The Spark | 2025: A year of shedding, learning and laying foundations
Hello friends,
I was told recently that the Year of the Snake is about shedding old skin — making way for rebirth and renewal. When I look back now, that feels exactly right. As I reflect on the rollercoaster that was 2025, I get a strong sense that it’s been preparatory; a year of recalibration, enabling the next stage of People Mastery to unfold.
As I write this, I’m mindful that you may have had your own version of a rollercoaster this year, though I hope yours included more gentle inclines than loop-de-loops. Everyone’s year has been different: different wins, different challenges, different opportunities.
If you’d like to join me in a wee bit of reflection, I’d love to leave you with a few simple questions:
What’s the one thing you appreciate most about this year?
What was your most important learning?
What was the gift in the challenge?
What was your most significant conversation?
Who are you most grateful for?
From all of us at People Mastery, we wish you a restful and restorative holiday season, and a joyful start to the year ahead.
With love and best wishes,
Anna, JD, and Kirsty 🎄✨
