Happy New Year, friends!

After a cozy, restful holiday season, I'm exploding into 2025 like a firecracker. Boom! 

January is a big month. Here's what's coming up...

Vision Board Party

Los Angeles, California

January 18, 2025

I'm co-hosting a dreaming, planning, and vision-boarding party with Susan Hyatt to kick off the New Year. Our theme is "More Fun, More Money." 

• Delicious food, cocktails, and mocktails. 
• Brainstorm money-making ideas. 
• Meet wonderful people and enjoy stimulating conversations. 
• We provide vision board supplies and a beautiful atmosphere. 
• Create a visual depiction of your most joyful, prosperous year!

Get your ticket here. Attend by yourself or come along with a friend! 

After a bustling January, I'll be hunkering down in Hawaii for several months and getting back into my normal, steady, and quiet routine. (Well, as "quiet" as life can be with a fiery little Aries toddler in the house! Haha!)

Wishing you an excellent start to 2025.

Let's do good work, be good humans, and make space for a little silliness and joy along the way.
