This is a reflection episode and a conversation about planning for 2026 in business.

I wanted to slow things down, look back properly, and ask better questions before moving forward. Questions about what you have actually achieved, where you might not be giving yourself enough credit, and what winning really looks and feels like for you next year.

We talk about simplicity, letting go of chaos, and why making things harder than they need to be can feel familiar, even when it is no longer serving you. I share what I am choosing to say no to in my own business, how I am creating more ease, and why planning for 2026 in business does not have to mean doing more.

I also share a personal moment that reminded me how quickly we can make things mean something they do not, and why asking what your future self’s future self would think can cut through overthinking fast. If you are ready to make clearer decisions, back yourself more, and move into 2026 feeling steadier and more intentional then have a listen.

This episode is not a goodbye so stay tuned for more in the future. In the meantime you can find me on instagram on the links below.
