Episode 707: What Are You Shedding Before 2026?

The free workshop: Live Like You Give a Damn (As the World Burns) is happening tomorrow! Tomorrow, December 18th at 3 p.m. Eastern, I’ll walk you through how to keep your heart open, grounded, and intact during hard seasons of life, so you can live like you give a damn. I’ll add the link for you below so you can join us live. And in case you missed it, my new book Live Like You Give a Damn is officially out in the world — and I can’t wait for you to read it.

In this episode, we’re taking a look at what it means to shed before we step into a new year. Since 2025 is the Year of the Snake and 2026 is the Year of the Horse, this moment naturally invites both release and momentum. I’m walking you through the questions, stories, and real-life moments that help you recognize what’s ready to fall away — and how that clearing creates space for aligned action.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How the symbolism of the Snake (shedding) and the Horse (movement) can guide your personal reflection

• What shedding actually looks like in everyday life — with examples you’ll definitely recognize

• Why release is essential before you start planning or taking action for the new year

• The most important questions to ask yourself as you move toward 2026

• How to free up emotional and energetic space without forcing resolutions

• A reminder that growth doesn’t require a full reinvention — just honesty and willingness

As you listen, I hope you let yourself soften, get curious, and notice what’s quietly asking to be released. Sometimes the smallest things we put down make the biggest difference in how we step forward.
