Happy holidays! As we approach the end of another year, our team at Women in Retail Leadership Circle would like to take a moment to thank you for your continued support and engagement. You inspire us to create new and better content and experiences. Our team will break for the holidays and be back in your inboxes on Wed., Jan. 4.

If there’s anything I’ve learned as we close out 2022, it’s to take back some time. Time to do something for no other reason than because it brings me pleasure. Time to be present and in the moment. Time to reflect on my successes and learnings. Time to set the stage for new opportunities.

In addition to wishing you all a restful and safe holiday season, I wish for you to have some time to do that thing you’ve been wanting to do. To listen to that podcast. To read that long article someone sent you weeks ago. To enjoy that cup of coffee in silence (even if it means waking up at 5 a.m.!). Being in the world of retail, you probably feel like the year went rushing by. Therefore, let me know how you’re slowing it down in the final days of 2022. We’ll see you in the New Year!

Cheers,
