The finish line

Dear renegades, mavericks, and deviants,

I know that a lot of people are crawling towards the finish line right now. The run up to Christmas is always intense and I’m not going to add to the pile by giving you a full newsletter this week.

Instead, I want to say something simple.

I hope you’re looking after yourself and your teams. The work we do is demanding and it’s easy to forget that recovery is part of performance. If you can, take a proper break. Disconnect. Let your brain reset.

Thank you for reading these notes, challenging the ideas, sending feedback and sharing what’s working in your world. It makes this whole thing worth doing.

Wishing you a genuinely restorative Christmas break. I can’t wait for 2026 and I’m looking forward to sharing more ideas, research and insights with you in the new year.
