I Want To Get To Know You.
5 reflection questions to share what’s on your mind
How’s 2025 treating you so far? It’s such a hard question while fires are raging and Inauguration Day is only a few days away. At least all of the “new year - new you” talk has quieted down a bit; a bit.
I want to know anyway. How are you? How are you, really?
This week, I began to think about my year ahead. I don’t have clear plans or goals yet, and that’s okay. I remind myself often that nature is still sleeping - at least in this part of the world - and there is plenty of time. If you’re feeling the pressure, I invite you to wait until spring when the first flowers start blooming. There is time. Keep going inward.
I kicked off my reflection and planning with a Coaching with Collage session (thank you
!) to answer the question “What am I creating this year?” I’m really loving the process, allowing more time for the whole process to unfold—through journaling, creating art, and thinking.
One of my emerging themes is community.
In this next phase, I want to bring more of me into the world. I’ve allowed more of my unmasked me to shine in some of my relationships; bringing my intense, passionate, and chaotic parts that have often felt like too much and others rarely get to see.
In 2025, can I extend that to communities?
Can I create a sense of community while being my true self? Can I do it without the masks? Can I create community in a way that works for me, now, when I’m not even sure what that means exactly?
I don’t know.
I don’t know; and that is scary.
One thing that always works for me though is curiosity. When I get curious about myself and those around me; when I ask “what if” questions; it opens up worlds of possibilities.
I invite you to get curious with me.
I have five reflection questions (polls) below.
They are designed for you to reflect on what’s on your mind right now - both to help you get curious and also to help me get to know you, so I can continue to create an experience here that feels nurturing for you.
What else do you want me to know? What’s on your mind?
Let’s have a conversation in the comments. What are you looking forward to? What’s especially hard right now? Where do you feel stuck? How are you, really?
I am really looking forward to hearing from you!

My words of the year are community and connection, and I really want to become more connected with the people in closest to as well as my larger community. I loved how you said you want to bring more of yourself into the world. I want that too, and I also really want to invite the world in a bit more. I'm starting slow and resting a lot here at the beginning of the year, which feels good.
I love these questions! And the thoughtful options. I would love to meet you for a nature hike, if only we did live near each other, that would be the actual best! And I would really love someone to do my laundry (and tidy the house if possible!) as well as time to think :-)
