Shockingly, I'm not freaking out

November 9, 2025 marks my 28th birthday. As you know, this would typically freak me out. But in not-like-me fashion, I’m excited and energized by this. I’ve felt relaxed all day, open to whatever the day brings me. I’ve had moments of feeling like I’m not using every second to it’s absolute most — but when I snap out of that I remember I wasn’t put on this Earth to use up every single second. I am here to feel, relax, rest and take my time. I am supposed to experience everything in leisure. All of my years taught me that. 27 cemented that.

This isn’t __ things I learned in __ years. This is simply what I can find the courage to share before the clock strikes midnight! Here’s what I’m planning to bring into 28 in no particular order:

• Less! Screen! Time! (We got flip phones. :))

• The price of community is sometimes inconvenience

• The most difficult words for me to spell are: in·con·ven·ience and res·tau·rant

• Love Is All Around You, Even If It’s Not About You -Lord Cowboy

• Who you surround yourself is who you become

• One of my biggest goals: be able to move when I’m 80 > skinnty

• Protein and productivity are so not the point

• Re reading and re watching are skills! I want to do things again and again to find newness every time

• Morning time, pages and movement are non-negotiables

• My greatest love will be a mirror to me. I’ll see everything I need to work on. I guess therapy is a must

• I am the first of my lineage to have the resources, time and space to stop the cycle. It’s not pressure, it’s privilege

• I will invest in the people and places that invest in me. Nothing is simply transactional but there is strength is knowing when to walk away

• It’s on my heart for a reason. Listen

• Less stuff >

• Happiness is an every day choice

Most of these are simple and self explanatory. I plan to bring this energy to 28! I will be more connected while keeping my screen time way down. I will use my mind and my hands to create before I start to question myself. I will, once again, find comfort in spending time with myself regardless of how much I love being with my best friends (hi J and G). I will continue to grow my yoga practice even though teaching is one of the scariest things I have ever done. I will drop my ego at the door every time I teach until it bleeds into every corner of my life. I will find independence, especially while in the most healthy, kind and fun relationship, I’ve ever had the privilege of being part of. I will write, read and create more than I consume.

Change is scary but so is staying the same. I still have time to be everything I want to be. And so do you.

Talk sooner than last time,

28 year old K <3
