What if 2026 isn't asking you to start over — but to finally start as yourself?

In this episode of The Energy Shift Podcast, Ilana Kosakiewicz shares the energetic themes shaping 2026, exploring self-leadership and learning to begin differently as we step into a brand-new cycle. She unpacks the numerology of a Year One, the Lunar New Year gateway, and how February sets the tone for conscious beginnings and embodied change.

2026 is the year of doing things differently — thinking differently, acting differently, planning differently, and honouring your energy instead of pushing through it.

In this episode, Ilana explores:

• The overarching energetic themes of 2026 and what a Year 1 cycle truly asks of you
• How identity evolves through cycles — and why many women are feeling an internal reset right now
• Why this year is about embodied self-leadership, stronger boundaries, and nervous-system-led growth
• How self-leadership, boundaries, nervous system health and self discipline become essential sustainable foundations this year
• The energetic role of the Lunar New Year and February as a reset point
• How the new & full moons support old release and aligned intention-setting
• How Mercury Retrograde in Pisces invites slower thinking, reflection, and alignment before action

This episode is for anyone who feels ready to move forward — but only in a way that honours their body, boundaries, and truth.
