Heather Land Instagram – 2024… You taught me so much. You pushed me, shaped me, molded me, and CHANGED me.
Showing up here hasn’t been easy this year. I let life overwhelm me, and before I knew it, I’d dug myself into a dark hole I didn’t have the energy to climb out of (until recently). What overwhelmed me? My own brain. Ruminating on everything. Every negative thing on earth—and even the positives I somehow turned into negatives.
—The year I fell out of love with comedy only to fall back in love with it when I realized I don’t have to just be the “I Ain’t Doin It” lady.
—This year made me take responsibility for the role I’ve played in my misery and negativity.
—This year I had to set boundaries in friendships.
—This year I struggled with my hair loss, peri-menopause, and all of the non-glamour things that come with it.
—This year I continued deconstructing and reconstructing my faith (a really tough one that nobody likes to talk about).
—This year I hit my rock bottom emotionally in a lot of ways.
Finding myself in mid-life has been a crisis—and maybe it needed to be. Sometimes you have to sit in the dark to truly appreciate the light. And y’all, I do.
I’m starting to feel excited again—about what? No idea! But who cares? Whatever’s coming is going to be good. Even when it’s not good, it still is. I’ve told myself that enough times to actually believe it (isn’t that the point?).
It’s not lying to yourself to speak as if the goodness has already arrived. You’re not denying reality—you’re just choosing which reality to tune into. Like Joe Dispenza says, it’s like changing the radio station. These days, I’m choosing something a little more upbeat. Thank you for sticking with me.
HAPPY NYE!!!!! 💖
