    The biggest challenges for me will be to reduce screen time, create a work-life balance, by not working more than 8 hours a day (ugh), and decluttering my home. I will attempt to get outside everyday, exercise everyday and reduce toxins in my home. I will continue to eat vegan, and will work on my upcoming cooking classes for PCC by experimenting with new ingredients and ideas.
