Happy 2023!

I hope you had a blast celebrating the new year with your loved ones! 2022 sure did teach us a lot of lessons and I’m ready for more this year—I hope you are too!

I’m welcoming in this new year with a short series of podcast episodes  on what alignment in 2023 alignment looks like  for me. I talk  a lot about  how aligning ourselves with our goals is important not only to our business, but also to our overall wellbeing - mental, physical, spiritual

My first lesson in 2023 Alignment is TAKING A PAUSE.

I’ve been styling, coaching, and working for myself since 2009 - and it’s been so fun. I’ve worked with amazing people, learned so much about myself. And have been doing the same things for over a decade. My life has shifted radically since my divorce in 2019. I’m happier, healthier, and have new desires on the horizon.

So as 2022 came to a close,  I’ve been asking myself -  at What could be next? What else can I do? What do I want to do? What’s something totally different that lights me up in the same way?

Reflecting on these questions- about what ELSE is out there -  really excites me. That feeling of excitement lets me know I’m on the right path and for me, that path in 2023 is a PAUSE.

In this episode, I’ll share:

  • How taking a pause - whatever a pause looks like for you-  is actually a BENEFIT
  • My motivations on a taking a pause
  • How to tell if you really need a pause
  • For 2023, I invite you to contemplate what taking a pause could mean for you - whether it’s a pause from social media, hustle culture, a service or offering that feels like it’s dragging you down, a job, relationship, friendships, watching TV. PAUSING gives you power to reflect on what is truly the right thing, in the right time, for you.

    This episode is really personal for me and I hope you’ll take away a lesson or two from this one.

    Please share with me what you're pausing this year. Tell me what you're getting rid of this year. Send me a DM!

    To your 2023 evolution,

    Sydney
