As I am about to head out to hopefully complete my to-do list, this is what's on my mind.
I'm wondering, are you also feeling the weight of the end of the year?
The emails. The marketing. The sales. The self-help tips and hacks.
All the noise that rushes in right about now.
Because honestly, I'm feeling it too.
And I've felt that quiet pressure that says I should have an end-of-the year plan complete and 2026 planned out. An email series running, planned posts. Something perfectly timed and polished.
Because how else would women in midlife know the ways I support and walk alongside them? And yes, I understand that marketing matters. Networking matters. Visibility matters.
And yet... the very last thing I want to do is add to your plate. Add to your stress. Be another email to open. Another post asking something of you.
So, I want to say this "out loud" for myself and you too.
*You have permission to lean into the end of the year.*
Lean into the holidays. The family and friend time. Lean into the quiet mornings, candle-lit evenings, slow moments, and beautiful gatherings. To be present in whatever this season looks like for YOU.
You don't need to figure out your health plan for the next year, right now. You don't need resolutions, right now. You don't even need to decide on a word, unless it comes gently, on it's own.
If you're able, take a little quiet time. Step away when you can. Journal. Pray. Sit in stillness. And if clarity comes, wonderful. If it doesn't, that's ok too.
There will still be sales the week between Christmas and New Year's. There will still be programs after January 1. There will still be time to decide.
It's OK if you don't have 2026 mapped out when you wake up on January 1. You are not behind.
So here's where I'm at. I'm practicing what I "preach".
I'm choosing not to burn at both ends right now.
I'm choosing not to flood your feed or inbox.
I'm choosing presence over pressure. I'm leaning into the end of the year cherishing the moments with those I cherish. 🥰
You may hear from me between Christmas and New Year's. If not, you will hear from me right at the start of January. Because I do have some really lovely things I can't wait to share. ❤
But for now... we rest, we enjoy, we put down the pressure for 2026. We lean in. We let this season be what it's meant to be.
You're right on time.
You always are.
Sending you so much love. 🤍
