Mentor Notes #110 - Don’t Write Off the Year Yet…


Mentor Note #110

Mentor Note:

"It is never too late to be what you might have been." – George Eliot

Lets Dive in...

Hello Reader,

Are you looking at your calendar thinking FAR OUT it's October? It's like July to September went by so fast, I blinked and I missed it! agh!

As I felt the pressure seep in thinking shit I haven't done this and that I thought of you.
It’s so easy to slip into the belief that “it’s too late.” That the window has closed for the goals you wanted to reach, the projects you dreamed about finishing or even starting, or the changes you hoped to make.

But here’s the truth: two months is plenty of time to create meaningful momentum. I’ve seen more breakthroughs in the final stretch of the year than sometimes in the first six months. Why? Because urgency awakens us. The turning of the year stirs something in us that says: If not now, when?

I’ve lived through this cycle myself - leaving projects unfinished, feeling like I’d run out of time. And I’ve also felt the electric energy of choosing to recommit. The difference between regret and renewal often comes down to the choice we make in this moment.

The Takeaway

The end of the year doesn’t have to be a slow fade-out; it can be a powerful crescendo.

Two months is enough time to:

✨ Start and finish a project.
✨ Shift your mindset.
✨ Build a new habit.
✨ Create clarity for the year ahead.

Most importantly, it’s not about doing it all - it’s about choosing what matters most right now and giving it your energy.

Something to Try

This week, take out your journal and write at the top of the page:
“By the end of this year, I will feel proud that I…”

List three things that, if you committed to them now, would leave you feeling charged, aligned, and ready for the new year.

Circle the one that makes your heart beat faster - that’s your focus for these next two months.

A SOULFUL INVITATION:

If you’re ready to close the year with power and purpose, I’d love to support you. My 1:1 mentoring is designed to help creatives shift out of fear and self-doubt, into clarity and inspired action.

Imagine finishing this year not drained, but alive with momentum - already building the foundation for everything you want to create in 2026.

✨ Let’s make these last two months count. ✨

Until next week,

Mentor Note #111 Mentor Note: "Surrender to change or suffer in a loop." – Unknown Lets Dive in... Hello Reader, I was thinking this week about my notes and how sometimes, when you look back on personal growth, it feels so much easier than living through it in the moment. Times of change, expansion, or elevation can feel like you’re drowning, like you’re losing yourself. They can be some of the hardest moments to navigate - even when you know they’re exactly what you need. I’ve seen it in my...

Mentor Note #109 Mentor Note: "You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop." – Kahlil Gibran Lets Dive in... Hello Reader, Lately, I’ve been reflecting on my own spiritual path. It’s funny how the universe works - I was deep in thought about it earlier last week, and then I stumbled across an interview with Madonna and Jay Shetty that echoed the very same feelings I had been sitting with. After my short but wild time in the spotlight, I felt an undeniable pull inward....

Mentor Note #108 Mentor Note: “Be so steady in your own energy that you invite people into your peace, instead of falling into their tension.” – Yung Pueblo Lets Dive in... Hello Reader, I came across this quote last week and it stopped me in my tracks. I knew right away it had to be today’s note. So many soulful, creative humans I speak with share the same concern: how to protect their energy. What begins as a subtle feeling from someone else - an off mood, a sharp comment, a quiet judgment,...
