Happy New Year everyone! 🥂
Here are some the board’s favorite memories of 2025:

- traveling all over Argentina for 10 days, but also the screams of joy from my kids when I got home 🥹

- spending summer with the kids

- Celebrating my son Atlas’ first bday! Very cliche but one year with him meant leaving my career of 10 years and pivoting to SAHM, breastfeeding journey, daily home cooked meals, constant messy house and all the fun baby things in between.

- The best part of 2025 has been becoming a first-time mom after a very long journey and getting to watch my son grow through each season of the year.
waran.hart - Finding out I’m pregnant with twins! The most exciting and most terrifying part of this year!

- We are so fortunate to have had so many to choose from this year. The time we spent with the rescue lions (my spirit animal) in Zambia was certainly at the top of the list!

- Spending the last week in the Bahamas with my family!

- this pic of my sister and me because we haven’t been this close in years and it makes me happy!

- Starting a new job after 20 years with the same company!

- Turning 40 and celebrating in Mexico with my LGNN friends and my best friends from high school 🤍🤍

- Adventures with family & friends!

-Seeing how happy my kids were on the plane ride to Maine!

- Any day I get all 4 of my kiddos in one place and spend time with them all together is an amazing day!

- Welcoming baby Arthur into the world in March

- Vacationing with family in the UP.

- The trips I got to take with family and friends!

- Celebrating my 20th anniversary with my hubs in California! 🥰

- Watching my kids accomplish goals they have worked hard for, celebrating 15 years of marriage and just the mundane days with the family, finding the gratitude in the little things

- Having my nest full once again (even if only for a short time) with my daughter and niece living with us this year!

Merry Christmas to all that celebrate! Love, LGNN Board

We had a meaningful evening at LGNN’s Wine & Wills: Estate Planning 101 event led by Stephanie Posey of Posey Law Group, LLC! We sipped wine, asked important questions, and learned how estate planning is one of the most thoughtful ways to care for the people we love.

Huge thanks to for letting us use their beautiful space! With flexible memberships, private offices, and endless coffee, Enclave is perfect for professionals looking for a productive, stylish space close to home.

Big Transformation Energy & LGNN Shoutout!

Lauren and Michelle of The Sister Project are diving into the Year of the Wood Snake, exploring intuition, strategy, and shedding what no longer serves us—plus how this all connects with the Age of Aquarius! ✨ They also touch on self-care, food, personal style, and plenty of cozy chatter.

We loved having Lauren at our recent LGNN event—such a fun and inspiring night with our amazing community! If you missed it (or just want more of their wisdom and laughs), tune into this episode where LGNN gets a special shoutout!
