Before the year rushes to a close 🏃🏻♀️
|
Dear Reader, Someone said to me this week, "I don't even want to review the year, let's just assume it's DONE and get on with the fresh start." I totally get that. 2025 was a very rough year for many of us. Myself included! It was A LOT. That’s why I think this year especially, it's important to pause to reflect. For me, one of the most jarring aspects of this year has been the pace and onslaught of information that our increasingly digitalized world is demands we keep up with. I wonder, what are the costs to us and our lives if we don’t make a practice of pausing, to make sense, to make meaning, to filter out, and to decide what to take forward? That's why next Wednesday I'm holding a special live workshop for anyone who wants to take a focused hour to review the year before it rushes to a close. In a space that feels warm, creative, collaborative. We need it, to make a fresh start. Your Year in ReviewWednesday, December 17 4 PM CET | 10 AM ET | 7 AM PT Here’s how it will work: You’ll bring your 2025 calendar or planner. You’ll grab a cup of tea, your journal or notebook, favorite pen, and a set of colored pencils/pens. I’ll lead you in a review of the year, including highs and lows, and we’ll do a creative exercise to help you set some intentions for what you want to leave behind and what you want to take forward into the new year. We’ll have breakouts to share our observations and hear from others – a part of my workshops that is always a favorite from participants. (The people in this community are the best – and they are from all over! ✨🌍) At the end, we’ll leave the Zoom meeting open another 30 minutes for all who’d like to stay on for an informal chat to explore related themes that come up in our time, wrapping at 11:30 AM ET. Ready to snag your spot? Register here. Most of us head into the holiday weeks ready to luxuriate in lots of quiet time, and then find it just gets busy! This is a powerful moment to pause before the year rushes to its end. Can’t wait to see you there. Lisa

"The Future of Work" is a phrase that appears everywhere lately. There are massive forces driving the questions of what the future of work will look like, from AI and whether it will substantially change our work or is so much hype, to shifting political landscapes, evolving social values, economic volatility, and the impacts of climate change. Amid so much change, making your own decisions about what's next with work can feel overwhelming and daunting. It can feel like everything is out of...
