Your Top Words for 2021

Last week on Instagram, we shared a few of our words for 2021 (like simplify and be) and asked what words YOU would add. You sent some extremely inspiring ideas our way and we had so much fun pouring through them that we wanted to write them all down somewhere to look back on and to give us all a little inspiration for the new year (because it’s already off to a pretty rocky start, isn’t it?)

Below are the words that kept popping up again and again, in no particular order. I love the sense of renewal everyone hopes to have this year after the mess that was 2020. Of course, a date on the calendar does not mean a complete restart- it’s more of a renewed state of mind and a commitment to yourself (and to others) to accomplish what you want to for the year.

Without further ado, your top words for 2021:

  • Resilience

  • Purge

  • Revitalize

  • Selfcare

  • Love

  • Mindful

  • Explore

  • Celebrate

  • Heal

  • Survive

  • Hope

  • Happy

  • Dream

  • Drink

  • Grateful

  • Enjoy

  • Breathe

  • Connect

  • Learn

  • Inspire

  • Reset

  • Reuse/recycle

  • Exhale

  • Laugh

  • Vegan

  • Give

  • Overcoming

  • Relax

The most common word we saw was “love” and that made me smile. You all never cease to inspire us and to bring us joy. May we all do our best this year, whatever that looks like.

Stay safe, friends, and take care of yourselves.!!! xoxo
