As I recorded this episode from the Lake District, I could feel my whole body exhale. This time of year invites me to slow down, escape the noise and reconnect with what truly matters.

I share how the highs, lows, twists and unexpected lessons of the year have shaped me, and why winter reminds me to rest, reflect and come back to myself without guilt. Being in nature always brings me home, and this trip was no exception.

I talk about the shift into the Year of the Horse and why it feels like a powerful acceleration is coming. This year ahead is about faith, tiny habits, aligned environments and trusting the process even when outcomes feel far away.

I explore how I am preparing for my own rebrand, how I am choosing ease over pressure and why I am entering 2026 with more confidence and clarity than ever before.
