You don’t need a rebrand for 2026.

A fresh notebook. A new planner. A Monday morning. We’re addicted to beginnings. There is something intoxicating about a reset, a promise that this time will be different. And true, novelty feels like movement, but it’s not the same as change.

Most of the time, the problem isn’t your brand. It’s your direction.

When the why is fuzzy, everything starts to feel off: your content, your offers, your pace, your decisions. So, you assume the solution is external: new visuals, a new strategy, a new identity. But without clarity, you’ll outgrow the new version just as quickly.

There’s a layer deeper I’d love to go with those of you who want to create clarity, become super intentional with your time, your energy, and resources.

You’ll want to set aside 30 minutes for this exercise, which you can do during your evening walk or wherever you get the most quiet time to think and reflect.

 Let’s get started.

1. Take a deep breath in through your nose and a long, slow exhale out of your mouth. Letting go of your day, your worries, what’s coming up next, or what happened just before. Simply be present in the moment with your breath.

2. Now, imagine yourself in one of your favorite places in the world. Paint the most vibrant picture, smell the smells, and feel how amazing it is to be there. Notice how content and peaceful you feel. Maybe even smile and pause to enjoy the stillness of being there.

3. Next, ask yourself these questions, and without judgment. Write down your answers or say them out loud:

-            What am I chasing?

-            Why am I sharing that thing, and what does it give me?

-            What’s been driving me?

-            Why am I putting my happiness on hold?

-            What do I really want – more than anything?

-            Am I willing to focus ONLY on things that matter most?

4. Take your time to answer these questions without editing and give yourself space to reflect on what this new information could mean for your life/business as you know it.

Chasing more and living in the mindset of “I’ll be happy when…” keeps people busy, burned out, and constantly reinventing instead of refining.

You don’t need a rebrand for 2026. You need clarity.
