Professionally, Iโ€™m planning to dive deeper into the EX topics this year and go for a Qualtrics certification in this field.

And on a more personal note: thereโ€™s been a mandolin hanging on my wall for years that Iโ€™ve always wanted to learn to play. So 2026 is the year Iโ€™m actually going to start practicing regularly.

Sounds like great goals. Happy learning.

Like many personal goals, Iโ€™d love to say that Iโ€™m fully committed to becoming a regular at the gym. But more realistically, my main goal for this year is to build a stronger reading habit. Iโ€™ve set myself a goal of reading 15 books in 2026, and Iโ€™m excited to learn, explore new perspectives, and make consistent time for learning through reading.

OMG โ€” do you accept virtual applications from Canada? ๐Ÿ˜‚
Iโ€™d be more than happy to share my literary favorites at the end of the year!

That said, if I may already sneak one recommendation in: my 2025 favorite was Project Hail Mary โ€” and I highly recommend the audiobook version. I canโ€™t explain why without spoilers, but trust meโ€ฆ it makes all the difference!!ย ๐Ÿš€๐ŸŽง๐Ÿ“š

Great recommendation! That audiobook was one of my Audible highlights when I stumbled upon it a few years back.

Right now I have two Iโ€™m working through: Contagious: Why Thingsย Catch On by Jonah Berger and Unrealistic Hospitality by Will Guidara. I just started working through both but Iโ€™m also open to other ideas. Iโ€™ve never complained about having a long list of books to read.

For scheduling, I typically see more availability on the latterย partย of my week on Thursday and Fridays.ย
