We’re veering a bit off the design course today to talk about something that’s been on Juli’s mind- labels and identities- and how they can have a lasting impact on our lives.
Labels don’t just describe us; they can influence our behavior and alter our mindset. We’ll share our own labels that have come to “describe us” over the years and how we’d like to change the negative labels and redefine them into positive affirmations.
New Year New You? Nope- New Year, New Label.
