Love is in the air. At least that’s how the saying goes. February tends to be the month we focus on love—love for your partner, family, and friends. And this month’s issue is going to bring you all of that and more!
But what about self-love? When we start a new year most of us tend to start with getting back to our healthy self. Being done with the holidays and back to healthy eating and working out. That’s self love we all need.
I challenge you to make self-love your mantra this month. To focus on yourself and how to become a better version of yourself. Maybe kick a bad habit and replace it with something else. Or, learn more about your neighbors, community, and really start loving where you live. We all have the ability to make changes and LOVE the new version of these changes. I tell my family and friends all the time, “I’m selfish because I want to be my best self for you. When I put others above all my needs, no one gets the best Alicia, and that’s not fair to anyone.”
Take this month to fall in love. Fall in love with a new hairdo, a workout routine, a recipe, or a restaurant. Fall in love with trying new things and getting out of your comfort zone. Love comes in all shapes and sizes and doesn’t conform to one thing. What will you fall in love with this month and carry into the rest of 2024? For me, I’m going to fall more in love with Scottsdale, getting to know you, and connecting this community together.
Love to you all,
