The last few years have been both incredible and brutal. Professional growth, moving up in the industry - while also dealing with family health crises and loss. Life doesn't pause for you to catch up.
I could have walked away from music a long time ago. It would have been easier.
But easier doesn't mean fulfilling.
Jim Rohn said it best: "Don't wish for life to be easier. Wish you were better."
My hardest moments were times I could have given up. But I didn't - not because I'm special, but because I chose the path that felt fulfilling over the path that felt safe.
That's what keeps me here, no matter what life throws my way.
So to everyone in this community - current members and those joining as we grow - every day you have a choice about who you show up as.
2026 won't be easier than 2025. Life doesn't work that way. But you'll be better at handling it. And as Tony Robbins said, "Problems don't go away. We just get better problems."
So here's the challenge to kick off the year:
What's ONE pattern from 2025 you're not bringing into 2026?
Not a vague goal. A specific pattern you're choosing to leave behind.
Drop it in the comments. Let's start the year with accountability, not just hope.
Here's to better problems and more fulfilling lives. 🥂
