After one of the biggest seasons of growth in my business, launching my first book Create Your Aligned Business, celebrating a #1 New Release in Human Design, and welcoming incredible new women into the Incubator, I found myself reflecting on what comes next.

Because true success isn’t just about what we build right now. It’s about creating a foundation for what’s coming next year… and beyond.

In this solo episode, I’m sharing the three key things I’m doing right now to prepare for 2026  the exact process I use (and teach inside the Aligned Business Blueprint and Incubator Mastermind) to stay aligned, intentional, and grounded as my business continues to grow.

Whether you’re in a season of expansion or recalibration, this conversation will help you pause, reflect, and plan from a place of clarity, so your next chapter feels purposeful, not pressured.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

How to do a current business assessment to identify your strengths, assets, and opportunities for growth

Why getting honest about where you are right now creates momentum for where you want to go

The simple but powerful practice of future visioning, dreaming big, then zooming in on what’s truly achievable in the next year

How to use strategic planning to map your time, energy, and resources in alignment with your Human Design

Why clarity creates calm, and how planning ahead turns expansion into ease

If you’ve been craving structure, clarity, or direction for the next season of your business, this episode will guide you through exactly how to create it.
