Noah Kahan is a singer-songwriter from Vermont with radio-played hits like Stick Season, Forever, and Northern Attitude. I've loved his music for a while. My daughter and I kept Forever on replay for a while earlier this year. I was excited about the chance to get a "behind the scenes" look at this emotional lyricist and how his creativity works.

I stumbled upon this information this past week as I was watching a random YouTube video with the host explaining the latest fee changes from IngramSpark. I'm publishing my memoir this summer squeal so this information was important to me. I kept listening on and he shared some very interesting and inspiring results from this recent survey. And I just knew I wanted to pass them on to you.

What might happen if you let the Universe pick your next read, if you left it up to chance instead of your own interpretation of the story you're ready to hear? I wondered this for myself as I took a winter afternoon walk.

I came home feeling inspired and ready to put this new idea into action, leaning into "divine timing" for 2026.

It's really simple. I sit down with the journals from the year and reread all my entries. I take notes on key elements as I read and walk away with deep insights. Hidden patterns jump off the page. I get a bigger picture of the path I'm on. I give myself the chance to make different choices moving forward. It's powerful stuff!
