How apropos, I got my nails done last wknd in this exact color of the pic and said- "It reminds me of the galaxy" and thought, this feels like the stars are at my fingertips and toes. :). My word for this year is Discipline with a bonus support word of Determination. Your post resonates perfectly with my mindset this year. I just turned 40 and I can't believe this is middle-aged. I feel like I'm still growing up, just getting started. Like I've finally arrived.
Looking forward to change as I've truly realized is our only constant. "To infinity and beyond" indeed.
Thank you for this invitation to expansion. This is exactly what I needed to hear.
I am making 'build' my word for this year because that is exactly what I need and want to focus on. I've seen what you've achieved and it's inspired me to lean in and do the same.
I may be a few decades older but I'm not letting that stop me. I've got a lot of catching up to do. You've inspired me to make my first post on Substack and it's had almost 400 views. 2025, here I come!
This was such a beautiful affirmation for me as my word for 2025 is connection ✨ And your portfolio perspective has helped me release so much shame around switching careers as often as I have in my 31 years of life 😅
I love this! I’ve been brainstorming my goals for 2025 and had also just landed on “expand [my project / nascent business] beyond myself” - cheers to expanding!
Beautifully articulated and jam-packed with important messages that is impeccably timed. Thank you for the encouragement Anna, and cheers to expansion!
Fun fact, the message of this whole post also aligns with the astrology of 2025. Lots of change, on a macro and micro scale, but also people aligning more to their authentic selves 💖
I have learnt to enjoy the process of choosing a word each year. Its extremely powerful. This year, for me my word is healing... But it doesnt need to be passive. I intend to travel and discover and learn as well as rest and recuperate. Excited to follow your journey for the coming year. Really enjoyed your pioneering of the portfolio career. 🙌🏻
It means taking action in alignment with my intuition, led by my values, suiting my nervous system. I'm building an online private practice and it's full of potential pressure to do it this way or that way. But when I'm out of alignment I'm at risk of overwhelm / burnout. So no to that!
Great word! Expand. Using that. Stealing? Borrowing.
Steal/borrow as you please!

I'm 35 and I feel the same way - like I've finally arrived at the place that I was always meant to be. To infinity and beyond!

Thank you for sharing your piece!
I totally resonated with “unclench” — that is the biggest lesson I’ve been learning over the past four years!
Same! I feel like it’s a lesson I continue to learn again and again and again

Travelling is one of the most healing things we can do. I hope you have lots of adventures in 2025! ❤️
Wow. This was so moving and exactly what I needed to read going into 2025. My word is Renewal ✨ to new beginnings and all the possibilities.
Oof I love this for you ❤️
Love your word expand! So many possibilities!! My word is ✨ Align ✨
A brilliant word! What does that mean for you?
It means taking action in alignment with my intuition, led by my values, suiting my nervous system. I'm building an online private practice and it's full of potential pressure to do it this way or that way. But when I'm out of alignment I'm at risk of overwhelm / burnout. So no to that!
Yes to alignment! I write about it here:
