What’s a word you want to embody or embrace in 2025?

Beyond setting resolutions, working toward goals, or defining specific intentions for the year ahead, you can choose a single word to center your year around—your word of the year! Whether it’s "growth," "balance," "courage," "progress," "consistency," or "joy," embracing a word can help shape your mindset and decisions throughout the year.

What is your word for 2025? Why does it resonate with you?

What’s a small daily habit that makes a big difference in your life?

Creating and maintaining habits that benefit and support our well-being can have a lasting impact on how we show up for ourselves and the world around us. Even the smallest actions—like drinking enough water, stretching when possible, or taking a few deep breaths throughout the day—can positively influence both our minds and bodies.

Whether it’s a mindful moment, a self-care routine, or an energy booster, the little things add up.

✨ What’s one small daily habit that has made a big difference in your life? If you don’t have one yet, what’s one you’d like to start? Share in the comments below! ⬇️

If you could visit any fictional, fantasy, or magical world, where would you go?

Happy Friday, Mighties! 💚

Let’s put on our creative caps today and imagine we could travel to any fictional world! Where would you go, and what would you like to experience?

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks first thought was the movie Ella Enchanted (lol), but she’d also love to visit her own version of Wonderland—a place where she could overcome her fears and limitations. 🤔

How about you? Where would you visit?

I am Mighty because…

While we are—and always will be—Mighty, taking the time to list our reasons can help ground us in our power. It serves as a reminder of who we are and all we’ve overcome, pushed through, and achieved to get to this moment.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says she is Mighty because she continuously embraces who she is, proves her depression, anxiety, and negative thoughts wrong every day, and grows at a pace that feels right for her.

Why are you Mighty?

What’s a negative or unhelpful thought you want to reframe, shift, or change today?

Negative thoughts can feel overwhelming and difficult to overcome, especially when they become repetitive. Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks is definitely feeling the weight of her negative thoughts today.

One way to challenge negative thinking is by reframing, shifting, or changing it. Instead of accepting the thought at face value, try asking yourself:

1. Is this thought based on facts or assumptions?
2. How can I turn this thought into something more compassionate, constructive, or neutral?

What’s one unhelpful thought you want to reframe today? 💭

💌 Gentle reminder: It takes practice and patience, but you deserve kindness—from both yourself and others.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks wants to shift the unhelpful thought that she’s not being a "productive" adult or that she’s missing out on what she’s "supposed" to be doing at her age. She’s challenging this thought by reminding herself that she’s not on a strict timeline and that there’s no need to compare her journey to anyone else’s.
