Hey Friend

Earlier today, I woke up without a tummy ache — a Thanksgiving miracle in itself (ha!). But what made the day even better was a moment of reflection with my family that I want to share with you.

It started when my wife gathered the kids for a little chat. She handed each of them two bags and said:

"I want you to fill these bags up. One with clothes, and one with toys. We’re going to give these to a family who can have just as much fun with them as you have."

Well, let me tell you, our daughter wasn’t thrilled. She erupted with emotions, as kids do when faced with letting go of their treasures.

But after some time, and a lot of calming words, my wife shared something so simple yet profound:

“If you want to receive more fun things for Christmas and your birthday, you have to show that you’re ready to receive them. But if your room is already overflowing with toys and clothes, how can there be space for anything new?”

Let that sink in, Friend.

As we move closer to a new year — a new journey — my wife’s words made me think about this in a bigger way.

What are YOU making room for?

Are you holding on to old habits, outdated methods, or relationships that no longer serve you? Are you clinging to things that are taking up space where something better could thrive?

If you’ve been waiting for that breakthrough, that opportunity, that big goal to come to life, maybe it’s time to let go of what’s holding you back.

Making room isn’t just about decluttering your closet — it’s about clearing your mind, your habits, and your business strategies for something greater.

So, as we step into the new year, ask yourself: What am I holding onto that I no longer need? And how can I make room for the life, business, and relationships I truly want?

This reflection might just be the shift you need to welcome the blessings you’ve been waiting for.

To new beginnings and more space for what matters,
