Quietude & Re-Discovery: An International Educator's Sabbatical Story

Guidance shared with me using Spirit Mama Oracle Deck March 27, 2024 At the beginning of 2024, unforeseen circumstances nudged/forced me towards a period of self-rediscovery.

Turning 26, living partially and/or fully abroad for the last 7 years, entering my first and hopefully last true-love relationship, and the timing of the changing year are a few.
