There’s a different kind of clarity that arrives at the end of the year.
Not the type wrapped in glitter or resolutions, but the kind that sits in your chest and says,
“Tell the truth. Call it like it is.”

So here it is.

This year grew me.
In ways I didn’t expect and in ways I wasn’t ready for.
It sharpened parts of me that had been quiet, and softened parts of me that had been bracing for too long.

And now, as everything around us begins to speed up, I feel myself slowing down in a deeply intentional way.

Because something is shifting.

I’ve been preparing the December workshop, What’s Luxury Got to Do With It?
I’ve talked about it, hinted at it, and planned to offer it before the year closed.

But the truth is, the timing isn’t right.
Not because I’m unprepared.
Not because the work isn’t powerful.
But because the groundwork that’s unfolding behind the scenes deserves its own room to breathe.

I’m choosing to delay the workshop.
Not cancel.
Not abandon.
Just shift.

To let my audience, my growth, and my voice synchronize before I open the door to something that deserves a full-body yes.

And part of that shift is what’s coming next.

My article with Women Thrive Media, The Year of Audacity, will be released soon.
It is personal.
It is honest.
And it is a public declaration of the quiet uprising I have been living in real time.

Soon after, I will be making my podcast debut on The Thought Resonance Show.
A microphone.
A bit of video presence.
A new kind of conversation.

Both are global audience platforms that introduce the fullness of The Luxury Coach, not just the architecture around it.

These moments aren’t small.
And they’re not accidental.

This is a season of intention for me.
A season of trusting the pace instead of rushing the process.
A season of letting the soil firm underneath me before I plant anything new.

And if you’re feeling your own quiet shift, your own reordering, your own inner voice nudging you toward something you can’t quite name yet…
know this:

You’re not confused.
You’re not hesitating.
You’re preparing.

Some seasons aren’t for pushing.
They’re for becoming.

And when the next season arrives, you’ll feel it in your bones the same way I do.

A powerful new year is coming.
One built on intention, not urgency.

And when I walk into it, I’m bringing all of me.

While you’re here, enjoy the seasonal gift I curated for you.
Just something small to carry you through the close of the year.

Stay Close.
