New Year’s Message 2026
I just realized that I hadn’t updated this since 2023. So my new year message is getting back to the basics. So I have decided to make sure to keep my first love of blogging going stronger than ever.
2026 Goals
I’m working on all the aspects of me. From body and mind I plan to attack what I need. I’ve already started well before the ball dropped. This past Chrismas I asked for a Hatch Restore 3 and it has to be the best gift. It’s allowing me to be more serious about my sleep and wellness. One thing I’ve enacted was a strict 10pm sleep time. Unless I’m at an event I’ll be in bed and on time. This helps me focus.
Relationships Upheavals
I ended a few relationships for the better. It hurt. There are a few that are holding on by a thread. I’ve said this before on the podcast, Conversations with Toi, sometimes natural is the best way to end things. If I’m honest the growing pains of life is adjusting to many changes. So in 2026 here goes nothing.
What sparks you in the New Year
Drive? Creating? Is it building! Is it collaborating? Sometimes collaboration is a means of surviving and thriving. As much as I love being in my home and not interacting with others all the time, I’ve learned how much I need others. What can you do to reach across the aisle? Do those things more! Don’t be so caught up in not taking care of just you! Of course take care of you but not so much that you forget to help others around you!
My spark is personal. It’s about making sure that my cup stays full. No more depletion that looks like being a good wife or mother. If you ever held either title you know how both makes you question if you’re selfish or not to simply wanting more.
Thanks for an Amazing Year
This year has been a little better than the last. I had a few more collaborations and partnerships. I am grateful for that. Also this year I feel like I have leveled up in major ways too. So I hope that whatever you looked for this year has come true. In 2026 I am looking for more collaborations, brand trips and more fun in this work life balance.
