The Vision Email: In 2026, I Want Us To...

Because your words deserve a future — not just a plan.
Write less. Connect more. Convert better.

🌅 Let’s Start With This:

Close your eyes for a sec.
Imagine it’s December 2026.
You're looking back at the year you just lived.

And you feel… clear.
Not because you did everything.
But because what you did felt true.

That’s the vision I want for both of us this year.

No more inbox shame.
No more “I should’ve sent something last week.”
No more shouting into the void.

In 2026, I want us to build something different.
Something better.
Something sustainable.

Let’s talk about what that looks like.

🌀 Email Is Changing. And That’s a Good Thing.

The old way?
It was all urgency and automation.
Funnels and FOMO.
Churn out more. Send faster. Sell louder.

And it worked… until it didn’t.

Now?

Your audience wants honesty, not hype.
They want resonance, not noise.
They want rhythm, not randomness.

That’s why we’re not just sending emails in 2026.

We’re creating sustainable conversation.
Soulful offers.
Steady visibility.
Quiet consistency.

Sound good? Let’s set the vision.

💌 In 2026, I Want Us To…

1. 🧘‍♀️ Write From Spaciousness, Not Stress

You know what kills creativity? Panic.
Last-minute subject lines.
White-knuckling your way through newsletters because “I should…”

No more.

Instead, we write in rhythms that respect our energy.

We protect 90-minute writing windows like sacred CEO time.
We batch what we can — and let the rest breathe.
We write ahead, so we’re never behind.

In 2026, we leave urgency behind.

2. 🧠 Teach Less, Guide More

Your audience isn’t starving for more information.
They’re starving for clarity.
Context.
Leadership.

This year, your emails don’t have to be masterclasses.
They just have to be useful.

We lead with frameworks, stories, and invitations.
We trust that when we speak with soul, people listen.
We stop proving, and start connecting.

Less teaching. More guiding.

3. 🛠️ Have Systems That Support Us (Not the Other Way Around)

We’re done duct-taping our strategy together.
Done writing on empty.
Done sending “just to stay consistent.”

In 2026, we build rhythms that are:

·       ️ Repeatable (thank you, templates)

·       🧘‍♀️ Spacious (hello, batching buffer)

·       🤝 Supported (even 2 hours/month of help is huge)

We don’t need more tools.
We need fewer friction points.

4. 💰 Sell with Steady, Soulful Confidence

You don’t have to yell to sell.
You don’t need 27 emails to close one cart.

You just need:

·       A list that trusts you

·       Offers that help

·       Emails that feel like you

In 2026, we stop disappearing between launches.
We nurture even when we’re not selling.
And when we do sell? It feels like a natural next step — not a hard pitch.

5. 🔁 Repeat What Works (and Let Go of the Rest)

Forget shiny tactics.
Forget comparing your funnel to someone else's.

Instead:

We double down on what already works.

The emails that get replies
The offers that convert without pressure
The stories that always resonate

This year, we track it.
Notice it.
And then? We repeat it.

That’s not boring — that’s brilliant.

🧭 How We Get There: Tiny, Consistent Rhythm

Big leaps are sexy.
But rhythm is what scales.

So in case you need a reminder — here’s your rhythm-friendly 2026 plan:

·       🗓️ Monthly content map (with space to play)

·       ️ Two emails batched every 2 weeks

·       💌 Templates on standby (Connection / Value / Offer / Recap)

·       🔄 Quarterly review days

·       🧘‍♀️ Built-in buffer weeks (no guilt allowed)

And when it falls apart? (Because life.)
We return. Gently. Quickly. Without shame.

️ Vision Journal Prompt

Light a candle. Play your cozy playlist.
Write this out:

“By December 2026, I want my email practice to feel like ________.
Because I want my audience to feel __________ when they read my words.”

Let that guide your planning, your offers, and your voice all year long.

🎁 Bonus: Your 2026 Email Mantra

Choose one (or write your own):

·       “I email with rhythm, not rush.”

·       “I write with honesty, not hype.”

·       “I build trust every week — one subject line at a time.”

·       “My voice matters. My people are listening.”

·       “Simplicity sells. Story converts. Rhythm sustains.”

Tape it to your screen. Whisper it before you batch.

That’s your compass.

With rhythm,
—Eli
