5 Powerful Journaling Lessons I Learned From Chris Jericho’s The Complete List Of Jericho

There’s a lot to love about journaling. It’s therapeutic, helps to reflect on thoughts, provides a space to zone out and creates the opportunity for self-growth through interrogating who you are and who you want to be.
