202. What We're Bringing Into 2026 | Liz's Book, Lee's Travel Biz & Fire-Breathing Horses

2026 is here, and we are galloping into it with clarity, humor, and a few dragons. We are kicking off the year by sharing what we're letting go of from 2025 (comparison, pressure, scarcity) and what we're calling for in 2026 (creativity, presence, joy, money, and more).

 

Expect Celine Dion skating routines, Stranger Things finale tears, birthday reflections, and a reminder that the blessing of age is knowing what lights you up, and where to give that light back. From travel plans and business expansions to confidence, calendars, and career shifts, this is a joyfully honest look at growth, aging, and the power of knowing yourself.

Some key takeaways from this episode:

• Aging brings clarity, not limitation. Liz shares why her 72nd birthday feels powerful, not limiting. With age comes the deep freedom of knowing who you are, what turns you on, and how to give that power back to the world. Aging is not about sitting down. It's about standing even more firmly in your moment.

• Resolutions don't work when they're rooted in comparison. Lee reminds us that you don't need five books on your nightstand or 18 goals in motion to feel worthy. Stop measuring your life against someone else's checklist. Define success by what lights you up… and then go do more of that.

• You can reinvent at any age (and you should). Whether it's public speaking, writing a book, launching a travel business, or planning your year with a giant-ass wall calendar, 2026 is about trusting your next step even if it looks different from the last one. The dragon is back. Let's ride.
