The Finish Line 2025 - Day 3

Transcription

Facebook live. How are you today? Melanie and Layer coming to you here for the last and final piece on my public profile of the finish line program.

So, this is a program that is usually paid every year and this year I felt like the world needed to have it for free. So, I've put it up on my social media and it will be up on here until January 3rd and then at 10 p.m. it'll be taken down and it'll be hosted only in my movement, which is my membership. So, we're going to go in for day three today.

And I just want to say before we dive in, just to give you some context, like I have had challenges every day of this master class on my public profile. On the first day, we had issues getting me on. It wasn't working and we ended up not even being able to put it public until after I had done recording. Yesterday we had a whole other set of issues. Today I'm I'm on my own and all of a sudden the thing didn't work. I had to go find another HDMI cable. Things happen when you go live, when you do things live. And so I could have just recorded these in advance, um, weeks ago and just kind of dropped them for you guys. That would have also worked.

But the magic of what I'm doing with you is that it's not just your finish line. It's my finish line. It's not just how how do you how do I help you go through the finish line? It's like how do we go through the finish line? How do I go through the finish line? And a lot of the programs that I deliver are so powerful, not just because they're good programs, but because as I deliver them, they change me. As I deliver them, I'm experiencing them. And that's a promise I've made myself ever since I've been doing this work is that this isn't something that I give. It's something that I share. This is not something that I tell people to do or teach people how to do. This is the way I live my life and I lead it and you walk with me and I know this all works because I'm my best student and it it it this work changes my life and if I didn't think it mattered all that much I wouldn't do it anymore. I'd think I know all this information now. Let me just sell all the recordings. But the fact is being present and thinking in this way, showing up in this way, contemplating in this way, it really does change my life. And it's why I keep showing up for it live and I don't just get everything recorded even though I have so much material I probably could.

The real transformation is not in just talking to you about a finish line. It's about leading myself through the finish line on New Year's Eve when there's a million other things to do and not being able to get into my live stream like when I don't I don't have to do it. It's a free thing. Like all these challenges come up and it's just part of the game. And I think we just sometimes forget that life is not supposed to just be oh well everything I want just happens to me and I have it and that's it. And it's like when it matters, the challenges are part of the game. It's how you it's how you get back up. It's how you figure it out. It's how you course correct. It's how you pivot. It's how you deal with it. And then obviously while I'm talking about that, I get all the challenges myself so that I can also, you know, live my own finish line. And that's just the way it's just the way we do.

So today is day three. When I'm done this video, I will uh put in the body of the video day one and day two so that you can watch the replays if you haven't done that. Who here has been present for day one and two or who has watched day one and two that's here live? I'm just gonna open this so I can see the comments section and I will pin this one to the top instead. Okay, I'm saying happy new year everyone. Every Happy New Year's Eve everyone. Yay. Okay, I can see the comments here. Happy New Year's Eve B. Me. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. I was there. So good. Thank you so much for being here. This is wonderful.

So, we have some draws today. We've got some people who are going to win some Alpha notebooks. So, yesterday they were white. So, the people who are going to win are going to win white ones. But, there's also going to be another draw that we're going to draw on the 3rd of January, um, for these beautiful Alpha pen notebooks. These notebooks I love so much. They're like the perfect folder of secrets, of transformation, of change. I actually used the green one for all my money wins, which is really fun. And so when you win Alpha, you also win a notebook so that you can document all of your best things of 2026. Uh, you can also buy these on the Alpha Fam like shop. But today, three people are going to manifest one of these along with Alpha. So, I'm going to start with the two first winners and then at the end we'll do the last one and on the third there will be three more winners.

So, how you get into the draw is first of all you share the live stream. So, if you want to participate in the end of today's draw and tomorrow's draw, all you do while I'm live, you share, share the live stream while I'm live. Let let me know in the comment section that you have shared. And if you can let people know that this is a free program and that they're getting to watch it or it's a paid program and they're getting to watch it for free until January 3rd and to watch all three before they disappear because they're going to disappear. Um, that would be absolutely fantastic. So I am going to draw the two first people.

So the first way, okay, the first way to do it is you share while I'm live. So you share this live stream. The second thing is there's this beautiful animation for the finish line. If you have watched it, you can vouch for it. It's just even just the animation within itself, I feel tells a story. Even if people didn't get a chance to watch the master class, if they could at least see the beautiful video that was made that with the writing and the music, there's something about it. And so you share that. That's the second way. And the third way is that while I'm talking, you take little videos. Uh, I prefer videos to pictures because I have a very expressive face and I tend to be mid this whenever people take pictures of me and I don't look the best. So, little videos are cuter because, you know, very animated. Uh, and take a little video and tell me what your biggest takeaway is of the day or the the thought that came to you because of the conversations we've been having. So, those are the three three ways you can enter the draw.

So, I'm going to pull two first people now. So, AlphaFam team, when you're ready, we're going to draw our first winner of $222 in AlphaFam money and a beautiful AlphaFam notebook. So, when you're ready, whoever our first winner is. Oh, and it's going to be your birthday on January 30th, then. Happy birthday in advance. Um, last gym for this year before New Year's Eve celebrations. Happy New Year, Kasha. Enjoy your workouts. Grateful that you're catching me too, Lenny. Thank you for being here. Okay, let's see. My Wi-Fi just booted off. Telling you, the challenges are challenging right now. Can we get me back on to the Wi-Fi team may have already given us our answer, and I haven't seen it yet. Let's see where we're at. Um, present for all three. Hi Nikki, so good to see you. Lisa, you just got your flowers. I love you. Happy New Year's Eve. Happy New Year's Eve. Okay, shared, shared, shared. Let's see. Where are we at? I'm not seeing it. So, Alpha team, we need a winner for the $222 in Alpha. Hello, Alexina. Happy New Year's Eve, Patricia. The animations are the best. Here's to my eyes. So grateful. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much, everyone, for sharing. This is wonderful. Did I miss it? Did you guys see who it is? I don't see the winner. The AlphaFam team has shared. Tell me again. I can't see it. It must have come through when my Wi-Fi dropped. Oh, Lucy Joy. Lucy Joy Sartiel. Congratulations, you are the winner of $222 in AlphaFam money. So, you could use this towards a month in the movement if you like. As a matter of fact, right after this last call, we're going to have our finale, the final drop of the year, final call of the year inside of the movement. And so, if you wanted to jump in in time for that, you'd be able to catch that. Congratulations. Or you can use it towards whatever you like. But a full month in the movement, always a very good idea. Plus, when you're in the movement, every month that you pay for, you get $111 in Alpha. So, you spend 222 a month, but you keep 111 in a bank so that later on you can kind of gather them and end up moving towards other things. My vision for the movement is it's the place that allows you to move. The place that you say, "Yes, let me start here and then let me work my way into whatever I want." Like, let me let me start here. The movement is an incredible place and all of the people in AlphaFam experience and all of people in House of Vote and all the people that are in my bigger containers are all in the movement. So it is very diverse tapestry of people in there and it is spectacular.

Okay, so we have a second winner and this person is going to win $2,222 in AlphaFam money and a beautiful AlphaFam notebook. So, AlphaFam team, whenever you are ready, let me know who is our winner for $2,222 of AlphaFam money. Our winner is, thank you for recommending the movement. Thank you, Heather. Thank you, Priscilla. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Ingred. Thank you for sharing, Livia. Our winner is Sharon Koshy. Congratulations, Sharon. You win $2,222 in AlphaFam money. I was going to say you could use this towards the year in the movement or you could use this towards resolution revolution. Well, you guys still could do that. And then you can kind of move. Uh, do the credits disappear if you leave the movement? Yes, they're for active people in the movement. So, while you're in the movement, you get to have all these credits. Then, if you decide to leave the movement, credits expire. Um, but it says that on the sales page. Okay. Yay for the movement. Congratulations. Congratulations. But, Sharon, you can do whatever you like really because you're in an abundant space. Congratulations. This is wonderful.

Now, I want to give an important announcement. Very important. Yesterday I spoke about this, but it was at the end of the live stream and we went really long yesterday. Yesterday was the really big chunk. So when you end up re-watching this finish line, day two might take you a couple of days to get through. But at the end, what I talked about was how when we change our lives, who made it yesterday to the end, by the way, just out of curiosity. What I talked about yesterday is when we ch when we change, the best part about it is it we don't just change for us, we change and the world gets impacted. And I talked about the Change the Stars summit that I've been supporting. One of my incredible clients, Ally, put together this summit where 100% of the proceeds go to children in Haiti. And she set this whole thing up. Her and her team have worked so hard to build it and she's found these incredible speakers to speak at it and the every single speaker brought absolute gold. I was also a speaker at it and uh, they were it was $33 per ticket and what happened is basically anyone who purchased the $33 ticket got all the wisdom from all the speakers and their entire $33 went towards helping children in Haiti. And there was a breakdown when I was on there live with her. I kind of talked about all the ways like $50 a day gives formula for a month and $125 gives food and housing for one child for one month. And then there's like education, $1,000 gives this much in education. And the breakdown was so incredible. It was like every chunk that we hit like every two people who give $33 were able to give formula. Every, you know, four or five people who give were able to give food and housing for a month. Every few people and it's like seeing the compound effect of what we're giving was so incredible. But then people started saying, "Well, can you tell can you give us links to donate more if we want? Like what if we wanted to give more than $33? What if we want to what if we want to sponsor a kid for a month of food and I scratch my throat. What if we want to sponsor a child's food and housing for a month? What if we want to give 125? What if we want to give?" And so it took a moment because she had to readapt her entire sales page, but she eventually did it where there are different ways. You can give $33 and receive the summit or you can give more and and really sponsor bigger amounts. Yesterday we had people that really gave beautifully and generously and it was incredible. And I really want to make this such a an easy move for you. And so what I ended up doing is saying that until midnight tonight, anyone who donates on Change the Stars, whatever it is that you donate, you receive an AlphaFam money. So if you decide to donate, you know, $33, you get the summit, but you also get $33 in AlphaFam money. If you donate $50, you get the summit for $33, but you also receive $50 in AlphaFam money. If you give 125, you'll get $125 in credits in AlphaFam money. Yesterday, the per one person put $2,500 in and received $2,500 in AlphaFam money. And so it's like, can we go through the finish line, not just for us, but for them? If you're planning on moving forward with me in the new year, if you want to be in the movement, if you want to purchase I am the one, if you want to purchase, um, if you want to purchase the Resolution Revolution, if you're like, you know what, I'm in for 2026. I want to I want to do this work. Then can we work together and change the stars at the same time? So, if the AlphaFam team wouldn't mind putting the link there while we're live, if at any point you you purchase things like that, you'll have until midnight tonight to um to donate and then you'll be able to get the the same amount back in AlphaFam. Just a reminder that my team will be done after my live streams today. So, they'll be back on on the 3rd of January and that's when you'll be able to to speak to them beyond that. But at least you can make your donation today and secure your AlphaFam credit. So if you end up doing that, please let me know in the comments section. I want to celebrate with you. This is such a huge deal. And if this is what we do, if this is the last move we make in 2025 that sets us up for 2026. And so this is very much in alignment with what I want to share for our last and final day. So I think this is the right time to start our animation, get in the vibes of the finish line and take this through to the end. AlphaFam team, whenever you are ready, would you please run our beautiful finish line animation? Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat up here. Heat. Heat. Heat up here.

All right, here we go. Day three, the final piece of the puzzle of the finish line program. This is going to be available on my public page until January 3rd and after that it's going to be taken down and it's going to be posted only in the movement. So again, AlphaFam team, if you don't mind posting a link to the movement in case people want to make sure that they're in there and we're going to do our finale, our final piece of the puzzle once this call is finished directly in the movement after that.

This is such an important program for me because it it gets me in a space of heightened emotion and awareness. I think that as we approach the finish line, there's so many things to do. It's easy to go on autopilot. Do we have enough food for the party tonight? Do we have balloons? Do we have party poppers? You know, what's the plan? Who's coming over? Are we going somewhere? Is the dress ready? Is are our nails done, hairs done, hair done? Have you gotten your last workout of the year in? Have you made lunch? Have you? There's a million things on your mind and it it's such an incredible thing to be able to kind of drop in and anchor in. This is the end of the year. We did it. Like we all get to cross the finish line. We all get to move into 2026. What an incredible thing. Like we're here. We made it. And to look at at these last few hours because that's really what we're facing at this point is the last few hours before we just cross over just like that. And so what do we want to place in 2025 as final memories? What how do we want to set the table for 2026? And sometimes we think it takes these really big grand gestures, like if you haven't done it by now, it's too late. But there might be some really easy things that you can do for yourself that when you wake up in 2026, because of what you did tonight, you feel like you're set up differently.

Is there a conversation with someone like you know there's been an apology needed for the longest time but you've not been able to find the right time. What if it was now? Few minutes before the new year. I want to leave whatever whatever we've failed at in the past in 2025. I want to do better with you in 2026. I'm sorry or I accept your apology. Like, is there a move you can make in 2025 that changes 2026? Is there something you can do, no matter how big or how small that because of that, when you wake up in 2026, it's not a to-do list anymore, it's something that's been done. Is there something you've got to declare? Is there something that you're ready to put out there that you've been waiting to share that has just felt like when when's going to be the right time? When should I say it? Well, what if it's the last move that you make in 2025? What if you set the table for 2026 in these last few hours? If there's just an energy that you want to be in in in 2026, there's a way that you're, you know, you're capable of being a little more empowered or sharper or more driven, whatever it is. And it's like, I'll be that in 2026. Could you would you put on that identity today and see if you can cross the finish line wearing it? Is there a conversation you'd love to have with your parents or your siblings? Is there something you want to say that that gets to redefine 2025 because that happened in 2025? Is there something you'd like to put in this year? Just the simplest thing, a phone call, a dance memory, an intentional hug, a meaningful conversation. Is there something that you can put right here at the finish line that would set the table for 2026?

So, I've contemplated this often in my life, this feeling of like when I have big things that I I desire, things that I don't know how to do them, big goals, you know, when you're like, "Okay, I want to double my business or I want to I want to meet a a new friend or I want to fall in love or I want to like things you put on your list that's like I don't know how I'm going to do that. I don't really You're not in full control of it. It's not like I want to go make my bed where you just go upstairs, take the sheets, make the bed. It's like where are the people? Who's the person? I can't just I can't just create the person. They have to It's a co-creation. How does this happen? But what I realize is that most of the things in my life that have really transformed my life, I can I can pinpoint the moment. I can pinpoint the conversation, the I can pinpoint the the meeting. I can pinpoint the first kiss. I can pinpoint the first conversation in the inbox. I can pinpoint the breakthrough, the moment of connection. I can pinpoint the moment the payment came through. I can pinpoint the way the moment the news came in. Like I can remember that moment and all the moments in between of me either holding the frequency and and believing it's possible and acting in accordance with my belief systems in faith instead of in fear. That was what we talked about on day one. As I really start creating my life every day. Maybe those memories don't show up every day, but when they do, it's this one moment. And there's times where I fully am responsible for that moment. I said what I needed to say. I made the decision. I offered the thing. I I said the thing out loud. I owned the thing. I did it. Sometimes it's like that. And other times I've been doing things with nothing responding forever and all of a sudden the response comes in. I get the yes, I get the I'm in. I get the I agree. I accept. It's okay. Yes. Like all of a sudden the answer comes. So either I do something or all that I've been holding all of a sudden gets a response. These are two of the ways that things happen in my life.

There's a few hours left at the end of the year. You can make memories tonight that redefine 2025. Because the thing is, you already know what's happened up until now. You already know exactly how the year has gone up until now. What if you threw a plot twist in there? What if you declared something bold? What if you put your heart on the line for something? What if you mended something or made something right? What if you had the courage to end something or walk away from something? What if tonight as your last move of 2025, you give yourself something that sets the table for 2026? Why I love thresholds is because they really end up just being what we make them. I always utilize as much as I can every opportunity in order to transition into something because it's hard to transition. We're like, I'm going to transition on Monday. Like we talked about yesterday, that moving shelf. It is Monday. Next Monday, you know, there's always another time to do it. But when there's a meaning with the time, when it's like this is New Year's Eve, what could I put here? Because it matters. New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, the solstices are your birthday, your anniversary, like whatever reason there is to say this date matters. You place something on that day, life begins to change. And sometimes it's not even something that you do in order to change your life. It's just a memory. And so I wanted to share this because I think that this is like a beautiful example. I've been so fortunate the last few years. My sister's been spending Christmas Eve and Christmas morning at my house for the last 3 years with her little boy Frankie and her and her fiancé. And every morning, every Christmas Eve, Frankie goes to bed and then wakes up in the morning. And I have gotten to see this little boy live Christmas morning every year for the past three years. Well, two and a half years, two and a half years old, but three Christmases. And I've savored every moment because although at the beginning she was like this, I'm always going to do it like this. I'm never going to not want to do this. I always kind of had the feeling we'll see. I never took it for granted because I knew that like things change. You know, right now he's so small. There will come a moment where she has this like relationship with him, where she talks to him and he understands and she's going to want to put all her focus on him. It's going to happen. I knew it. And so, every Christmas morning, I just savored every moment. I took a million pictures, but I also sat in full presence. I I watched everything unfold. I I I I felt grateful for every moment. I spent the time. I really lived the moments. And because of that, when my sister said this year, actually, this is going to be our last Christmas because now she's extremely pregnant. Any second now, this baby could come. She's a full term, so it could be anytime. Due date's meant to be January 13th, but it could be anytime between now and then. When she said, "You know what? Actually, I think this is going to be our last Christmas present because starting next year, I think I I do want to do Christmas morning with my kids." Although, I'm like, "Oh my gosh, I I'm so grateful. I'm so grateful for the three years I got." Like, which auntie gets to get Christmas morning? Like, my godson I got to see. But I lived those those mornings like they were a gift. Even though she said, "I'm going to do this forever." I didn't I didn't just go, "Oh, I'm going to have a a lifetime of these." I knew inside there was a possibility because things change. And I'm so grateful I lived it that way because I don't have a feeling of like, "Oh, I wish I wish I would have known that this was going to happen. I would have lived them differently." It was like, I lived them beautifully. Like I could have them forever and it could be a fleeting moment. So either way, I just took it all in. I didn't let little things bug me. I only just focused on the beauty. I have a million memories. And when I think of like how my life has been changed by having those three Christmas mornings with this little boy. My life changed the most beautiful way for that. But I wasn't changing my life by having a meaningful Christmas morning. I wasn't like, "Oh, I've got to be really present here in order to change my life." It was just like, "How present can I be?" And in hindsight, when I look back, I'm like, "Thank goodness I had the wherewithal to live it that way because that changed my life."

So, this is New Year's Eve 2025. It's not going to be perfect. There's possibilities that your kids are going to fight. Someone's going to show up late. You'll you'll miss the countdown because you'll distracted and you're like, "WHAT? IT'S ALREADY 2026. Oh my gosh, we missed the countdown." Anything could happen. But it doesn't matter. What matters is whatever memories that you are able to pull through the finish line. Because when we really think about it, if we're lucky, we get a hundred. If we're very lucky, we get a 100 New Year's Eve. You probably don't remember the first five. You may not remember the last five. So, let's say you get 90. If you're really lucky, you get 90. You've had a lot of those already. There not that many nights like tonight in a life. You could actually recall and count the ones that really impacted you. Could say, "Oh, I remember that New Year's Eve. That's the one where dot dot dot." And the thing is, and I've talked about this in the two past days, the more you add emotion and nostalgia, the more you add emotion to things, the more you remember. So, you could very, very well remember 90 memories in your brain of your life. What if you could remember 45 Christmases over the course of your life? 45 New Years. 45 half. Wouldn't that be incredible? What if this year is one of them? And not because it was perfect or grand, not because nothing went wrong, but because there's a memory that happened. Maybe this is the year you dance with your partner or your child or your mom or your dad in a way that you're like, I'm I'm clocking this one. This matters. What if it's just in the intentional way you raise a glass where you really lock eyes and you say, "I'm not going to forget this one." What if it's in the way you say I love you? What if it's in the way you say thank you for this year? What if it's in just the way that you live your night? And the thing is, if you actually do that, if you live New Year's Eve 2025 like it's one for the books, not because it was perfect, just because you decided you were going to remember this one. When you wake up on January 1st, 2026, there'll be a different kind of energy in your heart.

What I really believe is the easiest thing to do is not to live in promise of tomorrow, but to live in honor of yesterday. What I mean by that is it's so easy, as we talked about yesterday, to say, "Tomorrow I'll do this. Tomorrow I'll do that." But what's actually the most effortless is to say, "Gosh, yesterday was such a good day. Let me see if I can keep that going." You know, like that feeling if you work really, you go to the gym in the morning, you work out really hard, and then someone offers you something not really good to eat for lunch. You're like, "You know what? I've just been to the gym, so I'm not going to do that. Like, I just did something good for me, so doing something good for me again feels easier. Whereas, if you didn't go to the gym and you're just basing yourself on the future and someone gives you something not so good for you for lunch, you say, "Oh, perfect. I'll have that today cuz I'm starting the gym tomorrow." If you anchor in today and your identity starts really solidifying, everything that comes next is easier in honor of who you've become. When you say, you know, I had such an incredible night last night. I'm not going to let, you know, whatever fighting or screaming is happening on January 1st bug me. Like, who cares? I'm just happy for young voices in the house. You know, if you get into a little with your sister or your mom, you just say, "They'll be there'll there'll be a million memories available from today. Is this really the one I'm going to anchor? No, let it go. Yesterday was such a good night. It's not how I'm going to live today." And then when you do that day after day, eventually there is this feeling of like, I've been I've had such a good January. I've had such a good February. I've been doing so well. I've been feeling so good. I'm not going to let this affect me. It's a lot easier to live in honor of a yesterday that you nailed and to live in a promise of tomorrow that you will nail because you can keep pushing back tomorrow. So, it's not actually an anchor. It's a concept. But who you were, that's an anchor. How you behaved, what you felt, what you lived. That's an anchor. You know, you have a super beautiful romantic night the night before. The next day, you might be a little more flirty. You might be a little more light-hearted. You might take things a little more light because yesterday was so great. And so, the best way to have an extraordinary beginning is to have an extraordinary ending. It's the most intentional endings that make the most beautiful beginnings because it's all connected like by a thread. You can see where the line is on the thread, but the thread doesn't cut. We're just going to move into the next year. It's just going to move and then move. You get to continue into next year.

And this is the thing. It's like we have all these intentions. This is why typical resolutions don't really work is because we have all these intentions, but nothing actually changes. It only takes a couple of days before it feels like just normal again. Out of curiosity, do you know when the date is that people usually give up on their New Year's resolution? So, let's say they write them on New Year's Eve. How long until they've given up on on the their biggest resolutions? Write for me in the comment section what you think is the answer to that. And I've been booted off the internet again. Okay, let's see if I can put myself on this one. You can take a second to answer in the meantime. Gonna reboot my device so I can read your comments because I want to know what do you think if people give their resolutions on December 31st. So, they're like, I'm not going to eat any bad stuff for me or I'm not I'm going to watch my my mind and I'm going to be positive or I'm not going to fight with anybody this year or I'm not going to gossip or I'm going to watch my whatever it is. If they make that resolution on December 31st, what is the typical day in the world that people have given up? That they've already said, "I will failed." Okay, my phone's coming back on. I'm telling you, this finish line for me has been awesome. Challenging and then nailing it and challenge and then nailing it and cha challenge and then nailing it. It's been quite quite fabulous. Okay, let's see if we can get me back on here. Okay, that All right, let's see what we see here. January 21st, 2 weeks. January 15th. January 21st, 2 weeks. So I read last year or the year before that the number one answer was January 2nd. Do you realize like the first of January they slip already and they give up by January 2nd? That's not very good. So, let's hope that two weeks. Let's hope at least two weeks, but like January 2nd. So, it's kind of hilarious when you think about it. It's like I'm changing my life. Nah, maybe not. Maybe next year. It's January 2nd. I give up. I know. I know. It's so bad. So, even if it were two weeks, it would also be terrible if we're going to be very honest. Like, I'm going to change my life. New beginning. Two weeks in, I quit. I would also suck. But January 2nd is kind of next level for the fragility of human existence.

So all this to say, you are so far ahead of the game just contemplating these things and we tend to get mad at ourselves for what we can what we've done in a year. We'll be like, "Oh, I had I had all these big plans in a year." But I want to tell you this other piece that I believe is very important for me. It hasn't been about how much I can get done in a year. It's been about how much I'm going to get done in my life. This has been the biggest stretch ever since I I created AlphaFem. So, how AlphaFem happened is first of all, my fiancé Kevin was not my fiancé at the time. He was a um leader wherever we went, even before we were coaches. Like he just there was just an energy about him and I would watch him do things. He would open the door for people. He would do things in a way that people would just follow his lead. And I said to him, if you were ever to have a brand, I think your brand would be like the effortless alpha male. Cuz I said, I feel like you never try to be you're not ever trying to tell people you're in charge and everyone picks you. It just kind of happens. They're like, where we going, Kevin? Follow Kevin. Oh, do you mind Kevin? What do you think, Kevin? Like he always ended up being a leader and he was like, "Oh, I like that." The effortless alpha male. And so eventually he created this community for men and it wasn't anything paid or anything. It was just a space for for men to come and lead their lives. And it was called the Effortless Alpha Facebook group. And I really liked that for him. I thought it really suited him, like the Effortless Alpha male, the Effortless Alpha. And he was really helping men like not need to assert their dominance, but rather lead because people want to follow. Like I want I would like you to lead us. Can you drive? Can you take us? What do you think? And so he did really great things with that brand. And at this point I I'm just Melanie Layer. I don't have I'm the invisible coach. I'm Melanie Layer. I don't really have a brand. The one thing I'm kind of toying with, I had this brand called the Boss Vibe. And the Boss Vibe was this energy of understanding that like masculine and feminine energetics make you the boss. So masculine energy makes you bossy. Feminine energy makes it that you can manifest things, but when you put the manifestor and the boss together, you get the boss vibe. And so I I liked that, but it wasn't it. I knew it wasn't. And so I was at a client's retreat. She'd hosted this beautiful retreat and I was helping co-facilitate it and there was this one night where I was answering Q&A and someone said, "What is the female version of effortless alpha?" And without thinking, without anything, just it just came out of my mouth. I said, "AlphaFem." And I got chills in my toes. I still remember my toes started my toes had chills like my toe to toes were were glittering. I took the biggest breath and I was like, and I said it again, AlphaFem. And I felt it like, oh my gosh, this was it. This was it. It was it. I had already had something going about like Fem. I wanted something with Fem. I had never thought of putting AlphaFem together. I had this like logo going in my brain. All of a sudden it all came together with the A. It was a triangle. It was AlphaFem. The whole thing came together. The logo got finished. Everything got done. Within a few days I had my brand. And I remember thinking to myself, this is so big that I don't even know if I'm big enough to lead it. Like something Fem I was toying with something Fem. Like I knew there was because I'm French Canadian, so having Fem was like a French part of my lineage, my my heritage. Like I wanted to have something in French. But AlphaFem and I looked it up and it didn't exist and I was just like, "Oh my gosh, this is it." But I'm like, "Am I even cool enough? Like, am I even powerful enough to lead something called AlphaFem?" And I had the feeling I'm going to need to grow into this identity. It's going it's going to lead me like I will step into AlphaFem. It wasn't like, "Can I become can I make tons of money with this brand this year?" That was not that was not the energy. The energy was can I lead leaders? Can I become the one? Can I become the one that leads AlphaFem? And that became the driving force for me. Not how much can I get done this year, but can I eventually become AlphaFem? And so as the years passed, they didn't really feel like measurement sticks. Did I do it this year? No. No. How about this year? Am I good enough this year? No. How about this year? Instead, they became building blocks. It was as though every year built a part of me that elevated me into this vision. And I still feel like I'm on that climb. At this point, I'm still the best kept secret. I still don't even have an actual website. I have sales pages for every program that I have that I offer links for, but like you can't go anywhere and find all my programs. You can't like I'm still very underground because my brand is very like if you know, you know. I'm not trying to be famous. I want to be known. I don't know if you can feel the difference about that. Like what I really am holding the frequency of is being able to help as many people as possible, serve as many people as possible, know as many as people as possible without the dynamics of who I am ever flipping into me not being real anymore. Cuz the fact is I've been doing live streams like this ever since the beginning. Ever since 2000, ever since the beginning of AlphaFem, even before. And so I'm the same person, but all of a sudden because so many people know me, it's like all of a sudden it's like untouchable or something. But like I don't want that. So I've literally kept it small, but it's bursting from the inside out. Like I want only people to share so that their people that are the same kind of like-minded people find it. I'm not really in I've not really been interested in the whole world knowing who I am if the if it can't serve the whole world. I'm only interested in the whole world knowing who I am if it's going to actually serve the whole world. So, I would rather have the people who know who I am or people who can be served by who I am and what I do. People who are able to sit with me and recognize the person, not just the alpha, but like the person who built AlphaFem. And so, there's still so much for me to do. There will be the moment where I create a website and all my stuff is hosted on there. That will change my life. I built a hundred million dollar company without a website. I don't have a book. I don't have a viral YouTube channel. I don't have like I lit I don't run ads. Like I don't I really don't do the things that you would do at this to get here. So all those things are yet to come. Maybe one day I'll have to grow into that and hold the same frequency. I'm going have to figure out how to do that. There's so many things, but I've got to become the one. Who? The one. The one. The one. And that's always been the thing for me. What am I adding to the context of the one that I am? I didn't just run. I didn't say, "Okay, I want to be I want to be AlphaFem. I need a website. I need a viral YouTube channel. I need this. I need that. I need this. I need that." Like, I didn't go with what I needed and tried to take it. I went from the inside. Like, can I own that title a little bit more? Can I even own my name just a little bit more? Can I can I feel the feeling just a little bit more? Can I own me? Can I be present? Can I behave the way I want to behave? Can I own my power, my energy, my strength, my direction? Can I be a leader even when circumstances are hard? Can I look at the year ahead, look at what I would like to do, make a solid plan, and then really do my best, like actually my best, and then look what worked, what didn't work, what do I want to do differently, readjust, go into another year, not hit or miss one year, building blocks, building blocks, building blocks. I'm still in a building block. 2026 for me, oh my gosh, I never expected 2025 to be what it what it was. 2025 was better than I ever could have possibly imagined. Who I became, what I learned in 2025, the relationships I've built with my my people, my clients, the relationships I've built, the ideas I got for my programs, the the channel, the the like divine downloads that were like this. And I was like like the studying, the thinking, the the contemplating, the conversations, the work, the rest, the relaxation, the the leadership, every single thing this year just stretched me in the most huge ways. But I am so ready for 2026. Like, bring it. Bring it. Imagine I imagine I write a book this year. Imagine Imagine I get a website this year. Like, this could all happen this year. I don't know when it's going to happen, but I know it has to happen at some point. What if it's this year? But I don't put pressure on the goal. I hold the pressure of the vision and I know when the timing is right because I'm the one. I'm the one that's going to write a book. I'm the one who's

going to have the most beautiful website that makes it easy to like shop everything. I, I'm the one that's eventually going to master the line between the screen and reality. I'm the one. I'm the one. I'm the one.

So, how am I going to do it? That's a fun question, but when I think it's going to define me and I need to figure it out, I need to figure out this year. It's like, okay, but how? How? How? How? How? Get out of my magic and into my cupboard. I want us to be out of the cupboard fully into the year. Like, let's go find out what could happen in a freaking year. What could happen in a year for me, for you, for us?

Now, I know I'm going to do extraordinary things. I don't know all the things because there's times I've had things I've wanted to do in January and come March I'm like, I've pivoted. That's not exactly what I want. I would rather have that. Sometimes things change, but I know I'm going to do huge things, beautiful things. I know there's going to be the most beautiful memories that I know. I know I'm going to trust myself and I'm going to allow myself to pivot and change and grow and lead.

I know that there's people in my life that are here right now that I'm going to become so much closer to in 2026. And I know that there's people I don't even know yet that I'm going to get close to in 2026. That's really exciting. I know that there are success stories that are going to continue to compound. My clients are going to keep blowing my mind in 2026. And I know that I've got new success stories that I don't even know who they are yet that are going to blow my mind in 2026. I know, I know all of that, but I don't know who. I don't know how. I don't know when. And if it didn't happen in 2026, but everything was done correctly, that it would be a question of momentum before it happened in 2027.

I'm setting the table not just for 2026, but for every year. Building blocks. Building blocks. Because what I would really love is to get to the end of my life and to know that I built the whole thing. I didn't just build as long as it looked like I'd build it on time. I didn't just build as long as it looked like it was worth building. I didn't just build it as long as it looked like it was going to work. I built every year with the new life that I had. Every year, what it looked like, what it was, what I had to deal with, what I had to face, what the cards were that I was given. And then every year I reshuffled the deck and I started again. And every year I made a masterpiece and I build the life, whatever it is. Like right now, I'm the making of the woman I'll look back on when I'm 90. And that's a cool feeling to think. This is like I'm the young woman I was. Like I love thinking about things like that.

On New Year's Eve 2025, you're the young woman that you were. When you think back at your youth or when you're 90 years old, you think back at the 50, 60 year old version of you and you're like, gosh, I was so young. When you think back at the 30, 40 year old version of you, you're like, gosh, I was so young. Like that's who you are tonight. How do you want to live? And not to try to fix something, to like create it. All because there's something wrong, because there's endless possibility. Because the sky isn't even the limit. It's us against the limit. Because if there's a limit, it's us. It's the only one. The limit of what we believe we can do. The limit of what we can believe we can have. And most of those limits are created based on the past and we honor those. It's a lot easier to live in honor of the past. Even when your past is a limit, you say, you know what, I'm not even going to try that because last time I did, I hurt myself. That's living in honor of the past. Saying, you know what, I'm going to have the best New Year's Eve ever because that call just changed my life. That's an honor of the past. It just depends what past you honor.

So, as you're listening to this, and again, if you feel like as you're listening to this, someone in the world needs to hear this. You're like, gosh, I just wish everyone could hear something like this. This is usually a paid program I do at the end of the year for people to really anchor in the finish line, and I decided to do it for free. It's going to be on my page until January 3rd and then it's going to disappear. So, if you feel like this is valuable and there's people in the world that could change something in their family lives, their marriages, their health, just by hearing these conversations, please share and let them know when you're sharing. Like, this is going to expire publicly for free. It's a paid program that's being released for free temporarily until January 3rd, then it disappears. Watch it before it goes away. It's worth it. Like, these are the moments.

And so there are some really spectacular New Year's Eve moments in my life, but I also have certain New Year's Eve where I thought I had just kind of missed it. Like I was too busy and I didn't get the chance to do everything I wanted to do and I just kind of it was just going to be an easy one. And I made the decision that it was going to just be an easy one the day of or the day before. I never reconsidered how powerful it could have been at the finish line if I just decided to make it matter. You could do anything at the finish line. You could start writing a book at the finish line. You could write a forgiveness letter or have a conversation that changes your life or make a memory that you never forget. Like the opportunities for you are endless if you decide that that's the truth.

So what I most want for this finish line is to affect not just this one, but all the finish lines. How you go through January, how you go through February, how you go through March, how you go through April, how you go through May, how you go through June, how you go through July, and how you go through August, and how you go through September, and how you go through October, and how you go through November, and then how you go through December and the finish line. We have multiple opportunities to go through the finish line all year. The more grounded we are, the more we can create. The more we're just kind of thinking we'll start tomorrow, the faster time passes by.

When you think of being a little kid, I think of how much space there was between Halloween and Christmas. Like there was a life between Halloween and Christmas, but I went through the finish line of Halloween and then I started planning and then I went through the finish line of Christmas and then I went through the finish line of Valentine's Day. Then I went through the finish line of Easter and then I went through the finish line. There was always something to look forward to and I always was present through the finish line. And so I found a way to like build a life this way in my resolution revolution program. And that's a big piece of it is like showing you how to intentionally live every month. And I'm so excited for the one that we're doing in 2026 because it really is like we start the year in creation mode.

And that I'm going to tell you like every year I always pick a word that feels like the word of the year. And I have had this word come up now for weeks. Every time I think about it, I'm like, "No, that can't be the word." But I there's no other word and I keep saying it. So this is the word for 2026. It's the year of creation for me. So I have a big context for 2026. One year it was love. One year was forgiveness. This year is the year of creation. And I declare that. So the first original context, the big one for my year is like creation. So creating January and you can borrow mine if you want. Creating January, creating February, creating March, not just letting life happen, but actually creating it. Starting the year and saying, I want to create these memories, these moments. I want to create a winter. I want to create a spring. I want to create a summer and a fall. I want to create family moments, romantic moments, funny moments. I want to create beautiful moments, majestic moments, meaningful moments. I want to have peaceful moments, calm moments, completely unplugged moments, nature moments. I want to have art moments and like I know, I know I want to create all of these things. And I am going to be aware and I'm going to be in creation. I'm going to create new programs. I'm going to create new relationships. I'm going to create new. It's basically be a God zone year. I love that it's a creation in the God zone kind of year. And not because this year wasn't good. It's just the context of next year as a building block on top of last year. Everything I am, everything I've done plus this. And when I look at my year, it won't be like, "Okay, now let me make sure I don't mess this one up." When I look at this year, it's going to be like, "Okay, what do I want to create?" And I'm going to lead us, whoever decides to do resolution with resolution revolution with me, through a process of looking at every part of our lives in this like creation energy and saying, "Let's do this." Okay, let's create. What do we want in our relationships? What do we want in our businesses? What do we want in our wealth? What do we want in our health? What do we want? And I'm going to bring you through some processes that are so amazing and so powerful to do at the beginning of a year. And it's going to put you in the God zone for the beginning of this year. Like creation is on the agenda.

And what I love about my resolution revolution program is that it costs $2,222. It's a 10 module program. It's a big experience. You have it all year. So, you're able to look back at what you've said and what you've done all year. But when we're done the program, I give you a $2,220 credit. So, whatever you've spent, you get to have it back, that credit, and I'm going to talk to you about other programs I have, and based on what you've created in your goals and all of your visions, you're going to get to decide like, this is one I want to learn more about, and you'll be able to reinvest that amount into another program. So, you have to pay to be a part of the experience, but then you're going to get to decide which part of you you want to be a part of. So, it's like a double whammy. You get to come in and then expand into the next thing that you want to do. And you could decide to go into the movement on the back end of that or you could use the $2,222 towards the alpha fem experience and move into that with me. Like there's so many possibilities. There's so many things that can be done and I've got some incredible stuff coming this year and I'd love to be a part of your journey and I'd love to be a part of your story and I'd love to be a part of your 2026 and I hope in being part of this finish line you felt the same feelings with me that you want to be a part of my 2026 and part of what I'm putting together. So this would be an amazing place to start.

And the other thing that's going to come in January, the end of January is I am the one. And this is such an incredible thing because this I am the one mantra. I wonder if I could actually find my I am the one and alpha fem, if you're able to just put the link for resolution revolution so people can have it. I am the one. I wrote this in 2015. I am the one. I am the one who meets myself at the level I want the world to meet me. I am the one who creates my life. I am the one who chooses how I show up in this world. I am the one who can use my words to heal or to harm. I am the one who chooses to forgive or leave. I am the one who steps up or gives up. I am the one who co-creates peace or chaos. I am the one who determines my financial future. I am the one who makes or breaks my patterns. I am the one who steps up or steps aside. I am the one who chooses responsibility or blame. I am the one who builds or destroys. I am the one who grows or doesn't. I am the one who believes in what's possible or recreates the past. I am the one who loves or hates. I am the one who leads myself or leaves myself behind. I am the one who laughs or cries. I am the one who lives or dies. I am the one.

This is the most powerful potent energy to couple with resolution revolution because we're going to build the year and then we'll go lead it. This I am the one has been built and completely rebuilt because 2025, if it's done one thing for me, is make me understand I am the one on a whole other level and it's allowed me to touch things and to learn things and to do things that I never thought I could possibly do and so I am the one even if you took the first I am the one that I did in 2022, this is entirely different. Has nothing to do with it. It's the same potent title and the branding is an homage to it, but it is a whole other level. And so, right now, it's on pre-sale or early bird. It's $555. It's going to go up on January 5th at 5:00 p.m. from $5.55 to $11.11. So, if you want to do I am the one with me, this is going to be another amazing thing to do. And the cool thing until January 5th at 5:00 p.m., you buy resolution revolution for $2,222 and I will give you I am the one. So, we'll get to do both. We'll have the greatest kickoff of 2026 the world has ever seen.

I have so much energy in my body moving into this next new year. Not because I just have hope and not just because the future is bright, but because I'm building from something exquisite. The best time to do something extraordinary is on the back end of a masterpiece. So, I want to help you build 2026 into the masterpiece that it is so that '27 is built on the back end of that masterpiece and '28 is built on the back end of that masterpiece. And we're building building blocks because it's who we are. Because we are the one.

And so, how you get to anchor this in for yourself is like today is the last day of 2025. Live the way you want to live in 2026. Like create the bridge. Don't say, "I'll start tomorrow." Say, "I'm creating the bridge between 2025 and 2026 because this is the way that I'm leading 2026. This is the way I'm living in 2026. This is how I'm facing myself in 2026. This is the responsibility I'm taking in 2026. This is how I'm showing up for myself in 2026. These are the moves I'm making in 2026. This is how I love in 2026." I'm going to start tonight. I'm going to dance like it's 2026. I'm going to love like it's 2026. If 2026 is meant to be so fantastic, then tonight I'm going to party like it's 2026. I'm going to move like it's 2026. I'm going to act like it's 2026. If it really is going to be the year, then let's start now and let's carry that energy through the finish line.

So, this is our finish line masterpiece. I want to leave you with a final visualization, just a thought to carry you through this evening. So, if you can just relax your body, and I love to do these where you can keep your eyes open or you can have your eyes closed because when this is happening, it's probably going to happen in real time while your eyes are open. It'll happen in the middle of your living room. It'll happen in real time. I just want you to experience this. Just breathe. Feel your body. Wiggle your toes. Wiggle your butt. Wiggle your fingers. Be in your body. And I just want you to bring up into your awareness the memory of the feeling when someone in the house says or when you realize, oh, the countdown. It's time. It's time. Five. Like 10, nine. There's that energy. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I want to anchor into the frequency of those numbers, the greatest parts of you of 2025. The most loving parts of you that have been culminating all of your life up until 2025. The bravest parts of you that have been culminating since 2025. All the buildup of who you are compounding when those numbers are called tonight and pulling you into 2026. Not because your future is there, but because you built it and you're carrying it with you. This is a compound effect. There is nothing waiting for you there that you are not carrying across the bridge.

So I want you either with your eyes open or your eyes closed, you can put your hands on your chest, on your belly, wherever it feels like the energy is in your body. I just want you to feel this energy. 10. All the moments that you stepped up when you were courageous, when you were bold, every year, including this year and into 2026. Nine. All the people you have loved with all of your heart, whether they could love you back or love you right, the amount of love that you've had in your life, all of your life, all the way through 2025, carrying into 2026. Eight. All of the laughter that you have laughed from being a little kid with giggles all the way to like crying with an inside joke all through your life, all through 2025 into 2026. Seven. All of the pleasure you have experienced, the moments of bliss, the moments that took your breath away, the moments you wish could last forever, all of those of all of your life and all of 2025 compounded moving in with you into 2026. All of the rest, all of the sleep, all of the peace, the restoration, the well-being, all that your body has done to keep you well and alive all of your life, compounded all throughout your life, compounded all through 2026 or all through 2025 into 2026. Five. All the romance, all the butterflies, all the feelings you've ever felt in your life of feeling like that feels good. Like all those excited love moments, romance, butterflies, excitement, all of that compounded all throughout your life, all through 2025, carry it into 2026. Four. All the hope. Times where there was no evidence. You did not know how things were going to work out, but you somehow stayed connected to the God zone and miracles happened and you said, "I don't know how that happened, but thank God, mother nature, the universe. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." The times you had hope, the times you had faith, compounded all through your life, compounded into 2025, carrying with you into 2026. Three. All of the places you have seen, the beauty you have seen, the new things your eyes have seen, new colors you've never noticed before, smiles, beauty, joy, everything that captures your eye that makes you say, "Wow." that makes you marvel at being alive. All the things that make you grateful to be alive compounded all throughout the rest of your life through 2025 into 2026. Two. The feeling of elation, excitement, knowing that the best is yet to come. The feeling that something amazing is about to happen. Like being a little kid on Christmas Eve, like being excited because a friend is coming over or because something great is about to happen or your favorite song is starting on the radio. That genuine feeling of I know something great is about to happen compounded all throughout your life compounded all through 2025 carried into 2026. One. Feeling of surrender, of knowing that there's nothing for you to do, that it's all taken care of. From inception, from being in the womb and being fed without ever having to worry about it to then being fed as a newborn/little baby, receiving from wherever it came because you couldn't cook yourself a sandwich or anything, make yourself a sandwich or anything. It all came from somewhere. Anytime you've ever been supported or cared for where you could be in surrender and trust and faith and things came, that feeling of faith, that feeling that what you need is coming, all the times you've ever felt that compounded all throughout your life, compounded all the way through 2025, carried into 2026. Happy New Year.

As these numbers countdown tonight deep in your body, if you can just feel a little whisper of the countdown we just had. Everything you've ever been, all the best of you compounded all throughout your life, all throughout 2025, carried into 2026. You're not just starting new. You're restarting fresh with a history of brilliance, of strength, of courage, of faith, of beauty, of love, of forgiveness. There's so much power in you already. You are not starting from nothing. You are starting on top of the building blocks you have built. And this year gets to be a freaking masterpiece because you've been building it that way your entire life. Doesn't matter where you ended 2025. Doesn't matter where you ended 2024. What matters is the life we build. And we're in the middle of doing that. Nothing is over. And there is no starting over. Every year, they're starting fresh with everything we've built. Like you start a fresh new day after a good night's sleep. This is what we're moving into. Everything you've ever been, everything you've ever done, everything you have ever held, laughed, smiled about, loved, felt, all of that amplified for a fresh January. I hope you can feel all of your existence when the clock strikes 12 for you. That you don't just bank on maybe there's a great version of you in the future, but rather that you have the self-trust to know that if you could get yourself this far, you can take yourself anywhere. And 2026 just gets to be another incredible year. Maybe the best you've ever had. Not because the others weren't good enough, just because you've learned from what was and you're ready for what is.

So, this ends the finish line program. I'm going to be moving into the movement. For those of you who are coming in with the for the finale with me. If you would like to join the movement, I'll make sure the alpha 17 team puts the link there. When the replay of this is available, it will be sent to you. Just so you know, the team will no longer be available in Messenger, inbox, or anything like that. After the call on the movement, they'll be resuming on January 3rd. So, if you have any questions or you need to be using credits to purchase things, that's going to go into the new year. Anytime between now and midnight that you donate to Ally Change the Star Summit that yesterday, I made a post and I don't know what happened. It was like shadowbanned or something. It was basically invisible. So, I'm going to make another post about that today. If you have a donation, make sure you put a screenshot of it in there so that we can raise the vibes so that we can continue to compound the magic. Let's see if we can rewrite the stars for those children next year. Like everything we're doing matters. Everything. And how we close the year dictates how the table is set for the new one. So, let's set the table in the most magnificent way. Dance like it's 2026. Love like it's 2026. Live like it's 2026 now. I hope I get to see so many of you in the new year. And I hope I get to help you create the most extraordinary life ahead. But either way, I'm grateful that you were here. So thankful for this time that we spent together. And I look forward to the beautiful year ahead. Sending you so much love. Thank you for everything. You have until January 3rd to catch up on this. I'm going to pull my last draw of the day. Let's not forget our last draw of the day and then that'll complete. So, Alpham team, do we have our final winner for today? So, this person will be the winner of a $555 in Alphab plus a beautiful notebook. And on January 3rd, I'm going to draw three more. So, if you want to participate, if you do not get selected for this draw, just remember you share this live stream, you share the animation, you take little video clips of this and you share with me your highlight of what you've thought about during this 3-day event. Share if you share, tag me on Instagram, Melanie Layer, or Alpha Fem, and we'll go from there. Okay. So, our winner, our winner, our winner. Thank you for this incredible experience. So much transformation and clarity has occurred within me. I'm so happy. Heather, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. Did you guys see it? Maybe I'm only seeing half the comments.
