Today was day for me to listen to my body- i needed a rest/recuperation day. I actually took a nap (which I never do). Feeling reflective and whole this evening. I'm very much looking forward to starting a New Year with my wonderful crew. It's really an arbitrary thing - we can choose to re-commit at anytime but there is something that feels fresh and hopeful about a brand new year! This is the year that I finally step into who I am and stop hiding- it about damn time! Here is my Sovereign/Queen goal for this Month: GOAL: Outreach! This is the year I put myself out there! Promotion for my book and youth programs on Linked-In, Promotion for Ravenwolf on IG. Create (this goes hand in hand with my Magician) social strategy and shoot and post. REASON: This is the missing link to my success and it is my Achilles heel. I also want to model this struggle and success to my daughter and normalize the journey for her. ALLIES: Book-Youth programs- @Philip Folsom , Makai Folsom & @Morgan Vicki Todd Ravenwolf- @Philip Folsom Makai Folsom @Michelle Lorusso @Nichole OBrien INTEGRATION:I will timeblock work times for these projects throughout my week. i will plan for the following week on Friday as I close out my week LEARNING: Becoming comfortable with being on camera, delivery, cadence, editing... SACRIFICE: I will have to let go of the need to be perfect before putting myself out there. Let go of some freedom in my schedule, (time blocking). Here's to the year we all finally let go of the things that are holding us back and step into our full power! Happy 2026!

This is going to be a long one, and is more for me tonight than the group. Protein: ✔️ Water: ✔️ Movement: ✔️ Went for a run this morning before work as I didn’t want to be out this afternoon. But after work ended, I hit the weights hard to burn off frustrations I had built up during the day. Yes, it was a punishment, and not totally focused or productive. I know that is not healthy, but after today I needed to crawl away hurting and have my mind elsewhere. Leadership: Today challenged me personally, but gave me the opportunity to reflect on myself and the darker aspects that I struggle with. Things happened at work that I do not agree with, but had to go along with. The first situation put me into a weird spot, but also left me no voice to make a difference. I had to set aside my pride, rank, and experience in order to follow what I still feel was not necessary. I hate that I did it, and am trying to see it from the point of view that “it was the responsible course of action” to take overall for everyone involved, even if it caused stress to those I should protect. The second incident was more the moral high ground. I knew what I was doing was wasting time, and resources that may have been better spent elsewhere, but there was a sliver of chance it was partly true, and I couldn’t risk that being ignored. I know I made some people upset today, made their day much harder, and wasted funds, but it had to be done in my mind. I remained steadfast, stood my ground, and burned some bridges for sure. But, tonight and tomorrow morning I will be able to look myself in the eye when I look in the mirror, and to me that means more than anything else. This all combined with the news of a co-worker, leader, and friend who passed away last night. Someone I respected and would follow without question. Who had so much going for them, and succeeded at every step, and had it ripped away so easily. This one hurts. It’s made me look at myself and see where I’m lacking in my own life. What would be said as my final send off, and if it’s what I want to be remembered as.

Happy New Year’s Eve! 🥳 Got up and worked out first thing- rowing and light weights. Protein and water low. Leader habit- had lunch with a coworker and friend- said yes when I wanted to say no. Glad I did- being uncomfortable is where the growth happens.

Movement- walking with friends Water and protein low Leader habit- helping my son towards a goal of his. Today I was reminded that people pleasing only causes me turmoil. If I don’t use my voice and speak clearly- I will suffer. I have a choice and I need to choose more wisely. In addition, I can’t drown myself when I make poor decisions- time to be more responsible!

Movement - Morning Run + Walk Water - ✅ Protein - Not quite Leader Habit - Reading Wolfpack by Abby Womack (recommend) inspiring + leadership and listening to podcasts (always learning).
