, but the others that have our backs.  When they say it takes a village...  well I feel that is true.  We cannot do this alone, we need support systems, back ups and positive thinkers.  As we go into week two, we should be proud of our accomplishments so far, whether they are big or small they are accomplishments and they are ours.
