Day 2 of 2026… how’s it going so far?


Reading Time: 33 seconds

🎉 Happy January 2nd, Reader,

How was the first day of the year? As I am Southern by marriage, we had some cabbage and black-eyed pees along with some prime rib, courtesy of my husband, corn bread and salad. Yum! So, my first day resulted in a food baby I will be walking off today!

I talked recently about my upcoming 100-day STMA sprint (a.k.a. "short-term massive action" to equal "long-term maximum results). But I might have mentioned it a bit too soon. (You, like me, might have been fully in vacation and break mode. I get it!)

Hopefully this finds you feeling optimistic with a solid knowing this is the year you will grow your empire.

It took me years to realize "a new year" didn't change my results. My actions were the catalyst.

Which is why I start every year with 100 days of focused, intentional, massive action—and this isn't new. I’ve done it every year for the past 35 years. (Yup, I'm old enough to have been doing something like this for three and a half decades. The silver is real.)

Anyway, this year, my Day 1 is Monday, January 5th, and instead of going at it with just a couple of like-minded folks, I'd love you to join me!

Here's what happens when you commit to the STMA 100-Day Audio Coaching Program:

  • You stop guessing what matters
  • You stop overloading your plate
  • You start taking the right actions consistently
  • You build momentum fast (without burning out)

Ten to twenty minutes a day.
Clear priorities.
A proven structure that works in real life.

That’s exactly what Vision to Reality (the companion book) teaches. And the STMA 100-Day Audio Program walks you through it, day by day and week by week.

Get them here:

You don’t need a dramatic overhaul. You don’t need a perfect plan.

You do need a strong Day 1—and a battle-tested framework that carries you forward.

Monday is coming.

And I’d love for you to start with me.

See you tomorrow!

Reading Time: 30 seconds Happy last Monday of the year! There are a few days every year that I sleep in a little. This week comprises most of them. And this morning I woke up late, but I was thinking about you, Reader! Because I'm seeing a whole bunch of "new year, new you" posts and I don't think they are the most effective drum beat. I know you're seeing them too--"it's time to set your goals, intentions, new year's resolutions." While they aren't wrong, there's something more effective you...

Reading Time: 11 seconds January 1st is almost here and January 5th is the first official business day of the year. It's also the day I'll be starting my first 100-days of the year (for my 35th year in a row!!). You have the choice to make the same resolutions and set the same goals--all of which may have historically been abandoned or missed for one reason or another. Or. You can commit with me.You can commit to 100 days of focused, intentional, massive action, the kind that produces results...

Reading Time: 37 quick seconds There’s a strange quiet that settles in after Christmas. The presents are opened.The meals are planned.And suddenly… there’s space to think. This is the moment most people say they’ll use to get clear about the year ahead. And then January arrives and life takes over. Here’s what I know after working with thousands of goal-driven people: Most goals aren’t lost in February. They’re lost right now, in this in-between week. Because momentum doesn’t magically appear...
