This Christmas Eve, Give Yourself the Gift of Clarity

This Christmas Eve, Give Yourself the Gift of Clarity

December 24, 20243 min read

It’s Christmas Eve. Hopefully, you’re surrounded by loved ones, enjoying a little downtime, and maybe indulging in too many cookies. But if you’re anything like me, you’re also thinking about the year ahead.

There’s something about this time of year that sparks reflection. Maybe it’s the holiday magic, or maybe it’s the realization that another year has flown by. Whatever it is, it’s the perfect moment to pause and ask yourself: What do I really want in 2025?

Missed the Webinar? No Problem.

Last week, I hosted my Last Chance to Jumpstart Your Career Before 2025 webinar, and let me tell you, the conversations were incredible. Leaders like you took the first steps toward creating bold visions for their careers and breaking them down into actionable steps.

But here’s the thing: if you missed it, it’s not too late to start your journey. The webinar recording is available, and I’m still offering something special—a free, personalized 1-on-1 session to help you refine your plan.

This isn’t a sales pitch. It’s just me, sitting down with you to provide support, clarity, and a roadmap tailored to your goals. Think of it as my holiday gift to you.

The Year-End Reality Check

Let’s be honest—most people coast through the holidays, promising themselves they’ll figure things out in January. But you’re not most people.

If you’ve been:

  • Feeling stuck in your current role...

  • Unsure of what “being more strategic” or “having executive presence” really means...

  • Waiting for the right moment to take charge of your career...

...then now is the time to act.

Waiting until January might sound logical, but it often leads to procrastination. Momentum doesn’t start in the new year—it starts now.

A Personal Story

I worked with a client a few years ago who reached out right after Christmas. They’d been sitting on vague feedback from their boss for months: “You need to step up.” They didn’t know what that meant, but they knew they couldn’t keep waiting for direction.

We used the week between Christmas and New Year’s to map out their goals. By the end of Q1, they’d delivered on a key project that aligned perfectly with their company’s strategy. Not only did they get recognition—they were fast-tracked for a promotion.

The lesson? It’s not about waiting for the perfect time. It’s about deciding the time is now.

Take the Next Step

Whether you caught the webinar live or missed it, you still have a chance to create clarity and momentum for 2025. Here’s how:
