There’s a certain energy in the air this time of year – that “let’s just coast until January” vibe.
But not for me.
I want to end this year with a bang – not crawling across the finish line, but dancing across it in fabulous heels with a glass of champagne in hand.
Why? Because how we finish matters.
The energy we close the year with is the same energy we carry into the next one. And I don’t want 2026 to start with a sigh – I want it to start with a spark.
For me, finishing strong isn’t about hustling harder.
It’s about turning the last stretch of the year into a celebration of who I’ve become – and a bold declaration of where I’m headed next.
It’s about tying up loose ends, elevating my daily habits, showing up fully for what matters, and creating a wave of momentum that carries me into the new year already on fire.
This season isn’t about slowing down – it’s about savoring and stretching. And I’m determined to make these final weeks count.
Want to do the same?
On this week’s podcast, I’m sharing five ways I’m ending the year with a bang – a mix of mindset shifts, mini challenges, and playful rituals to help you finish 2025 on a high note.

Creating Your Strong Finish
It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.
~ Jim George
It’s easy to let the year fade out. Coast through November. Sleepwalk through December. Then, it’s panic planning come January.
But the women who create extraordinary lives? They finish with intention. They know that the energy you end with is the energy you begin with.
A strong finish isn’t about cramming in more goals or pushing through exhaustion. It’s about honoring what you’ve created, completing what matters, and building momentum that carries you forward.
This week: Finish one thing that will make you feel proud of your 2025.
