Happy New Year!!✨ How are you really feeling today?? Aligned?? A new year is always loaded with expectations, dreams, pressure, hope, and fear. It's kind of overwhelming. But this year feels different to me. I have been completing challenges, in the last month, that didn’t just help me focus, they cleared the clutter from my mind. I realized I wasn’t unfocused, just really overloaded. Collecting ideas, saving prompts, stockpiling “someday” information. My mind was busy, busy, busy. Last night, I had over 1,500 mobile notes. This morning, 139. No rereading. No second-guessing. Delete, delete, delete. This morning, I boxed up clothes I’ve been holding onto and took them to the shelter. I trimmed down the Skool communities I belong to. And now I am working on closing the many, many, many browser tabs that have my computer breathing like it’s running a marathon. This isn’t about decluttering for the sake of it. It is about making space for my coming abundance. I hope you are also taking steps to set yourself up for success this year. Share your tips and tricks with me!! 2026 = Bliss. 🌱

Pause for a second and picture this… It’s December 31, 2026. You’re looking back over the year that just wrapped. What do you see? Maybe you finally followed through on something you kept putting off. Maybe you created more consistently and felt proud of your work. Maybe you took a leap that scared you a little, but stretched you in the best way. Or maybe you simply showed up differently… with more clarity, confidence, or ease. Here’s the thing though. This year is going to pass no matter what. The real question is what changes because you were intentional about it. So, what’s one meaningful thing you want to say you did in 2026? Big or small. Practical or creative. Personal or business-related. Drop it below and let’s put some energy behind it✨

The 🌸 Built to Be Seen Summit is a spring activation for midlife women Skool hosts who are ready to step into visibility with intention — and build businesses designed to be seen, shared, and scaled. You already have experience. You already have the insight. Now it’s time to simplify, position yourself clearly, and grow with focus. Inside this summit and community, visibility is strategic — not performative. We focus on productizing your expertise, building traffic and community, using AI as leverage, and monetizing Skool communities without adding complexity or burnout. Interested in being Speaker? Get to Level 5 - applications will be posted next week! Check out our NEW About Page & Graphics!!

One thing I wish more women 40–60 knew: 👉 You are early, not late. Midlife women are the fastest-growing audience online — and yet there are still so few creators speaking directly from lived experience. That means: - High demand - Low competition - Deep trust Your experience matters.Your perspective is needed.And someone in this community needs exactly what you know. So let’s flip this into an introduction + visibility moment 👇 📊 Answer this poll below: Which area of your midlife expertise do you most often help other women with? COMMENT PROMPT (this part matters 👇) After you vote, introduce yourself in the comments with one sentence only: “I help midlife women with ________, and one thing I know from experience is ________.” No pitching. No links. No overthinking. Just real experience → real value. This is how we normalize midlife women owning their expertise and being seen for it. 💥 I’ll jump in first in the comments too! 👇 Your turn.

I’m on my way home after the most incredible 10 days in Mexico City with my two adult daughters — one of those trips that truly fills your cup. We wandered the streets of Roma Norte and Condesa, soaked up the culture and history of Coyoacán, and spent time at the Frida Kahlo Museum. If Mexico City isn’t already on your bucket list, move it way up — it’s magic. Because of travel, it’ll take me about 72 hours to fully land back home, so responses may be slower than usual. Thanks so much for your patience. I’ll be resuming more activity in the community after December 29th, and I’ll see you then. Wishing you a peaceful, joy-filled holiday season ✨I can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll be creating in 2026 as we continue building businesses that honor your experience, your energy, and your vision. 💛 Brenda
