Favorite Links Week 4: Year 2025

happy February!
I want 2025 to be a year of dreaming bigger than ever and getting things done (more than ever).
I haven’t shared this yet, but my word of the year is EVOLVE
e·volve
/əˈvôlv,əˈvälv/
verb
1. develop gradually, especially from a simple to a more complex form.
Small steps at a time will gradually take you to the destination you’ve set for yourself.

This article goes from decluttering your physical space to decluttering your digital space to decluttering your schedule, and finally to decluttering your relationships.
I have a group of friends that we get together bi-weekly and talk about life, about work, hold each other accountable, and most importantly are there for each other.
