Five Days. Five Edits. One Extraordinary Year. Jan 12-16

The Edit #176

6_5 theEdit Header

Every December, I vanish.

No phone. No meetings. No distractions.

Just me, my journal, and 24 hours to design the year ahead.

My team knows. My family knows. And honestly? It’s become one of the most sacred rituals in my life.

Because here’s what I’ve learned: the women who create extraordinary years don’t stumble into them. They curate them.

While most people are making resolutions they’ll abandon by February, I’m mapping out a year that feels like art – intentional, elevated, and completely aligned with who I’m becoming.

And each year, I walk through this process with School of Self-Image members in our annual Curated Year Workshop, where we design a year we cannot wait to create.

No hustle. 

No generic goal-setting. 

Just sophisticated, intentional planning for women who want to live a well-lived life.

You can wait for an extraordinary year to happen.

Or you can design one.

→ Design your extraordinary year with me.

With excitement,

The Thought Edit

I create space before I create strategy.

Stillness is where vision begins.

When I pause, everything that’s meant for me rises to the surface – not through force, but through clarity.

The retreat isn’t an escape. It’s a return to myself.

The Feature

The Curated Year Workshop

Tomorrow, we’re looking ahead and designing your 2026 at The Curated Year Workshop inside the School of Self-Image.

Not with recycled resolutions or wishful thinking, but with the kind of intentional planning that turns an ordinary year into a work of art.

Two 2-hour sessions: (Replays provided)

  • December 11 at 4PM ET
  • December 15 at 4PM ET

We’ll walk through my personal framework for curating a year that feels like it was designed by your Future Self – because it will be.

This isn’t about cramming in more goals. It’s about choosing what deserves space in your life and releasing what doesn’t. It’s curation at its finest.

Join the School of Self-Image now to secure your spot for The Curated Year Workshop. Your extraordinary year is waiting.

 

The Podcast

Disappear for 24 Hours… and Become Unrecognizable

I spent more time planning my Christmas dinner than I did planning my life. Sound familiar?

In this episode, I’m sharing why taking 24 hours for yourself isn’t indulgent – it’s essential. You’ll discover the difference between default goals and designed ones, why environment changes everything about how you think, and the exact questions that turn reflection into reinvention.

Plus, hear about the hotel room revelation that changed how I approach every December.
