Presence versus Performance
2025 hit me like a bulldozer. There was no amount of reading and research that could have prepared me for this level of intensity, and I want to start this annual review by saying thank you.
I’m grateful to my body and brain for mostly holding up. I’m grateful I have access to spaces and tools such as breath-work, ecstatic dance, Yoga, Gym Sessions, Friends and entrepreneur retreats that have helped support my mental health throughout this journey.
Most of all, I’m grateful to the people in my life – my family, friends, colleagues, and this community – who all showed up in wonderful ways this year.
So much happened, but here’s a quick bullet-point overview before I dive in:
• I want to start this year not focusing only on the goals of what I want to improve (performance), but on expanding on the positive, on what worked, on my strengths (presence). Whatever we focus on, expands! Lets expand our best selves in 2026!
Presence vs Performance, ease and flow is my motto to win in 2026
Best of 2025 - what really worked for me
BEST BOOK: MINDSET TRAINING
This book is my support on how I approach work, business and love. I read it over and over and completed a coaching certification by PQ Institute in 2023.
I will be sharing about Positive Intelligence for Business Success in our upcoming retreat!

BEST HABIT: MORNING MOVEMENT
I am still struggling to win back my mornings as I have a new leadership position at work. But I can see how my facia, mood and mindset are at best when I have at least 15minutes in the morning to move and meditate!
