Ever had a year that absolutely tested you?
That was 2024 for me.
2025 didn’t let up, either.
Honestly, I thought I’d seen it all in business.
But these past 18 months? They rewrote the rulebook.
Surviving is one thing.
But growth? That’s a choice.
Here’s what I did differently in 2025:
- Showed up at more in-person networking events.
- Took my place on a speaking panel, nerves and all.
- Rebranded my agency – from the ground up. (New name, new look, new energy.)
- Rethought the way I run my team, and changed what wasn’t working.
- Redesigned and rebuilt my website.
- Welcomed new clients who pushed us in ways I never expected – and made it fun.
- Said yes to working with an agency coach. That opened up new strategies, timely advice and tough truths.
Was it comfortable? Absolutely not.
Did it pay off? Ask me in a year.
But I do know this – you can’t move forward if you’re clinging to what’s safe.
In the Chinese zodiac, 2025’s Year of the Snake was all about transformation. Shedding old skin, leaving behind what no longer serves you, and emerging stronger. That’s exactly how it felt.
Now, we approach the Year of the Horse – a year known for bold moves, dynamic energy, and not being afraid to break the mould. It’s about running with new ideas and backing yourself, even if the ground feels a bit shaky.
If you’ve been through a rough patch in your career or made a big leap that scared you, I see you.
Let’s share the real stuff – not just the wins, but the work it takes to get there.
