For 2025 to be different, we have to act differently.

You probably want 2025 to be different in some way.

✨ Less self-doubt. More ease.

✨ Less analysis paralysis. More momentum.

✨ Less isolation. More community.

And you probably have all the biggest ambitions, and best intentions, and rough (or highly detailed but hard-to-bring-yourself-to-implement) plans.

Maybe you’re buying a giant wall calendar and that shiny new planner, hiring a VA, signing up for new software.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but no amount of new tools will replace outside perspective and empathetic accountability.

Because even the most optimized, 5-star, influencer-approved planner doesn’t stop the overthinking spiral.

You know what does?

✔︎ Getting curious.

✔︎ Taking time to reflect on what you (and your perfect-fit people) really want and need.

✔︎ Surrounding yourself with fellow multi-passionate overthinkers so you can feed off each others’ bright ideas and big energy (rather than letting it all fester on your own).

That’s what Peer Pods is for.

Feedback and insights from this super intimate group of 4 like-minded (but otherwise wildly diverse) business owners is better than the best planner.

Because it works with what you already have—you, your big ideas, and your deep passion to make things happen.

For 2025 to be different, we have to act differently.

We have to step outside of what’s worked in the past. Or even better—step outside of what we’ve always done, but know hasn’t been working for quite a while.

We have to be different, to do differently, to have a different outcome.

So, if you’ve invested in all the tools, coaching, courses, YouTube rabbit holes, and then some…and you’re STILL not seeing the change you’ve imagined possible: try Peer Pods.

It’s a completely different way to show up differently in your business.

It’s simultaneously:

✨ Open-ended and structured.

✨ Marketing-focused and life-adjacent.

✨ Permission-giving and empathetically holding you accountable.

(LOVE those “this made me think of you” moments.” More on that in a future newsletter.)

And it’s so true.

But also, it’s so much easier said than done. Especially when you try to wrangle all your big ideas all by yourself.

Having a group of people you can rely on to voice your off-the-wall ideas with matters. (Like in Peer Pods.)

✔︎ They can validate you.

✔︎ They can guide you to reflect more deeply.

✔︎ And they can connect you with resources you never knew you needed.

It’s not a problem to be a deep thinker.

It’s not a problem to need some external motivation to get out of your own head.

It’s just a problem if you let yourself stay stuck rather than taking the values-aligned action you KNOW will feel so much better. And the action that you know is necessary to make the impact you imagine.

Trust yourself. Trust your capacity to give and receive valuable insight. Trust in the process.

Join Peer Pods and make 2025 different, starting this quarter.

The Monday group starts on Jan 6. The Friday group starts in mid-February.

You deserve this. ✨
