Hot take: naps are a performance tool.
When I was dancing professionally, napping was part of the job. â
Train. Rehearse. Eat. Nap. Perform. â
It wasnât lazy. It was strategy. â
A 20-minute nap restores focus, creativity, and patience faster than another cup of coffee. â
Which reminds me⊠â
I recently found out my dad used to take a 3pm nap under his desk at work. â
Dad, sorry for outing you on the internet. â
But honestly? You were ahead of your time. â
At @thetrianglesessions , we talk a lot about sustainable performance. â
Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is close your laptop⊠and your eyes. â
So yes, Iâm officially advocating for normalizing napping. â

January energy is real - but so is January burnout. If youâre leading differently this year, weâre here for it đ

My biggest takeaway of 2025: if youâre in a rut, go back to what you love.
One year ago, I broke up with dance.
I thought stepping away would help me focus on the next chapter. Build the business. Move forward.
By early 2025, I was in a funk.
So in the spring, I went back to ballet. Just once a week. By summer, I was teaching master classes. By fall, an opportunity came up to perform again.
And thatâs when everything shifted.
My creativity came back. My business improved. Clients (both old and new) got excited about their wellness journeys in 2025-2026.
Sometimes going back to the thing you love isnât a distraction. Itâs what fuels you to move forward.

One Thing Iâm Not Bringing Into 2026: My Phone in the Bedroom
â° I bought an alarm clock. My phone stays downstairs at night.
Now when I wake up, I have a moment of peace. Instead of immediately scrolling and letting the world flood in before Iâve even gotten out of bed, thereâs clarity. My mornings are mine again. I wake up early, move slowly, ease into the day. No inbox. No notifications. Just me. đ„°
Whatâs one thing youâre leaving behind in 2025?
Sometimes the most powerful form of self-care is remembering you're never walking into a room alone.
You carry the people who've loved you into every meeting, interview, and new space you enter. That's what real confidence is: not looking perfect or having the right title, but knowing you're grounded in something deeper.
People feel it, even if they can't name it.
Before you start your day today, take a breath. Think about the people and memories that anchor you. Let them walk in with you.
You don't go alone.

đź Workplace wellness in 2026 isnât about checking boxes anymore.
Gone are the forgotten gym memberships and one-off team events that never quite landed. Whatâs replacing them? Something more thoughtful, more human, and honestly, more effective.
The shift is simple: from âwe did a wellness thingâ to âwellness is woven into how we work.â
Think micro-moments of joy that fit into real workdays. Creative expression as self-care. Connection-first experiences that spark genuine conversation. Skills you can actually take home and use.
Because holistic wellness isnât siloed. Itâs not physical health or mental health or team connection. Itâs all of it, together.
Whether your team is in-office, remote, or somewhere in between... consistent, meaningful touch points build culture. Not random events. Not another blocked calendar hour. Just practices that stick.
Swipe to see whatâs in and whatâs out for corporate wellness in 2026. đ

Shoulder flossing: like flossing your teeth, but for your shoulders.
Three moves. Takes 60 seconds. Your desk-worker shoulders will thank you.
(And unlike actual flossing, you might actually do this one regularly.)

Workplace wellness doesn't have to be a snoozefest.
Last week, we partnered with @hitachienergy on a two-hour wellness experience for their Charlotte conference.
Their team understood what would resonate: practical stress management tools, work-life balance insights, and something interactive that felt engaging (not obligatory).
The result?
People enthusiastically participated.
They stayed engaged.
They walked away with tactics they'll actually use.
Why did it work?
Wellness wasn't an afterthought. It was a centerpiece...a shared moment that set the tone for the rest of the conference.
The best wellness programming happens when companies know their people and design intentionally.
Grateful to have been part of this one. đȘ

Gillian Murphyâs final bow was breathtaking â not just for her artistry, but for her humility. The longest bow wasnât to the audience, but to the dancers beside her.
As a former dancer, I felt that deeply. A career on stage isnât fueled by talent alone. Itâs sustained by the people around you â their support, respect, and camaraderie.
Cheers to thriving by lifting up one another! đ

Feeling overwhelmed? Try this. đ§ âš
Mel Robbins reminds us that the key to a great week starts with a brain dump. Get everything out of your head and onto paper â and then find one thing that actually matters to you. Make a little progress on that, and feel the emotional lift of momentum. Itâs not about doing it all â itâs about doing what moves you forward. â
