Happy August!
These last few weeks have been. . . strange for me. I’ve had some health issues that have forced me to work less and focus on resting and recovering. Being still has never been a strong suit for me, and I’ve tried to see this whole experience as an opportunity to grow. As I am slowly transitioning back into part-time work this week, I’m feeling very grateful to be feeling better.
I hope you enjoy this month’s resource round up.
