I feel wise. I feel human. I feel grounded. My dad and I share this love for nature and building things. At 82, he’s selling electric bike lock keys on Etsy and eBay, hearing those little “ka ching” notifications on his phone all day. He packages, keeps track of everything, ships orders, and genuinely enjoys it. And it brings in an extra $ 500 to $1,000 a month. It makes me smile just thinking about it. We spent time in two beautiful places, a state park and a quiet little lake. We walked slowly. The days were simple and full. And something clicked for me. The life I’ve been building actually worked. I was able to show up for my business while being there. Yes, I sat in his partner’s family room to get enough wifi for my Claude Amazon PPC call. And yes, I worked from my hotel room across the hall from my dad the next couple of days. And it was fine. More than fine. It felt right. I helped my dad with some tech things, and he said something that really stayed with me. He wants to start a monthly video call where he shows us parts of his home as he cleans it up. That’s huge. I made a Streeter family Zoom link and sent it to him and my sister. It felt like a small step, but also a really meaningful one. Now I’m back home. And I can feel that dip after a really good trip. But instead of rushing to force myself back into intensity, I keep coming back to this: Slowing down worked. Being present worked. Building a life where I can work and still live fully on my terms. So maybe the goal isn’t to “snap back.” Maybe it’s to carry that pace forward, even just a little. I feel grateful. I feel grounded. I feel connected. And I want to build from here.

Hey everyone! I have some exciting news to share that perfectly captures what this community is all about: evolving your income without sacrificing your well-being. ​I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve been chosen as the Somatic Movement Facilitator for the Global Meetings Industry Day (GMID 2026) in Halifax! I’ll be leading three wellness sessions throughout the day to help attendees hit the "reset button" on their nervous systems. ​The wildest part? This wasn’t even on my radar. 🤯 ​If you had asked me a year ago if I’d be facilitating somatic movement at a major industry event, I wouldn’t have seen it coming. But this is the power of staying open to how your skills can evolve: ​Income Diversification: This is a completely different stream of income that grew naturally out of my own wellness practices. ​Anti-Burnout in Action: I’m literally being paid to help others prevent the exact burnout we talk about here. ​Alignment: It doesn’t feel like "hard selling"—it feels like providing a solution that the professional world is starving for right now. ​It’s a huge reminder that when you’re open to different streams of income and lean into what keeps you grounded, the right opportunities find you. ​The takeaway for the group: Don't put yourself in a box! Sometimes the "side" thing or the wellness practice you do for yourself can turn into a professional pillar you never expected. ​Can’t wait to share more about how it goes on May 6th! ​I'd love to know—has anyone else had a "surprise" income stream pop up recently that they didn't originally plan for? 👇

After a wonderful few days with my dad!! We spend time together having meals, waking in nature, and driving through small foothills towns. I forgot how beautiful CA is! The trip was so positive, I am so glad that I passed through the emotional slump and booked this trip! I’ve also been taking the Claude and Amazon PPC course each morning and can’t wait to put it all into action for myself and VIP clients soon! But I’ve got to catch up first! I’m missing today’s class! Tomorrow is the last day. How’s your week going so far?
