Living with Audacity
Pivoting to audacity in life and business...
2026 is going to be a phenomenal year. That’s what I’ve decided.
2025 was a wild ride for me personally and in my business.
My work rode on the struggle bus post-Helene in western North Carolina, which required something that was always evasive when I was working in corporate.
The requirement? A hard pivot.
Not the Ross on Friends kind of pivot where you are yelling at everyone and they don’t know which way is up or down.
I’m talking about the kind of pivot that makes things messy, moves you forward slowly—abliet intentionally—as you learn to rework the steps of being a business owner.
Coaching was my focus when I launched my business in August 2022.
Now?
I can confidently say that doesn’t completely fit any longer. More, it’s not the only thing anymore.
While I still work 1:1 with business owners, coaching and educating just on ADHD has been left to float. I have clients that have ADHD and come to work on their obstacles while I also am setting sail into uncharted waters… at least for me.
ADHD was my launchpad and I’m so grateful. It’s brought me opportunities and inspiration to share my journey and help others embrace their own. And, it’s time I branch beyond just one version if my professional skills.
This has meant that some products I took months to develop and a YEAR to streamline had to be paused. The decision did sting, and I’m grateful of what I learned over the time I had with the amazing cohorts and the tools developed to make those offerings rich and engaging.
This pivot isn’t a about throwing away what I’ve done, those were foundational things that have lead me here.
What my pivot has looked like:
Dropping group programs as the last cohorts finished
Creating new offers that align with old and new parts of my business to stay solvent
Seeking new partnerships to develop AI tools and systems
Creating new streams of content on here, YouTube, and jumping back into TikTok
Most critical:
I decided to have AUDACITY
Most of my life, I’ve spent playing small.
I asked for permission or waited on others to pave a way, feeling like I couldn’t possibly be the one to try new things… I stopped looking to others and started looking inward to myself… to be a leader for myself.
I’m not in the headspace of playing small anymore and it’s time to embrace it, share, and show the audaciousness that is waiting to be thrown into the world.
While coaching and connection are foundations of my business, you’ll start to see how developing tools, mini-courses, and group development (private org and cohorts) will be launched in the coming weeks.
I finalize my annual goals in February every year since I started my business. I was always overloaded in December and January felt like recovery and lots of client work… so I leaned into it years ago, and I don’t see any signs of stopping now.
This year, it’s different. I felt he shedding of something that held me up for so long no longer was working for me. I felt a shift, a pivot that was possible because of a foundation that was laid.
Thank you for the learning, work, and development… now it’s time to embrace audacity.
