2026 is NOT a year for pushing…

Hey CEO's

I’ve been keeping things intentionally quiet over here, coloring in the evenings, drinking too much tea, rewatching Ally McBeal (don’t judge me 😅), and half-watching Christmas movies in the background.

Nothing strategic.

→ The kind where you don’t over-explain your decisions.

→ You’re not constantly reopening choices you already made.

→ You move forward without asking 10 people if it’s okay first.

I think a lot of us are craving that energy right now.

Not because we’re stuck, but because we’re done questioning ourselves more than necessary.

✨ A few questions to carry into the week:

Where am I second-guessing out of habit, not truth?
What decisions would feel simpler if I trusted myself more?
What kind of support would actually help me stay steady in January?

You don’t have to answer them perfectly.

Just notice what keeps coming back, especially in the quiet.

💛 If you want support going into the new year…

Not when they burn out.

Not after the crisis.

Now, while there’s still room to do it differently.

Inside the Circle, we focus on:
