Patti’s New Year’s Resolutions: 2026

| Patti Webb

Last week, I passed my PMP certification exam. This was my biggest goal from 2025, and I’m so relieved and excited to have that under my belt. Last year (hopefully) was the end of a tumultuous couple retrograde years and I’m happy to put it all in the rear view with something tangible to show for it.

Now that I’m out from underneath the studying, I’m faced with a million different TikToks of young 20-somethings figuring out planners and annual productivity goals for the first time…

Mary’s New Year Resolutions: 2026

| Mary Stoffel, MOT, OTR/L

I’m proud to say that I accomplished most of my resolutions from last year. 2025 became a real reset for me, serving as a chance to recharge and rethink how I want to move through this next phase of life.

This year is about real follow‑through, committing to making progress on the goals I’ve let slide in the past. In the clinic, I used SMART goals to help ensure that care is clear, measurable, and aligned with my clients’ needs:

  • Specific – the goal is clear and focused
  • Measurable – progress can be tracked and know when it’s achieved
  • Achievable – realistic to one’s current capacity and circumstances
  • Relevant – aligns with one’s values and priorities
  • Time-bound – the deadline or time frame for the goal to be met

Using this method for my resolutions, I’m aiming to lock these habits in for good. It’s a lifestyle change; a deliberate break from routines that just don’t fit me anymore.

We’re going easy for the first content week of the year, by sharing our latest Mom Date review. Mary and I were both hosting and coordinating for what seems like the entire holiday season. So, we took advantage of a quiet window of time last weekend to visit the new SweatHouz that just opened up by me.

SweatHouz is a modern wellness studio, using infrared saunas, cold plunges, and contrast therapy to reset the body and mind.

Patti’s Favorite Post: 2025

| Patti Webb

Sometimes I feel like a bit of a forecaster. I knew 2025 was going to be a bit of an abyss, but not on so many fronts. This year, my favorite post to write was our Mammogram Mom Date in celebration of Mary and I turning 40. But since then, my health has been a bit…

The goal behind writing our Mammogram review was to enthusiastically remind moms that their health is important and taking care of ourselves shouldn’t feel like a burden. I still stand behind that because prevention and proactiveness are good habits. Since high school, I’ve pushed through sickness, worked until I lost my voice and (for one day) my eyesight. I’ve had stress dreams and red-eye flights. I’m constantly putting sunblock on my kids and never on myself, literally and metaphorically. To think that this doesn’t have a long-term effect on our health is delusional.
