In this episode, I’m finally naming a shift that has been simmering for a long time: I’m done clinging to previous versions of myself, my business, and especially the online business space that shaped so much of my early entrepreneurship.

A new era. A new way of being in my work and in my life.

I share the two big pivots guiding my business in 2026:

(1) moving fully into an IRL, community-rooted model across Western New York and surrounding regions, and
(2) letting go, once and for all, of the narratives, delusions, and false promises that dominate the online business world.

I also talk about reclaiming the “woo” I’ve believed in long before it was commodified on Instagram — the real magic found in presence, intuition, energy, and everyday moments. And I explain why stepping away from the online space is helping me recover my clarity, creativity, and courage.

You’ll hear how I’m rebuilding my business using real relationships, real conversations, and real-world data — not trends, templates, or algorithms. And I offer ideas for listeners who feel stuck, burnt out, or confused about how to plan for 2026 in a world where online growth is no longer the golden ticket.

This is a grounded, honest, and hopeful conversation about stripping everything down to what’s true, what’s needed, and what’s right in front of you.
