During the holiday season, many people break from their daily routines by staying up late, having drinks, and overeating, and tell themselves they'll get serious again on January 1st. But if you want next year to be the best year of your life, waiting until the new year to begin is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.

In today's episode, I'm sharing why the final weeks of the year are your greatest opportunity to prepare mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually for the future you want to create. The truth is, the decisions you make in December will undoubtedly impact the momentum, mindset, and confidence you carry into the new year.

Finally, I'll show you how to use your Miracle Morning with a specific year-end focus that will help you start the new year with clarity, momentum, and purpose, to make 2026 the best year of your life.
