The fire and I became one...
I spent my New Year’s Eve as a Fire Keeper for a Native American purification sweat lodge. I didn’t enter the "womb space" of the lodge this time, instead, I sat with the fire. I tended to the stones.
I am always amazed at how quickly I forget my absolute connection to fire. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. I looked at the fire the way you look at a lover, or the most beautiful sunset you’ve ever seen. In a moment of pure alchemy, the separation disappeared: I was the fire, and the fire was me.
I wondered: What would change if I looked at myself with that same adoration?
My intention for the night was for it to be effortless. In the past, I’ve struggled; doubting the heat, fighting the rocks, doubting my strength. This time, I chose to dance. I chose for it to surprise and delight me. I chose effortlessness I turned the labor into a devotion for everyone inside the lodge.
My word for 2026 is AUDACITY. The audacity to claim the very best that life and love have to offer.
My stand for you this year:
As a coach, I hold the vision of for every person that finds me this year, having the audacity to claim the life you want, regardless of your circumstances, regardless of whether you feel "deserving," and regardless of who disagrees with you if it is appropriate or not.
I will hold that vision with you until it becomes your reality.
Who is ready to be audacious with me?
