  • Holiday Lessons from Plants and Perimenopause
    Dec 23 2025

    Send us a text

    I want to share some unexpected lessons that have sprouted from my garden—and from my perimenopause journey. From plants that refuse to grow to learning when to let go, I’ve realized the importance of focusing on what truly thrives in our lives and businesses.

    This episode is about protecting your energy, sorting out what really matters, and making space for the things that bring you joy. If you’re navigating big life changes, I hope these reflections help you step into the new year with more ease, focus, and clarity.
