Go to my SubstackEvery year, without fail, something happens to me during the last week of December.
It’s not subtle.
I wake up with an almost irresistible urge to clean out all the things. Closets. Cabinets. Drawer...
“The most wonderful time of the year.”
That phrase can feel painfully out of sync when your calendar is overflowing, your nervous system is already stretched thin, and the unspoken expectation is tha...
