Happy Holidays! 2025 may have been the year of the most firsts for me…

.

First time standup comedy (which, as a shy, sometimes socially awkward introvert, I NEVER thought I would ever do and it actually went well!)

.

First time having a 9-day long first date between nomads

.

First time featured in an art gallery!!

.

First time doing a multi day hike (a tough one through the snowy Himalayas!)

.

First time co-hosting a women’s retreat!! (ancestral healing through storytelling)

.

First time attending a nomads coliving

.

First time being asked to come back to be the community social chair because I unintentionally was so helpful organizing plans and answering questions!

.

First time flying in acroyoga!

.

First time speaking on such huge stages internationally!

.

First time teaching sex ed & mental health to a school in Nepal (to combat teen pregnancy! And for Thailand last year)

.

First time learning Reiki energy healing & actually spookily everyone I’ve treated so far has gotten better!?

.

First time doing voicework where I was told to be meaner!! And that helped bring out my confidence, in an odd way

.

First time meeting a community who valued art over STEM & “more practical” fields

.

First time being greeted by marching band fanfare and feeling like a celebrity

.

First time meeting celebrities and thinking… we’re not that different, we’re all just people

.

First time cave spelunking to the extent I got really scared I’d get stuck wedged sideways in there!

.

First time selling out 100 spots at a workshop & needing to make an overflow list!

.

First time being and REALLY feeling LOVED without any conditions!!?

.

And many more I can’t possibly list them all… (I share more to my Substack blog private subscribers @DrTooni if you’re interested)

.

What a year. It doesn’t hit until it’s all listed out. Though not all these things “worked out,” I am so glad I tried them.

.

The many years of inner work are finally paying off, in an invulnerability to the external outcome, a peace that it is enough to go all in & do my best.

.

Instead of beating myself up or over analyzing any particular outcome, I have the energy to move onto the next risk, sooner.

.

And I know even more deeply I am meant to help others also create memories they are proud of.

.

To say we have truly, fully LIVED, not only quietly tiptoed to death.

.

Due to a few requests, I’ve added another program for 2026 – “Deliver Your Destiny,” a group portal where we birth your dreams – strengthen your creativity & courage to keep trying new things, take new risks, share your heart, and fulfill your destiny!

.

I had never thought I’d ever do any kind of business mentoring, but I realize that monetizing our gifts IS a way to liberation, and at least allows us to escape harmful situations and abusers!!

.

(At our women’s retreat in Taiwan, we did a sledgehammer ritual and it may have involved shouting “F the Patriarchy!!” XD

.

Because it’s true – HOW many people, especially women, are stuck with abusive partners or families because of financial reasons?!?)

.

It’s time to empower all, to have everyone figure out how to truly shine, because everyone has unique skills and talents to contribute to our world, even if you don’t believe in a destined calling.

.

So join us if you’re an entrepreneur or creative looking for more community, confidence, and concrete progress in your most meaningful dreams.

.

I didn’t make real progress until I joined a team (Freedom Talks Global and H-Art Space H-Artists). I don’t want anybody out there to be solo hustling if that’s not your style or hasn’t been working for you.

.

Or to keep procrastinating or stumbling around in confusion when you know you have something important to contribute to this world.

.

It’s not meant to be so hard. We’re meant to do things together. And there are ways to keep this support lifelong. We don’t leave anyone behind.

.

If you have any questions, you’re welcome to message me or book a call to see if it’s a good fit.

.

May 2026 be your most expansive and miraculous year yet of your life!!
