Hey Reader,

Six months into the year, to many it feels like we've already lived a lifetime. The impact of chronic stress on the body and mind is profound, including and maybe even especially the impact of collective chronic stress. These include:

• ​Shrinking the brain's prefrontal cortex, which impairs decision-making, planning, and goal-oriented behavior.
• ​Reduction in self-regulation capacity, which impairs time management, goal-tracking, and emotional control.

For changemakers, that impact is compounded by the nature of their work, and of the current times.

• ​According to the National Council of Nonprofits, in 2023, 70% of nonprofit and social impact professionals reported feeling emotionally depleted, and 52% struggled to maintain focus due to overlapping systemic and collective stressors.

We're all collectively feeling the weight of this polycrisis. It's time for a mid-year reset and realignment.

Because while there are many things out of your control in this collective chronic stress, YOU do have control over whether you have a solid plan in place to navigate the rest of 2025. That includes clear personal and professional intentions and goals.

That's why I'm excited to offer a FREE 2025 Life Planning Reset on Sunday, June 1st from 4-6PM ET (GMT-4). If you can't join us live, a recording will be available for purchase after the live masterclass.

I'll be reviewing how to:

1. Complete a mid-year goal and vision reset and realignment.
2. Consciously map out goals in each of the core areas of your life for the next six months and beyond.
3. Confront inner roadblocks such as fear, doubt, and grief that can get in the way of progress.

You get the free Life Planning Guide and a notification about the recording when you sign up.

Here's what past participants have said about the training:​
​
​"Meico's workshop came at the perfect time for me as it was the end of the year and I needed guidance on how to structure all the ideas that were jockeying to be top priority in my head. The workshop provided me with the framework to get moving in the right direction and showed me that everything wasn't a TOP priority. I appreciate Meico's style and approach. Thank you!" -Belinda K.

"The Life Planning Workshop was a perfectly timed personal development workshop. What I most enjoyed was the masterful combination of information and implementation that Meico provided. I've participated in several similar workshops in the past that focused exclusively on information. While the information was helpful, I often delayed implementation, which made it less effective. By the end of Meico's Life Planning workshop, I had a fleshed-out plan that I've begun to implement." -Gabriella C.

Hope to see you in class!
