What in your life has you feeling maxed out? Let's talk about fresh starts, letting go of what isn't serving us, and creating space mentally, spiritually and physically. Let's go!

How many times have you put something on the back burner, or dropped it altogether because external circumstances changed? How often do you make excuses for failing to finish something?
