75 - My Word for 2026
Do you choose a word for your year? I really wanted to share this episode with you in December 2025, but it wasn't quite ready yet. I was very much in the doing doing doing (which definitely relates to the word I'm choosing this year!)...
I needed the time to pause and reflect over the break to refresh and get really clear on where I'm going this year- and I know it was exactly what I needed.
In this episode, you'll hear:
- My word for the year and the lesson I needed to relearn at the end of 2025 (the same one I often end up coaching my clients on)
- How I bridged the gap from going from 1:1 to a group format (it didn't happen overnight)
- Why giving yourself permission to run your business your way is not only "allowed"- it will actually make it sustainable for you in the long run
- Why this is the perfect segue into my next series coming next week: How I Organize My Days, Weeks and Months as a Coach
My intention for this episode is to help you reflect on where you want to go in 2026 and to give you permission run your business on your own terms.
