In December of last year, my beloved client Stephanie was laid off from her high-paying sales job.

“Who am I without {this role}?” is one of the most popular questions I hear women navigating a transition ask themselves.

As a former Yoga Teacher, I always loved the saying—how you get into the pose is just as important as how you get out of the pose. Breathe slow, be mindful, move with intention.

If you have been reading my newsletters lately, you know I have been speaking alot about the tender topic of transitions. 

Yesterday, I had brunch with a group of women who also moved to Setúbal, Portugal. It was super sweet to connect and share what we want “more of” in 2026. Yet again, I am reminded of the power of women gathering … in a circle where we’re truly seen, heard, and loved by one another.
