How One Word Can Change Your Whole Year

By now, you’ve rung in the new year and you’re probably knee-deep in cleaning after the holiday break. Your calendar is likely swamped with all of the meetings and projects you joyfully delayed until “after the holidays” except now is that time and the tasks at hand just feel daunting.

This year, what if you could ground yourself with a word that will guide you and help you become another version of yourself, a version that might not have to hustle and grind quite so hard? 

What would your word for 2025 be?

I’ve been doing this for several years now. It has helped me in the years when I felt like my life wasn’t my own,  the years when I was lost, and the years when I was rebuilding everything, surviving on pure faith.

For me, last year’s word was BLOOM. 

I kept imagining this garden I was planting and tending to: my business. Much of it was new to me, unknown and unfamiliar. I had so many moments of uncertainty and my old measurements of self-worth — my title and paycheck — were no longer ways to gauge my success. Still, day after day I would get up and plant seeds. I knew consistency was everything.

The more I put myself out there, the more conversations I engaged in, the more people who experienced the power of coaching with me, the more I would grow. 🌱 So, I kept at it with the intention that fruit would start to appear and I would reap some rewards for the work that seemed so unseen and unrecognizable. 

Boy, did that pay off!

In 2024, the momentum picked up.

Everywhere I turned, flowers started to BLOOM in my little garden of JOY.

Here is a little recap:

🌸I coached 13 brilliant, inspiring women in 1:1 coaching for 6 months or more

🌸I hosted 3 Executive Women’s Networking Events

🌸I was a guest speaker on 12 podcasts

🌸I was a keynote speaker for International Women’s Day for Stop & Shop HQ

🌸I joined the board of NextUp New York

🌸I hosted my very first retreat at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, Mass! 

🌸Each of the 7 attendees received 3 hours of 1:1 coaching with me and the
Breakthroughs were off the charts!

What is my word for this year?

With the power of intention, mindset work, and consistent action, your WORD can get you moving in a direction that will benefit your whole life.
