Create Your 2026 Vision

Happy New Year! This episode is your invitation to pause before you sprint into New Year goals. In today’s episode, I share pieces from my 2-Day Annual Planning Retreat, including a powerful reframe on why your dream life is closer than you think, how subconscious programming shapes what you believe is possible, and why the real key to transformation isn’t willpower—it’s alignment, emotional mastery, and self-trust.

You’ll explore how to reflect on your wins (so you don’t miss your own life), why visualization and “observation” matter, and how to become the kind of woman who can hold what she says she wants. This is equal parts mindset, neuroscience, and deep personal truth—designed to help you step into 2026 with clarity, confidence, and excitement.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why reflecting on your wins is a potent step before setting new goals
• How weekly “win tracking” helps you stop living in “not enough” energy
• The quantum-inspired idea that your desires already exist as possibilities—and the real gap is programming, not potential
• How visualization trains your brain’s Reticular Activating System (RAS) to notice opportunities aligned with your vision
• Why “resistance” often isn’t laziness—it’s a lack of internal safety
• The difference between the happiness of pursuit vs. the pursuit of happiness
• How to “insource” the feelings you think you’ll get once you reach the goal
• The surprising reason you may not have what you want yet: avoidance of unwanted emotions
• What emotional mastery actually looks like: the ability to hold duality—desire and discomfort, joy and fear
