Welcome to 2026! This year, I’ve chosen a word that reflects how I want to show up, how I want my clients to feel, and the kind of legacy I want our work together to create: Impact. This word is about more than numbers on a spreadsheet. It’s about how your business supports your life, your peace, and your long-term vision.
Building Businesses That Support Real Life
When I think about impact, I think about helping business owners step out of survival mode. Too many entrepreneurs are building businesses that demand everything from them. Their time, energy, and mental space are constantly stretched thin.
My goal is to help clients build businesses around their lives, not the other way around. Because success shouldn’t come at the cost of your well-being. And building a life-led business is far more sustainable in the long run.
Creating Peace Through Financial Clarity
One of my biggest goals for clients in 2026 is to help them stop avoiding their finances. Financial clarity creates calm. When you know where your money is going, decisions feel lighter and more intentional. Clarity replaces fear with confidence.
I want clients to learn how to read the story their numbers are telling. Your financial reports aren’t just data. They’re feedback. They show what’s working, what needs attention, and where opportunities exist. When you understand that story, you gain control over your next steps, which fuels your business growth.
Confidence That Leads to Better Decisions
Impact shows up clearly when confidence replaces hesitation. I want to help business owners feel confident enough to take the leap toward the life and business they truly want. That leap might look like raising prices, hiring support, or changing direction entirely.
Empowerment often starts with simple but powerful habits. Paying yourself first is not selfish. It’s sustainable. Being intentional with every dollar doesn’t mean restriction. It means alignment. Making smarter decisions becomes easier when those decisions are rooted in clarity instead of fear.
What Impact Looks Like for My Business
This focus on impact also shapes how I want to grow my own business in 2026. I’m stepping more fully into an advisory-led role. I don’t want to be just a bookkeeper who receives numbers once a month. I want to be a long-term partner who helps guide decisions and strategy.
Being advisory-led means deeper relationships and forward thinking. It means asking more questions and helping clients plan for the future, not just review the past. The spreadsheets still matter, but the transformation they create matters even more.
Leaving a Legacy Through Confident Business Ownership
Impact also means spreading this message more widely. There are so many business owners who believe financial stress is just part of entrepreneurship, but it doesn’t have to be. With the right systems, support, and education, your finances can become a source of stability instead of stress.
That’s part of why I wrote Build the Business That Loves You Back, a book born from years of coaching ambitious women who are tired of doing business the way it’s “always been done.” It’s for entrepreneurs who are ready to stop running themselves into the ground and finally create businesses that work with their lives instead of against them.
This book is a powerful starting point for anyone craving clarity, confidence, and a more sustainable way to grow. If impact, peace, and intention are words you want to define your next chapter, this book was written for you. Your business can support you, and it’s time to build it that way.
