When we asked Nambitha Ben-Mazwi what she’s saying yes to in 2026, her answer was all about embracing the no’s.

Before she can say yes to anything new, she has to reframe one of the hardest experiences we all face. As she puts it: "Rejection. It's no longer something I fear. I see it as either protection or redirection. Either way, it's guiding me closer to my purpose."

That shift – a quiet, grounded confidence in your path – is the real foundation of a Year of Yes. It’s saying yes to better alignment. Yes to timing that serves you. Yes to the doors that open because others closed. Yes to the version of you that trusts the process instead of forcing it.

In our Jan/Feb 2026 issue, Nambitha gets honest about the lessons that brought her here, the purpose she’s leaning into and why this is the year she’s choosing “yes” with intention.
