Anniversary Wisdom: Why Celebration Beats Hustle Every Time
Today begins with intention—a shared morning workout followed by a visit to our favorite spot to commemorate nineteen years of partnership, laughter, and growth together.
It's our wedding anniversary, and I'm making a bold choice: stepping back from the usual hustle for most of this week.
For a brief ceremony, we had lots of laughs…
For an entrepreneur who's built her reputation on consistent content creation and reliable presence, this decision carries weight. Yet here's what I've learned—authentic showing up in business means knowing when to show up differently in life.
This week, I'm choosing connection over content calendars. Love over LinkedIn. Presence over productivity metrics.
But don't click away just yet—I have something valuable waiting for you.
What's Coming Next
For newcomers joining our community (welcome! 👋), this platform has been home to meaningful conversations for over two years. With 170+ published pieces behind us, this marks number 171.
During this journey, I've developed coaching frameworks, connected with extraordinary women building their own paths, and quietly launched a video series that's been gaining momentum. More details on that soon.
Today's message centers on something simple yet revolutionary: permission.
Consider This Your Official Permission Slip:
Rest without justification
Step away from the constant ping of notifications
Embrace a slower rhythm
Choose presence over productivity
Sometimes the most strategic business decision is knowing when to pause.
What's Ahead
This Sunday, I'll be sharing insights about the video series we've been developing—featuring candid conversations, industry experts, and practical wisdom specifically for women navigating their forties and beyond.
Until then, may your week be filled with intention (with some shenanigans thrown in).
Have a great week!
Remember it’s your life. Go the distance. Go Long!
