Happy Holiday Season for those celebrating with family in the US this weekend! Taking a moment to also honor our Indigenous North American community as we recognize the true history of this time of year. 💛 On Saturday 11/29 at 11am CST (Chicago)/6am CEST (Barcelona), we will be having our official launch party for the opening of the R.I.S.E.

Happy Monday, Changemakers! I am delighted to announce that the re-aligning of our community to support the (re)launch of the R.I.S.E. Changemaker's Academy is now underway: Welcome to the makings of the R.I.S.E. and Shine Collective, a collaborative global community for people doing work that makes a difference. This will continue to be a FREE community with periodic opportunities to participate in discounted events and prep workshops for those with aspirations to invest in the R.I.S.E. Changemaker's Academy. ➡️ SPEAKING OF WHICH!! If you have not yet seen our new landing page, take a spin at holamagnolia.com/rise—and if you're ready to launch or grow your impact business in 2026, click here to apply and book a call! 🌟 We began as The Accomplice Accelerator, a meeting place to continue the conversations from our monthly webinars featuring professional changemakers of all walks, industries and demographics. From there, we evolved into The Changemaker's Haven, a softer more intimate space gathering rising change leaders learning to pour first into their own cups before putting on their capes to show up for others. And now, just over one month until doors open at the academy, one year since the formation of this community, I am so excited for this new iteration of our space. Starting in the new year, we will be adding an ongoing monthly offering called the R.I.S.E. Forum: a weekly space for changemakers of all levels to come together in fellowship to share collective learnings, wins, and support for the work each of us is striving to do in this world. In addition, there will be periodic special sessions with guest mentors from our growing network as well, so it's going to be a special place to be part of. Stay tuned for more info with R.I.S.E. launch events being announced throughout this week. In the meantime... Have you booked a R.I.S.E. Academy discovery call yet? Help me pass the word!! Just 22 spots in our first class remain!

Hey, Changemakers! As so many of you know, I've been hard at work recovering from a very difficult 18 months in business, made even more challenging following the re-election of President Voldemort. I am back in the saddle AND back in learning mode—which means I am being mentored in all the ways, official and unofficial, to help Hola Magnolia and our new R.I.S.E. Changemaker's Academy hit the ground running at the tippy-top of calendar year 2026. My first assignment from my current mentor cohort was to write this post, which I've done first on LinkedIn. I'll pin posts on other platforms below as I get to them. While you're here, also bookmark our rescheduled reconnection call happening on Monday 11/8 at 1pm Central US/8pm Central Europe. Really appreciate you all! Thank you so much! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Hey, Changemakers! Here’s a timely temperature-check to officially—albeit slightly late—kick off to my favorite month. This short, sweet and abruptly-ended video message courtesy of my toddler. Keep an eye on the calendar as we’ll be adding some informal meet-ups and a couple of co-working sessions for the month of October. The first R.I.S.E. Changemaker’s Academy cohort begins on November 3, so be sure to fill out the interest form at holamagnolia.com/rise if you’re ready to join us in making your next project as profitable as it is impactful. Looking forward to catching up with everyone. 💛
