Summary

#327: If you want 2026 to feel different — clearer, more aligned, less like you’re holding your breath — you’re going to have to break a few rules. Especially the quiet ones you’ve been following without realizing it.

In this solo episode, we’re kicking off the year by tossing out the performative resolutions and getting honest about the unspoken rulebook that’s been running your life. You’re not behind. You’re not stuck. But you might still be living by stories, standards, and timelines that were never yours to begin with.

This is about rewriting those scripts — and choosing yourself more boldly than you ever have before.

In This Episode:

  • The invisible rules keeping you small — and how to spot them
  • Why being “the good girl” is blocking your growth
  • The problem with playing it safe (and how to build risk tolerance)
  • What to do with the “I should be further by now” spiral
  • The exact rules I broke in 2025 — and how they changed everything
  • The difference between operating from your past vs. your future self
  • A 3-step strategy to build a year that feels lucky
  • How to take bold action without burning yourself out
  • Why rebellion can be soft, focused, and wildly effective
  • The rules I’m leaving behind this year — and what I’m replacing them with


You’re not here to play by invisible rules anymore. You’re here to design something intentional — and this is where that begins.

Welcome to the first episode of She's So Lucky of 2026.

0:15.6

Now, 2025 was a lot, and it asked a lot of us.

0:19.9

Many of us are ready for a new year and fresh energy.

0:23.5

But I don't want to repeat the same New Year, New You, things that we've heard a million

0:28.2

times that we're all sick of. Like no shade to the woman on the stair step, stepping into the

0:33.5

new year of abundance. But we have seen her for the past decade and we're ready for real

0:38.1

strategies to help us actually have a fantastic year. But before we get into it, I need you to text

0:43.9

this episode to a friend so that we can all have a lucky 2026 together.

1:07.7

As I've been thinking about how I want to approach this new year, I realized that for a long time, I had been adhering to old rules and beliefs that were keeping me really boxed in. And for a lot of 2025, I had to confront these rules and beliefs and unpack them

1:14.9

and understand where they were coming from and to let myself break and rewrite these rules.

1:21.4

So I want to share a little bit about what that's looked like for me, and I want to help you

1:25.1

do the same. So one of the biggest rules that I realized I was adhering to in 2025 was this idea of

1:32.8

moving in silence to a fault.

1:35.6

Now, I am a person who does value a level of privacy.

1:38.8

I don't necessarily think that everything that we do or think or say or aspire to have needs to be broadcast

1:45.7

on Front Street by any means. But I do think that when we are so secretive about what we

1:51.8

aspire to do or what we aspire to have, it can actually block us from getting it. Because what that

1:57.6

often does is it keeps us really small. It keeps us in this space of feeling

2:03.3

like we need to be overly realistic, which if you've listened to the show over the past few months,

2:07.6

you already know how we feel about being realistic over here. We're not doing that. And it

2:12.8

almost has this bit of shame around wanting more and around wanting to expand that I really think
