B23 Strategies COACHING + COHORTS + COMMUNITY FOR WOMEN BECOMING WHO THEY WERE CREATED TO BE BY LIVING OUT THE 2:3 CODE : LIFTING, NOT LIMITING.

01/06/2026

Reflecting on your past year and planning for the coming year does not have to be hard!

Breaking down a process that I personally use and share with our coaching and cohort clients into easy approachable steps.

STEP ONE: Do a calendar audit. Go through your calendar month by month looking at the major pillars of life and write down everything that you notice.

Now ask yourself 2 questions while reflecting on that list:

1. What am I proud of?
2. What needed more focus or intention?

Follow along as we build on this to reverse engineer what our daily habits need to show up as the best version of you in 2026!

WEEK 4 ADVENT: LOVE

This final week of Advent centers on love.

Today’s reflection came from New Morning Mercies by Paul Tripp, a devotional I’ve had for years.

Yet somehow, every time I return to it, there’s something new waiting for me.

Today it was this reminder that the Christmas story is ultimately about light defeating darkness.

It struck me again that to love is to be light in the world. Not by denying what’s hard or heavy, but by choosing presence, kindness, and truth right where darkness tries to settle.

May this final week of advent carry with a reminder to offer light wherever we are. In our words. In our attention. In the way we love the people placed in front of us. In the way we carry the reminders of advent into the new year.

May you all experience the hope, peace, joy and love this season offers throughout the year. Merry Christmas!

WEEK 3 ADVENT: JOY

I’m noticing that year joy has been teaching me something softer.

Watching my grandson experience the world for the first time has slowed me down in the best way. The wonder. The pure magic of the season. The way joy lives in the tiniest moments.

It’s reminded me that joy isn’t only found in the big traditions or perfectly planned moments, as meaningful as those are. Often it’s right here in the present moment, waiting to be noticed.

As you move through these final days of the season, I encourage you to pause and notice where joy is showing up for you. Consider the splendor of seeing things new and discovering what’s there to be fully experienced as a child like joy.

If December already feels like a lot, you’re not alone.

This season holds a strange mix for so many of us. We’re tired and pulled in a hundred directions, but still hoping for moments that feel meaningful and grounded.

It’s one of the reasons why I come back to an Advent practice.

When everything else speeds up, Advent gives us permission to slow down a little and remember what we’re actually celebrating.

It helps me pay attention again. Not in a big, dramatic way, but in the small places where hope shows up without asking for attention.

If you’re feeling both the magic and the mess right now, you’re in good company.

I’m doing this Advent practice each week, and I’ll share a simple reflection if you want to walk through it with me as a quiet way to notice the true meaning for the season in the middle of everything else.

Want a hack to help with someone who you dread conversation with this holiday because it always seems to end up feeling divisive and argumentative?

LOOK FOR EVEN THE SMALLEST THING THAT YOU ALIGN ON!

Not the big stuff.
Not the values or the disagreements.

Just something tiny and human.

Maybe you both love the same holiday movie.
Maybe you’re rooting for the same team.
Maybe you picked out the same gift for someone.
Maybe you both hate wrapping presents.
Maybe you both tried a new hobby this year.

That one little overlap doesn’t solve the big gap… but it softens the energy.
It gives you a safe place to land.

One moment of, “Oh… same.”

You don’t have to rebuild the whole relationship.

You just need a doorway back into connection.

And sometimes the smallest doorway is the easiest one to walk through.

For all the mamas out there that are about to welcome home their adult kids in the next week:

Our adult kids aren’t just coming home for the holidays—they’re coming home to our energy, our hopes, and sometimes our unspoken expectations.

I say this as a mom with a child in every season of adulthood.
One who’s married with a new baby.
One in his mid-twenties building a life in a new city.
And one finishing her senior year of college, standing on the edge of everything new.

Each of them comes home carrying something different.

And even with the best intentions, it’s easy for my questions, my hopes, or my idea of how things “should” look to add weight they never asked to carry.

What I have learned over all of these seasons is that our adult kids are carrying a lot and have many of their own expectations for this time home. For some, it may be their first time home after leaving for college and have a whole schedule planned to connect with friends, all while you have a gingerbread competition, a family cookie party and an ugly Christmas sweater party planned that you’re SURE they can’t wait to be a part of!

Yet even when we have the best of intentions, our energy, expectations and endless questions can find them in a place that only adds more to them instead of welcoming them into a place of peace and safety that they are seeking.

So I invite all of you mamas into a moment of quiet reflection before the craziness begins as they walk in the door. Put some intention to exactly what you want them to receive while home, not necessarily what we are all hoping to get from them.

For me, when I am able to let go of the quiet scripts in my head, I make room for who they each are and the lives they’re building to meet them each exactly where they are.
And that’s where the connection happens—the kind they’ll remember long after the holidays end.

You know the moment.

That moment when a conversation starts to turn.

Your chest tightens, your tone sharpens, and your body reacts before you even realize what’s happening.

That’s your brain trying to protect you.
Your nervous system shifts into survival.
And reacting becomes the easiest thing in the world.

But - here’s the thing:
there’s always a small moment—just one breath—where everything can shift.

A breath long enough to move you out of survival and into rest and regulate.
A breath long enough to bring your true self back online.
A breath long enough to choose who you want to be.

That moment has nothing to do with waiting or wanting someone else to change.

It’s the moment where you take your control back.
Not control over the other person.
Control over your presence, your tone, your response, your alignment.

The moment where reacting becomes responding.
Where survival becomes choice.
Where you lift the connection instead of limiting it.

This is the work.

There’s something about slowing down with the people you love that recenters you in ways you don’t fully notice until you’re in it.

This past week was full of simple moments like morning coffee, good food and wine, beach walks, and watching my grandson take in the world with his whole heart.

Those small, ordinary pieces of time have a way of settling you. They remind you of who you are, what matters most, and why staying connected to family, to God, to yourself keeps everything else feel grounded.

I am coming home today with a deeper sense of ease and a little more clarity. Not because of a dramatic revelation, but because presence has a way of restoring perspective.

Today we pause with deep gratitude for those who have served for every man and woman who chose courage over comfort, service over self, and faithfulness over fear.

We also honor the families who have carried that weight beside them lifting, loving, and holding steady in quiet strength.

Veterans remind us what it means to live with purpose to rise for something greater, to protect what matters most, and to lift rather than limit.

May we carry their example into our own lives choosing every day to serve with compassion, lead with integrity, and love with courage.

The language we use — with both ourselves and others — is one of the most powerful tools for transformation we have.

Limiting words come from fear and scarcity. They shrink what’s possible.

Lifting words come from truth and love. They expand what’s possible.

The shift isn’t about pretending everything’s fine — it’s about choosing words that align with what’s true and life-giving.

Be intentional: notice your words.

Before you speak — to yourself, your team, your child, or your spouse — pause and ask:

Are my words lifting or limiting?
