Why we must celebrate more...
The importance of taking a moment to see how far you have come
When was the last time you really celebrated something?
I don’t mean just a quick “yay” in your head before moving on to the next thing.
I mean pausing, acknowledging, and actually enjoying the moment.
As parents, business, owners and high-achievers, we’re so focused on what’s next that we rarely take the time to appreciate what we’ve already done.
Had a tough week and still showed up with grace?
Managed your kid’s tantrums, calmly?
Launched something new?
Learned a skill that once felt impossible?
Presented to a room full of experts, even though you felt severe imposter syndrome? (that was me me above :)
These are all worth taking some time to celebrate.
But instead, we keep raising the bar.
We tell ourselves: “That was good, but I need to do more.”
We move on before the confetti even hits the ground.
The gap vs. the gain
I recently read The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy, and it completely shifted my perspective.
The book talks about how we often measure ourselves against the Gap—the distance between where we are and where we think we should be. This mindset leaves us feeling like we’re never doing enough.
But instead, we should be focusing on the Gain—how far we’ve already come, what we’ve achieved, and the progress we’ve made.
When we focus on the Gain, we feel more motivated, accomplished, and fulfilled. When we focus on the Gap, we feel like we’re always falling short.
And guess what? Celebrating your wins, even just for yourself, is the fastest way to shift into the Gain.
It was my birthday a few weeks ago, and whilst I didn’t get the chance to celebrate anything that day (I was teaching ALL day!), I want to celebrate with you today.
Because you—this newsletter community—are where my journey began.
This space was my first step into doing things on my own, into building something bigger than just me.
What started as a simple way to share insights on juggling work and parenting, AI, tech, and business has turned into a beautiful and growing community of incredible women learning and growing together.
This year alone, I’ve already done over 10 talks and trainings on AI—helping business owners, entrepreneurs, and creators harness AI to work smarter.
I’ve spoken about:
How AI is changing the way we work
How to create content faster with AI
The power of Custom GPTs for business owners
How to prepare our kids for an AI-driven world
All the talks and workshops I have done in person, over the next 5 weeks, I am bringing them online so they are accessible to everyone.
And for my birthday (that was 2 weeks ago!), I want to celebrate it by giving.
So, for the next 36 hours I’m giving 50% off ALL my recorded and upcoming LIVE AI workshops in February and March 2025.
I usually don’t share my workshops and trainings here, but this time I wanted to so I can reach as many women as possible. If you’d like to be on my email list where I share all my workshops, offers, and services, reply to this email “yes!” and I will add you to that list.

With love,
