Description

We thought we’d try something new for us this year and make some time after Christmas to reflect on and share our Soulhub year, but also discuss how we would like to step into 2026.

As you’ll hear, we’ve been really stripping back and feeling into what we love to do, and what brings us the most joy. To be honest its a continuous practice of finding ones alignment and balance of energy in and out. There’s never a line to step over from one year to the next, it’s an eternal continuum. That said, we are very much looking forward to jumping into 2026 with enthusiasm and commitment to our intentions and at the same time allowing space for flow and spontaneity too.

The very ritual of stepping into the podcast studio to honour ourselves and those who’ve supported us in a variety of ways, has been important and timely for us. We all too often are just in pursuit of the “next-thing”, whatever that maybe, and do not take a pause to appreciate what we have achieved and those that have helped us to do it.

We sincerely apologise that not everyone gets a personal reference. But it would take the whole hour just naming everyone who in whatever way blesses our lives.

As always, please do let us know any thoughts you’ve had about being part of Soulhub, or interacting with us along the way, and if you’re up for it, what are you honouring for yourself, and how are you hoping the future looks for you?
