Letters to 2021

Hello. Hi. Hi. Hello!

I have a love hate relationship with that salutation when it's used as an ice breaker. Found it interesting when I was on the receiving end of an audience - especially a cheerful one. I hated how it exposed my squeaky nervous voice when I was a presenter - especially when it was difficult to gage if the audience was excited or not. Typing it is a relief. I imagine you responded cheerfully.

This post comes bearing good news. #LettersTo2021 launches on 11 December. Yes fam, we doing it again. I know that for most of you the #Letters series are your favourite time on the blog.

I take it that some of you are new to the #lifeandherlessons space...welcome! I started writing a reflective epistolary at the end of 2018. Since I'm a Netflix and chill junkie I just simply refer to the collection of letters as a series. You're just in time for Season 4. If you can't wait, feel free to binge read the previous years.



2021 has felt like 2020.2. I promise you home girl just stepped aside and came back in a different wig. So much has happened and I'm looking forward to reflecting and unpacking. I need a hectic offload before the next cycle begins.

#LettersTo2021 will also come with a series of conversations with friends on various social media platforms. The line up looks quite exciting and it will definitely extend to the meaningful conversations we have after each letter. While the invitation to come on as a guest to these live sessions is still out, I know most of you prefer having private conversations. Reflections about life and her lessons are sometimes so heavy, sensitive and private to the extent that they leave us vulnerable. So, worry not. That space will still be there for us to offload. The conversations are just making the circle bigger!

If you're new, I promise that it isn't always heavy. There will be time for humour and banter. I promise. These reflections aren't always heavy but they are just real. Adulting is the pits and sometimes there aren't enough flowers to decorate the mess.

If you don't want to miss out on the interactions on social media, follow me on these platforms:

Thank you so much for the support throughout the years. May #LettersTo2021 continue with the tradition of normalising reflective lessons. See you in December 😀
