Make 2026 Your Best Year Yet: How 5% Executives Design Epic Lives

If you want 2026 to be your best year yet, not just productive, not just successful, but a life you genuinely cannot wait to wake up to, this episode is for you.

Last year was the most fun year of my life, and it wasn’t an accident. It happened because I slowed down long enough to decide what actually mattered and then I built my year around it. In this episode, I walk you through exactly how I did that and how you can too.

I’m sharing why promotions and paychecks are table stakes for executives at the top, and why the leaders who are truly winning design their lives with intention. We plan projects, milestones, and calendars at work, but most people never plan their joy. Hope is not a strategy. Design is.

You’ll hear how Epic 2026 works, why it’s different from goal setting, and how one intentional day can change your entire year. I also share real examples from my own epic adventures, epic memories, and epic goals, from camping with my daughter and NYC girls trips to pottery classes, family milestones, and traditions we now repeat every year.

Epic 2026 is happening January 18th, from 12–6 PM Central. It’s a one-day virtual retreat where we design your year together. We dream big, narrow it down, get everything on the calendar, and actually book the things that matter so they happen.

If you’re ready to stop living your life in the margins and start designing a year you’re proud of, I would love to plan it with you.
