🎬 Midweek Reset Highlights

This past Wednesday it was a joy to support a creative prepping for their first fashion show. They were feeling very overwhelmed with the planning. I asked them to share their morning and evening routines. These routines can support their Energy and Velocity (consistency) levers by creating a space for themselves to be with themselves, setting the tone for the day, and grounding before sleep.

I encouraged them to make three of the activities non-negotiables so they could have a consistent foundation as their fashion show ebbed and flowed. They loved the sound of this and said, “I can feel the anxiety melting away.”


⭐️ Full recap: watch the recording of the Midweek Reset, includes a breath exercise and lesson about the 6 levers that promote more flow in your work and life on Patreon. The recap posts are public, so feel free to share it with a friend if it's helpful.

If there's one durable skill I've noticed as non-negotiable, it's resilience. I refuse to call non-technical skills "soft" anymore. These are the skills that help us endure, and there is nothing soft about them. They take years to cultivate and hone. Being reminded of joy's role in resilience made me grateful for how I've spent my month, dancing the line between effort...
