New Year Visioning: When Neuroscience Meets Intuition

New Year Visioning: When Neuroscience Meets Intuition

Written by Simone Usselman-Tod I completed my 2026 vision board just before the New Year. Not because I was rushing or trying to get ahead, but because it felt aligned. I wanted to enter this new cycle already connected to how I want the year to feel, not just what I...

Closing 2025 and Welcoming 2026

As we move into December, there is a powerful energetic shift we can all feel. 2025 was a Snake year and the final 9-year in the numerology cycle has been a year of shedding, simplifying, and releasing what no longer fits. It has asked us to slow down, turn inward, and let go of old identities and emotional responsibilities that have weighed on us for too long.

For many of us, this year felt like a deep internal reset. Old patterns surfaced to be healed. Boundaries strengthened. Clarity emerged in unexpected ways.

Building Resilience and Confidence – From The Inside Out

Building Resilience and Confidence – From The Inside Out

Let’s be real—life doesn’t usually ask if we’re ready. It just shows up, sometimes with a gentle nudge and other times like a freight train. And when that happens, how do we keep our footing and not lose ourselves in the chaos?

That’s where emotional resilience comes in. Not as a personality trait some people are born with, but as a strength we can build. A kind of inner steadiness that helps us ride the waves of life with more grace and less overwhelm.
