2024 Was Not My Favorite Year

If I’m being honest, I didn’t love 2024. It felt flat and uninspired to me, and I didn’t feel connected to things the way I usually do. As someone who is used to being filled with fire and passion and drive and commitment…2024 was a very uncomfortable experience for me.

At a certain point, I realized I needed my own support. I’ve been a coach for a long time, and while I fully believe that I am doing the work alongside everyone I work with, I needed someone to hold a container for me. So I hired a coach. And then I hired a healer. And I let myself be guided.

This has led me to a lot of epiphanies, and I am committed to making some big changes in 2025. I want to call in some big things. Scary things. Things I’m not quite ready to share publicly because they are so big and so scary.

But it also had me writing my 2025 intentions in a very different way.

In the past, I’d write a list of all the things I wanted to call in: big dreams, hopes, and goals for the year ahead. But this year I didn’t want a list like that. I wanted alignment and embodiment.

Bear with me here…

There is a subtle nuance in manifesting between believing and knowing.

You see, I’ve always believed I could have/do/be whatever I put on my list, but knowing that to be truth is a far greater challenge. 2024 was a year that put my faith to the test, and I felt acutely the gap between believing in what I wanted and knowing it was already mine. This year, I intend to bridge that.

So instead of creating a static list of intentions for 2025, I am letting my process be fluid. 

I started by making stream of consciousness lists of what I want to create, allowing myself to wander into “bigness” and connect with what those desires truly mean for me. I didn’t just focus on what I wanted, I thought about who I need to become to receive it.

And then, I made a list of achievable commitments to help me become that person. I outlined:

  • The actions I would take to bring my creations to life

  • The blocks I would need to release so I could move forward 

  • How I would energetically embody the version of me who already lives this reality

My intentions are no longer just wishes. They are knowings, infused with clarity and purpose. Constructing my list this way felt so different - more grounded, more real, more alive.

Intentions evolve and grow as we do. They’re not something we set once and forget. They’re a living, breathing part of us that grows and shifts as we do.

This is why I love working with the Moon cycles - because they keep us connected with our intentions and help us refine them as we continue to move from hoping to believing, and eventually, into knowing.

The New Moon is a time to plant seeds, reflecting on what you want to create and calling in fresh energy.

The Full Moon is a time of illumination, helping you celebrate what’s working and release what isn’t.

Each Moon invites us to step deeper into the person we’re becoming, aligning our intentions with where we are in the moment. 

In order to truly embody what our intentions are, we have to approach them from 3 different levels:

  • The Cognitive Mind - by reflecting and setting clear intentions.

  • The Subconscious Mind - by reprogramming limiting beliefs through meditation connected to the conversation of reflection of the cognitive mind. 

  • The Energetic Body - by using reiki-infused baths to integrate and become the shift we are wanting to create.  

This isn’t about just wishing or thinking differently. It’s about becoming the person who knows their desires are inevitable.

When we anchor with the New and Full Moon, each new cycle offers us an opportunity to align with the energy of the moment. And these cosmic shifts are more than just a guide, they’re a way to connect with different facets of ourselves. 

The New Moon is all about beginnings, planting seeds, and setting the stage for what’s to come. When it’s in Capricorn (as it just was), I focus on structure and ambition. When it’s in Cancer, I nurture my emotional foundation. Every New Moon gives me a chance to reset and realign with my goals. 

The Full Moon is the culmination. It’s a time to reflect, release, and celebrate. A full moon in Leo reminds me to step into my confidence. One in Pisces asks me to release old fears and lean into trust. These phases guide me through each layer of transformation.

These aren’t just passing moments, they’re invitations to align our intentions with the cosmic energy around us and deepen our connection with our Future Self.

This year, it’s not just thinking about change, it’s fully embodying it. Each New and Full moon serves as a touchstone, a time to reassess, realign, and anchor into the knowing that our desires are already here.

In the Guided by the Moons, we work on all three levels:

  • The cognitive level, where reflective conversations bring clarity and actionable steps to our intentions. 

  • The subconscious level, through meditations designed to shift old patterns and realign with our true desires.

  • The energetic level, using reiki-infused sound baths to integrate all the work.

This holistic approach is how I’ve transformed my life and how I continue to support others in stepping into their full knowing.

If you’re ready to move beyond belief and into the certainty of knowing, Guided by the Moons is here to support you. You will align with each new and full moon, syncing your intentions with the natural rhythms of the cosmos and anchoring your transformation on every level. 

This isn’t about writing intentions and hoping they happen—it’s about becoming the person who knows they will.

 

Guided By The Moons is the program that will connect you with your divine nature and intuition. You will learn a spiritual yet grounded approach to connecting with your most intuitive and empowered self…a self that is led by the Moons and held by the cosmos. This is more than a group coaching program and way more than an astrology course: it's a way of life. 

 

Guided By The Moons helps you live in rhythm with the cycles and wisdom of the Moon, and to use their energy to amplify your own. You will learn how to tap into the unique lessons provided by each Moon, making sense of the cosmic timing of things.

 

We will have twice monthly LIVE New + Full Moon Workshops (that will be part conversation and coaching, and part meditation), a private Facebook group that I will pop into with downloads and inspiration, and a weekly Energy Report discussing the current astrological forecast…all of which will help you make life feel as good as you dream it can be.

 

While we won't be learning all the technical astrology stuff, we will be learning how to use the cosmos to stop the inner chaos, be guided by something greater than our monkey minds, and embody who we came here to be.

 

Guided By The Moons will be scaffolded by the same principles taught in my Masterclasses, and for a limited time, you will receive all three of my three most popular ones (Unlock Your Future Self, Find Your Calm, and Relationship Alchemy) when you sign up! You'll be able to dive into the work as soon as you enroll, before we take off into the cosmos in January. 

 

Capricorn season reminds us that real transformation comes from discipline, patience, and alignment with our purpose. It's a time to step back, reconnect with what truly matters, and take inspired action toward the life we want to create.

 

So let's get guided…
