Happy 2026! Welcome to Season 3 of Glitter, Grit, and Growth! In the first episode of the new season, we make a bold statement: it’s time to stop making New Year’s resolutions, and to start doing three, impactful things instead. Spoiler alert: those three things are 1) pause, 2) create a vision board, and 3) identify your word of the year.
This podcast is for you if you believe that:
● Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must.
● Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit!
● It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!”
● There’s more than enough for everyone.
● Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process.
● People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.
