Preparing for 2026 starts with understanding how different calendars view time, energy, and action. In this episode, I explore what the Chinese calendar and the Mayan calendar reveal about 2026, where these two systems align, and where they offer very different guidance.

I break down what each calendar teaches about cycles, mo...
