Are You Celebrating Like You Mean It? (Because You Should Be)

By Tricia Scott.

Last week, in the world of football, my hometown won a cup final for the first time in 70 YEARS and let me tell you, Newcastle United fans lost. their. minds.

Watching from the comfort of my sofa (under my electric blanket, obvs) as the final whistle blew, the cameras panned to the roaring crowd, then to the fan zones bursting with elation. Thousands upon thousands of people losing themselves in sheer, unfiltered joy.

Arms in the air. Singing. Cheering. Laughter and ugly-cry tears all at once.

As I took it all in, a thought hit me like a stadium chant at full volume:

When was the last time I felt like that? 

When was the last time I let go, felt pure joyful abandon, and celebrated something like my soul was on fire?

What about you?

Look, I see wins all the time; I make a point of celebrating them, finding joy in the day-to-day, being grateful, and all that good stuff. But watching that sea of black and white go absolutely feral with happiness made me wonder, am I going big enough?

And are you?

I'm not saying we should all be tearing off our shirts and running through the office screaming (but hey, I'm not not saying it either). But what if we did celebrate a little louder? What if we made the wins feel as epic as the work that went into them?

This is exactly why I cannot wait to launch our new community space later this year because nothing compares to celebrating with people who really get it. The ones who understand the weeks, months, and years of hustle, grit, and fire that go into making something happen.

💥 That moment of BIG YES energy - that's what we need more of because that energy? It's a force. A tidal wave of passion, power, and pure joy.

And we should be riding it every chance we get.

So tell me—what's your next BIG YES moment? What are we celebrating next? Because I want to hear about it. And more than that, I want to see you own it.

Let's make BIG the new normal. I believe in you (always).
