How are you starting your year off? A new year often comes with bold proclamations: New Year, New You. And while it sounds exciting – who wouldn’t want to step into the new year as a more refined version of themselves? I invite you to pause and ask yourself:

Do I really need a new version of me?

Think about it. You are where you are today because of the strengths you already possess, the relationships you’ve built, and the challenges you’ve overcome. Instead of striving for reinvention, what if we focused on owning the version of ourselves that got us here – while intentionally driving toward what’s next?

This year, let’s reframe the narrative. 

Instead of chasing a “new you,” ask yourself: What’s the one thing that could drive the biggest transformation for me this year?

This is your opportunity to take the driver’s seat – to set the direction, press the gas, and make intentional decisions about where to focus your energy. As I shared in Spend Your Energy Where You’ll Get a Return, life is your fault, which means this is your moment to embrace the power of choice.

Let’s step into You 2.0, the intentional version of yourself who asks:

  • What do I want to accomplish?
  • What do I want to be known for?
