Audacity, Authenticity & Alignment: Setting the Tone for 2026 Part ✌🏻

Welcome to 2026! The year of audacity, authenticity and alignment. In this refreshingly honest episode, we dive into what’s really on our minds as we step into a new year: recovering from health challenges (including gallbladder surgery), balancing family during school breaks, managing burnout, and the surprisingly tough art of slowing down. We talk about learning to rest with intention, rediscovering hobbies beyond screens (hello, needlepoint and Mahjong), and giving ourselves permission to delegate, outsource, and recharge. From the power of saying “no” to over-functioning, to designing systems that allow more space and joy — this conversation is an open look at how high-achieving women can move into the year doing less but better. We share their personal words of intention for 2026 and reveal exciting plans to grow the InspireHER Collective nationwide, and new opportunities for podcast sponsorships. If you’re ready to start your year with clarity, humor, and heart — this one’s for you. 🔑 What You’ll Hear in This Episode 🩺 The connection between women’s health, hormones, and rest 💫 Why “doing it all” isn’t the same as doing it right 🧘‍♀️ The art of intentional rest (and why it’s harder than it sounds) 🧵 Finding joy in simple hobbies — beyond screens and social media 👩‍💼 Delegation, boundaries, and creating support systems for growth 📆 Team check-ins, mentorship, and resetting work culture in 2026 🌍 Exciting plans for expanding InspireHER Collective 👯‍♀️ Join the Movement ✨ Want to surround yourself with ambitious, authentic women who get it?Join⁠ InspireHER Collective⁠ — a national community for women entrepreneurs and leaders who believe in collaboration, real conversations, and growing together. 📲 Keep the Conversation Going with Cheryl & Colleen ⁠Instagram: @doingthisrightpod⁠ ⁠YouTube: We’re Doing This Right.
