Choosing On Purpose: WHAT 2026 IS REQUIRING OF ME.

I’ve learned something in this season: growth doesn’t announce itself loudly. Most of the real work happens in quiet decisions no one claps for.

2026 isn’t about becoming someone new.

It’s about finally honoring what I already know about myself, my patterns, my faith, and my purpose.

As a therapist, I know insight alone doesn’t change lives. Awareness without action just turns into frustration. Healing requires repetition. Structure. Boundaries. Discipline.

And if I’m honest, this year is calling me to stop negotiating with myself.

Getting Clear on Priorities

Priorities aren’t aspirational. They’re practical.

They show up in how I spend my mornings.
How I respond when I’m tired.
What I allow access to me.
What I keep excusing even though it costs me peace.

In 2026, I’m choosing to align my life with what I say matters.
Not perfectly but intentionally.

That means fewer distractions and more direction.
Less reacting and more responding.
Less people-pleasing, more purpose-keeping.

Habits Don’t Lie

I tell clients all the time: your habits are data.

They tell you what you believe you deserve. They reveal what you’re trying to avoid. They show where discipline is missing not because you’re lazy, but because something deeper needs attention.

This year, I’m being honest with my habits.
The ones that support my healing—and the ones that quietly sabotage it.

Discipline, for me, isn’t punishment. It’s self-respect in motion.

Being Mindful About Access

Not everyone needs access to me. Not everyone deserves proximity to my process.

That’s not arrogance it’s stewardship.

As a woman who knows her purpose, I understand now that boundaries aren’t barriers. They’re clarity. They protect what’s sacred so it doesn’t get mishandled.

In 2026, I’m choosing relationships that are safe, reciprocal, and aligned. No more overextending myself just to feel connected.

Behavior Is Where Belief Shows Up

Faith is powerful but it shows up in behavior. What I tolerate. What I repeat. What I stop explaining. I’m no longer spiritualizing cycles that require accountability. Healing means choosing differently, even when it feels unfamiliar. Especially then.

Obedience Requires Discipline

There are things God has been clear about.
And clarity requires a response.

Obedience isn’t always comfortable.
Sometimes it looks like slowing down.
Sometimes it looks like walking away.
Sometimes it looks like doing the work before being seen.

This year, I’m choosing obedience that’s quiet and consistent. Not for performance. But for alignment.

Moving Into 2026

I’m not rushing this season. I’m building it.

With intention. With discipline. With compassion for myself.

Because healing isn’t about becoming flawless. It’s about becoming honest and living accordingly.

And that kind of growth? It lasts.
