Looking ahead to 2026 (and what’s shifting)


Hey Reader,

We’ve had a year.

My husband and I are ready to say goodbye to 2025. In case you’re new here, both of his parents passed away this fall, just two and a half months apart. It’s been devastating, but also, we are grateful. We had time with them over the past few years, took them on trips, and made memories. The grief is still heavy, but we did our best with the time we had.

There were moments when the caregiving was also heavy, and I wondered if this business was still the right path. So, I hired a coach. Best decision of 2024. He helped me become a stronger coach, see how my work is evolving, and reconnect with the bigger message I have to share.

As we look ahead, I’m holding hope that 2026 will bring better health for our family… and even more clarity and growth for Simply Enough Amy.

You’ve probably noticed: my coaching isn’t just about decluttering anymore. It never really was.

Because the stuff behind the stuff is life.

  • Your habits
  • Your chaotic calendar
  • The garage of your parents’ things you can’t bring yourself to sort through
  • The business you’re scared to talk about
  • The client you’re hoping will finally say yes

In 2026, my coaching will continue to evolve—into Life and Business Coaching for Women Who Want Less—but Better.

And don’t worry, it’s still 1:1. That’s my one offer. Because it works. Coaching lights me up. (Just ask my husband—he sees the smile on my face after every call, or hears me leave a voice memo on Voxer.)

This fall, I tested something new: a 4-week Business Bootcamp for 12 women entrepreneurs. We focused on:

  • Clarifying their one offer
  • Attracting clients
  • Simplifying social media
  • Mapping real revenue goals into real calendars

It was wildly successful (and so much fun).

At first, I wondered—Who am I to teach business?
But then I remembered: I’ve been doing this since 2016. I do have things to share. And in 2026, I plan to share even more.

So now, it’s your turn.
What are your life and business goals for 2026?

Hit reply and tell me—in one sentence. Keep it easy. I read and respond to every reply, and I promise you’ll see articles, videos, and resources from me that speak directly to your goals.

I’m taking some time off over the holidays to rest and recharge, but it would mean the world to me if you filled my inbox with your hopes for the new year.

Let’s chart our paths together.

All my best,
Amy
Life & Business Coach for Women Who Want Less—but Better

Hey Reader, Margin is a beautiful thing. Whether I'm designing an organizational system for a closet or helping a client map her business calendar, the goal is always the same: simplify. Subtract what isn't working. Make room for what is. Because when you reduce the volume of stuff, of commitments, of chaos — things have a way of organizing themselves. That's true in your closet. And it's true in your business. In a home, margin looks like a shelf that isn't filled to the edge. A counter you...

Hey Reader, I'll keep this short because I don't want to clutter your inbox. My next Business Bootcamp kicks off on March 24, and I keep the group small to give you the best experience. It's a group coaching environment with 1:1 support. I have a few spots on my calendar to prequalify you if you're serious about attracting consistent clients, growing your business, and achieving the time freedom you've dreamed of as an entrepreneur. This isn't a course you watch alone and then never implement...

Hey Reader, Were you the little girl who helped her friends clean their rooms? The one who actually enjoyed making the bed, putting things away, and bringing order to a chaotic space? Or maybe you were the little girl who always had an eye for fashion. Or who rearranged the furniture just for fun? Who could walk into any space and immediately see what it could become. If any version of that sounds like you, you're in good company. That's exactly how so many entrepreneurs get started....
