Introduction
A new year brings new opportunities to grow, evolve, and realign with your purpose. As 2025 winds down, I’ve been reflecting deeply on what I’ve learned this year — and how I want to shape 2026. Instead of setting vague resolutions, I’m creating intentional goals built around clarity, balance, and long-term vision.
