Hello 2026

Since 2025 has been such an intense year I will walk into 2026 resting more. Slowing down, resting more, pushing less. My theme for this year will be slow down and enjoy. I will focus on planning fun before work and giving myself a lot of time to find the joy in every day life. Soft life, like Lola Akinmade wrote in my copy of Bitter Honey.

I already have some things booked for the new year, but my plan is not to overextend myself in any way this year. If my business gets a lot of bookings I will cut down on hours at my employment. During 2025 I worked more than I should have, this year, 2026, I get to say no more, rest more, enjoy more.

My biggest goal it to complete my Master’s thesis, that’s where I will put most of my focus in the coming months.

What are your intentions for 2026?
