2026 for me is big on: “What would you do if you weren’t afraid?”
2026 for me is more soul, less ego…
I took time to think about this question a lot, and for me, these things will always rise:
1. Speak the unfiltered truth more often.�Not recklessly, but courageously. Tell the people I love often & why I love them. Give the hard feedback (and always willing to receive one) without coating it. Say no to things that drain me without guilt. Say yes to things that scare me without the fear of rejection or failure.
2. Create life my own way without fear of judgment.�The fear of being “cringe”/ not being “accepted”/ not “fitting in” is truly paralyzing. Hard on letting go of the fear of being judged. I can’t be everyone’s cup of tea & I surely don’t want to be!
3. Bet bigger on myself.
Invest more my time and effort into the passions that light me up, things that make me feel alive! I am learning to let go. Allowing myself to surrender, to feel deeply without thinking of logic all the time. Like sunset… it always stirs something deep and wordless in me. The most beautiful things we get to experience usually owe nothing to logic, and ask only to be felt.
4. Love more recklessly.�Let people in. Be the one who reaches out first. Risk heartbreak by staying open when every instinct says to armor up. Life is too short! So love people- more recklessly!
5. Fail spectacularly, on purpose.�Try things I’m almost certain I’ll suck at!
Fear of looking foolish keeps from competence. The beautiful irony is that every time I’ve ignored fear and done one of these things anyway, the outcome was almost never as bad as I imagined—and the regret of not doing it would have been far worse!
More soul,
Less ego.
What about you?
