This will be a year of change. A remix, if you will.<\/p>\n

As I wrote last summer on the announcement of Brown & Brown\u2019s acquisition of Accession Risk Management Group,\u00a0seasons like this<\/a>\u00a0bring a mix of excitement, questions and very real uncertainty. Change impacts differently depending on your current position, what you\u2019ve experienced and what you value.<\/p>\n

While this moment is specific to our organization, you may experience a remix in 2026 as well. And in times of change, our instinct is often to tighten our grip on control. It\u2019s why New Year\u2019s resolutions focus on setting goals, making plans and trying to engineer outcomes.<\/p>\n

But control is often a false sense of safety. The only thing we truly control is how we show up: our mindset, our presence and our openness to what\u2019s unfolding.<\/p>\n

Last year, my theme\u00a0Thrive in \u201925<\/a>\u00a0was about resilience \u2014 building daily habits that supported growth,\u00a0taking leaps<\/a>\u00a0even when fear was present and being more intentional about where we committed our time and energy.<\/p>\n

Remix in \u201926<\/strong>\u00a0is born of a resilience that evolves through deeper trust, presence and a willingness to listen to your intuition as the world changes around you. As everything around us shifts, what are you doing to \u201cremix\u201d\u00a0your life?<\/p>\n

For me, the answer is leaning into intuition even more.<\/p>\n

How to practice intentional intuition<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone has access to intuition. To you, it may be a \u201chunch\u201d or \u201cgut feeling.\u201d For me, intuition manifests as \u201chits.\u201d Sometimes it\u2019s a thought that arrives fully formed. Sometimes it\u2019s a feeling I can\u2019t immediately explain. I notice something and quietly file it away. But like public speaking or discipline, it\u2019s a skill that needs to be intentionally practiced.<\/p>\n

When external forces grow louder \u2014 our attention pulled outward into emails, meetings, conversations, and comparisons \u2014 our intuition has to compete for airtime. That\u2019s exactly when it becomes most useful.<\/p>\n

Over time, I\u2019ve found that practicing intuition comes down to three simple things:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Be present<\/strong>. Intuition is gentle. It\u2019s a quiet feeling.\u00a0Call that person. Say something differently. Pause here.<\/em>\u00a0Sometimes it\u2019s as simple as noticing the billboard you\u2019ve driven past for weeks, but suddenly connecting to it exactly when its message is what you need to receive. Nothing changed about the billboard, but your awareness shifted.<\/p>\n

Meditation helps me practice the art of being present and open to those moments. I woke up feeling overwhelmed the Saturday before Christmas this year, with everything that needed to be done and a heaviness I couldn\u2019t shake. Instead of pushing through it, I made a conscious decision to get centered and focus only on what felt good and joyful that day. I reminded myself to be in the flow that day \u2014 and something shifted. I still had a full list of to-dos, but one thing led to the next, and the timing worked out effortlessly.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0Recognize it.\u00a0<\/strong>Recognizing intuition is a practice that you get better at over time. Sometimes intuition comes through as a thought that feels different from the rest because it\u2019s accompanied by an inner knowing.<\/p>\n

One way to strengthen recognition is to ask better questions of yourself and then get quiet. I\u2019ll ask myself:\u00a0What do I need to know about this meeting or situation? Does this feel right?\u00a0<\/em>I close my eyes and take a breath. Your body is a powerful guide, and when you slow down enough to notice where signals live in your body \u2014 how does a\u00a0yes<\/em>\u00a0feel compared to a\u00a0no<\/em>? \u2014 it becomes easier to tell the difference between noise and intuition.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Surrender to it.<\/strong>\u00a0Surrender means being willing to follow an intuition hit even when your ego resists, or the intuition feels uncomfortable. Discomfort leads to growth, and our intuition pushes us in that direction as well. It\u2019s only when you surrender and act that you see the result. This is a blueprint for building trust in yourself and your intuition. Over time, it will stop feeling random and start feeling reliable.<\/p>\n

Over 20 years ago, I received a significant promotion. I was expected to give a straightforward acceptance speech at a formal dinner \u2014 stand up, say thank you, keep it polished and move on \u2014 but at that moment, I got an intuition hit. Instead of a canned speech, I felt compelled to thank people individually, by name, for their contributions to my growth.<\/p>\n

It felt vulnerable. It wasn\u2019t the \u201cnormal\u201d thing to do. But I surrendered, and as the room grew quiet and people felt my genuine gratitude, relationships shifted in ways that I couldn\u2019t have planned. People still talk to me about that moment when I relied on my intuition and pivoted, because it was impactful for them.<\/p>\n

How will you respond to change this year?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Remix in \u201926<\/strong>\u00a0is less about change itself and more about how we respond to it. Whether change shows up in your career or your personal life this year, I encourage you to shift the work inward. In 2026, let\u2019s listen to our intuition, trust it, and lead with adaptability over control.<\/p>\n
