Narc Free Living’s 2022 Open Letter for 2023!

Regardless of if you pushed through 2022 or made it by the skin of your teeth, YOU made it! My words for 2022 were elevation, intentionality & discipline, & discipleship. 2022 was a year of tremendous growth and advancing the Kingdom of Heaven. My personal phrase this new season is Soft Girl Shannon. You have been introduced to Strong Warrior Shannon. I’m flowing differently in 2023. Don’t wake the warrior. We are always on watch!

Biblically, we celebrated our new year In September. If you know you know! Following YAH always puts you ahead of the world.

For those who are ready to shift & align this is a season of:

Restoration.
Retribution.
Restructuring.
Righteousness.
Obedience.
Breakthrough.
Breakout.
Transformation.
Transparency.
Changing of the guard.
The wealth of the wicked transferred to the righteous.

What were your words for 2022? How did you do?

Personally, I overcame a number of challenges & fell back on some. I’ll be revisiting the areas I missed the mark on as I navigate this upcoming season. Fall down? We get up! My words for 2022 were discipline, intentionality, and elevation. I am building on those for 2023!

Here are a few Lessons Learned from 2022:

Make time for YAH & YOU. I am learning that I cannot pour from an empty cup. Sometimes you have to be selfish regarding yourself and your time. It’s not selfish. It’s self-care. I am resigning as the strong friend! We must prioritize rest, and recuperate so that we can be restored & replenished.
Remember we are all overcoming trauma and abuse. Give yourself grace.
Progress is better than perfection. It’s not always pretty. If you wait on perfect, you’ll always be waiting.
This is my soft girl season. We discussed biblical femininity in CBU fall & summer sessions. It’s crazy how the world has finally caught on! A Proverbs 31 woman, Deborahs, Esthers, – are YAH’s design for women.
Setting boundaries is awesome. Enforcing them is even better! This is a process as we unlearn old techniques to relearn new ones. Let me be transparent…YAH got me together in this area. This is a season of NO for me. A season of LESS IS MORE. I have examined & adjusted my personal & business boundaries to make sure I am in alignment & prepared to shift!
