Ever spend 90 minutes untangling yarn…and love it?

We drove home from Thanksgiving on Monday morning. Packed up and left my folks’ house in Connecticut around 5:15, dropped the kids right at school five hours later. By the time I got home and unloaded the car, I was wiped.

It was a beautiful few days — family, celebration, my parents’ 50th anniversary (!!!) — but it was also early-morning road trips, nonstop conversation, sleeping on the floor of the TV room. Monday afternoon left me with a full heart but an empty tank.

How cute are my parents?

And the next morning, when I opened Instagram, the whole world seemed to be shouting:

“Finish strong!”
“It’s not too late to crush Q4!”
“Push! Go! Hurry!”

Gross! I rolled my eyes, closed the app, and pulled out my book instead.

You know what I didn’t need? Strangers in my phone berating me with “motivational” messages. I needed a moment to recalibrate. Something soft. Something that let me come back to myself instead of bracing against everyone else’s urgency.

On Tuesday, I felt heavy. Sloggy. Like I was wading through thick air. The idea of “hitting the ground running” felt impossible — not because I don’t love my work (oh my word, I love it), but because my body simply wasn’t ready to be decisive or strategic or productive yet.

So, after I dropped the kids at school, I picked up the yarn I bought recently (I’m teaching myself to knit a hat), and tried to wind it into a ball so I could get started. It somehow kept getting more and more tangled despite how careful I was being. And yet winding that yarn was infinitely more appealing to me than staring at a screen, catching up on messages, figuring out how to “crush” the last month of the year.

For 90 minutes, I sat quietly turning a knot of yarn into a smooth, perfect ball. No urgency. No timeline. No guilt. Just the gentle, rhythmic satisfaction of letting my mind and nervous system settle in their own time.

Really settling into that slowness felt so good, I only wanted more of it. So I bagged work and drew a bath. Did a face mask. Watched some really indulgent TV. Journaled. Meditated. Savored.

Because if you want to opt out of hustle culture, guess what. You have to opt out of hustle culture.

And trust what flows in when you do.

What flowed in for me when I was ready was:

• A delicious new offer that has all of the spaciousness and lightness we actually need as we close out the year

• Clarity on a small but powerful change I want to make to my signature program so it feels more expansive and aligned

• A full content strategy & theme for 2026; I could have efforted this for weeks…but it downloaded in about 25 minutes when I made the space

• My word for the new year, with the feeling of a friend tapping me on the shoulder saying, “There you are.”

All because I stopped pushing long enough to listen.

This is the part it can be so easy to forget in business:

Clarity doesn’t respond to force. It arrives when we give ourselves room to hear it.

Because December isn’t a month for hustling yourself into exhaustion — it’s a month for listening. For recalibrating. For remembering who you are and where you’re going.

So… I built a space for that.

For you, and for the person you lean on most.

It’s the Solstice-Inspired Business Activation, and it’s a 90-minute session designed to bring you back to clarity, confidence, and energetic alignment — with your business bestie sitting right beside you.

A little Reiki.
A little tarot.
A grounded, honest conversation about what’s next.
A path forward that actually feels like you.

And because generosity feels like the right energy to close this year:

The first 5 duos get the entire experience for $222.
After that, it moves to $333.

You can save your spot here if it’s calling to you:

If your system is asking for a reset… if you’ve been craving direction but feel too tired to force it… if you want clarity without pressure — this is your space.
