Ariana Grande Reflects on 2023: “One of the Most Transformative, Challenging, Yet Happiest Years of My Life”

Ariana Grande is feeling all of the feels.

With 2023 rapidly drawing to a close and a new musical chapter on the horizon, the songbird has hatched a lengthy reflection on the year.

Opening up in earnest, Grande – who has been the subject of headlines regarding her return to work and her personal life (including her new boo Ethan Slater) – the chart-topper candidly shared that she’s been through high highs and low lows.

Full story below…

Taking to Instagram, she wrote:

“one of the most transformative, most challenging, and yet happiest and most special years of my life. there were so many beautiful and yet polarized feelings. i’ve never felt more at the mercy of and in acceptance of what life was screaming to teach me. i’ve never felt more fulfilled by or present in my work, being able to cherish every moment. i gave everything i could have possibly given of my heart and of myself to the projects i was fortunate enough to be a part of and learned so much from every brilliant, beautiful, soul that i had the privilege of creating art with and crossing paths with this year.

i have never felt more pride or joy or love while simultaneously feeling so deeply misunderstood by people who don’t know me, who piece whispers together and make what they want out of me and their assumptions of my life. i have learned how much more important one of those things is than the other.

i have never felt more tightly held or fiercely protected by those who love and understand me (friends, family, and fans alike). i feel safe, even amidst so many things i’d usually be afraid of. i am listening to and trusting myself, even when fear or trauma tells me not to.

i am reacting to things that deserve my energy only and removing and protecting myself from things that do not.”

“i am so eternally grateful for all of the feelings i was lucky enough to feel so deeply this year. mine and Galinda’s alike. the unfathomably hard ones and the inexplicably happy ones. i feel more human than ever. i feel more deeply than ever. i feel softer and stronger, all at once.

i am wrapping you all in a cocoon of love and wishing you a very happy, healthy new year. if you ever feel misunderstood or alone, just remember that it will pass and you are not. take a deep breath and know that you are so incredibly loved.

i cannot wait for next year. :)”

Roll on 2024!
