Taking accountability is one of the profound lessons I've learned using the high performance curriculum

Your guide to surviving the holiday season 🌟

A few thoughts for Christmas and the Holiday Season ahead.

And so fast, here we are again, and it's this time of the year, midway from #XMas to #NewYear, where - at least for me - all slows down, allowing us to take a break and reflect, while the energy for a fresh start into 2024 already can be felt (or at least the calories, aquired). 🍪🎂 Looking back, for me, 2023 can be characterized by one word: Unpredictably.🚪‼️ Certainly, this has an element of exhaustion to accommodate various changes in both professional as well as personal life - so, the resting now is very much appreciated 🎄🎅🙏 However, on the other hand, this meant for me, that there were various and numerous positive surprises, I wouldn't have imagined to happen during 2023 such fast or not at all. To highlight one in particular: Meeting and working with new people and/or more closely both within #LYB as well on advisory side. 🤝🎁🔥 Aside from these factual items & changes, what (continues to) amaze(s) me is HOW these changes and challenges have been positively taken on by my #Family and my #Team, likewise. Turning challenges into chances, taking backlashes as learing opportunities, or additional projects as a mean to reflect on priorities and re-think the current state and way of approaching an ever-changing to-do-list 🤩🤩🤩 Therefore, when I can wish for "one" thing for the #NewYear, it is the continuation of this energy, health and positivity to be able to encounter new challenges also in the next year - as the only constant is change itself #PantaRhei ! 💪💪💪 Wish you all a peaceful start into #NewYear2024!

From 0-10 IN A DAY! British weather can be crazy just like our emotions. Humans change with the seasons, just like nature... 🌱🍂❄️ lemme explain! We’re living beings, constantly responding to our surroundings, even when we don’t realize it. Every drop in temperature, darker morning, or changing sky shifts how we feel, think, and act. Rebecca Campbell’s book, Light Is The New Black, completely flipped my perspective on what we call “cosy season.” Rather than just hibernating or slowing down, Campbell frames autumn and winter as the seasons to turn inward. Just like trees shed their leaves, we’re invited to let go of what no longer serves us. Just like animals retreat, we’re given space to recharge and reflect. Instead of fighting it, what if we leaned into this rhythm? What if we saw these months as a time to prepare for GROWTH… laying the foundations for what’s next, even if it doesn’t look flashy right now. So, however you are responding to your surroundings this season, IT’S OK! It feels so much better to lean into the natural ebb and flow, rather than resisting. …so happy cosy season!🧣🍁🍂❄️ #SeasonalLiving #RebeccaCampbell #GrowthMindset

Tune in to get the full weather scoop as we transition into November, and discover why this October could be setting the stage for a dramatic winter!

Why do I feel like we are moving through a twister? There’s less daylight. There’s more tumult in our news feeds. Some days, waking before the sun makes us want to roll over. Maybe we check our phones before we even make a move. We pull ourselves from bed, one foot on the ground, then the next. We stand, breathe, and notice the sky. What do we make of this? Here’s what I think: You have already begun the walk of your best life. Each day is a choice to discover what can bring some levity to your day. On those days when it feels tough to find it, look toward December 21. At 4:19 a.m. the winter solstice will arrive. It signifies the start of winter. Winter. During the holiday season, there are colder days, and maybe snow. And it is when it will be a little lighter every day. For some indigenous nations winter, when the earth sleeps, is the time to create a seed bundle. Here you gather your hopes for the year ahead. Your (fall) harvest is complete. You have a sense of what has worked and what has not, what to keep, what to change. Now, winter, when there’s incrementally more light each day you gather your seeds to cultivate a version of the world you wish to create. Because you can. Because the hope, the seeds, the light, is you.
