This episode is a bit different. I'm in a reset moment and sharing it out loud.

I'm talking through what I tried to change in my business in 2025, what didn't work, what I'm keeping, and how I'm approaching 2026 from a more rooted place. This is about rebuilding, not rushing, and letting your business actually match your real life.

I share why my word for the year is "Rooted," what closing and reopening the Lab taught me, how tech decisions pulled me off track, and why the podcast is staying my main marketing vehicle.

If you've been feeling scattered, stretched thin, or unsure what your next move should be, this episode is an honest look at slowing down so you can move forward with more clarity.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:

• What "rooted" means for my business in 2026
• Why I stopped forcing changes that felt heavy
• How tech decisions derailed my focus
• Why the podcast is my main marketing anchor
• How I'm rebuilding without burning out

…And More!
