The word process means a series of actions or steps taken to achieve a particular end. A natural and intentional series of changes.
Process is one of my favorite words to talk about. Because I feel like when I cracked mine—when I realized and accepted what worked for me, I felt like I achieved a superpower. A level up. A way of working that I completely trusted and had unwavering confidence in.
