Will you Dare to Dream with me next Monday?
December 29, 2025
Dreamy Arctic Magic
I hope you're still in full-on holiday mode, so I'll keep this interruption short.
As I mentioned in my last newsletter, we're arriving at the final key in Resourced & Ready: The Ultimate R&R, and I'd love to celebrate together with a free live session at noon ET on Monday, January 5th. In this gathering, we’ll begin to explore what it might mean to Dare to Dream (Key #10). This isn't a goal-setting or planning session, though those may naturally emerge. There's no pressure and no expectations, just an invitation to give ourselves an hour to gently and freely explore our truest wishes.
I can't wait to see you, so please register here. And if you want to get a jump start, you might consider listening to my short walking musings to see if they spark anything. I'd love to hear from you if they do.
As always, thanks for being here, and thanks for being you!
Happy New Year,
Elizabeth
In this 13-minute video (recorded at this time last year), I walk us through a few reflective exercises to celebrate our accomplishments and get us thinking about the year to come. I hope you'll join me in taking a few minutes to savor our progress and look with hope to the future.
You may know that I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on how, for some of us, the academic environment is not merely challenging, but traumatizing. Exploring Pathways to Peace is a narrated slideshow that reviews common sources of trauma in academia (Preview: it’s not only catastrophic events), describes some of the symptoms, and offers tools for healing. I hope the presentation provides a path forward, whether you’ve experienced academic trauma yourself or you’re seeking to help others.
Whether you’re feeling empowered and energized or overwhelmed and exhausted, Resourced & Ready: The Ultimate R&R provides keys to finding balance and building resilience. I hope you’ll return to it often as you continue to navigate this uncertain terrain.
To support that process, I’ll be digging into a different key in each of my upcoming newsletters. We’ll explore the core concepts and consider simple ways to put them into practice.
We've almost completed our journey through the ten keys from Resourced & Ready! We'll explore the final key—Dare to Dream—together in a live session at noon ET on Monday, January 5th. Please register here to join us!
