Latest / Alignment With Jenn / (#25) Your Full Guide to a DRAMATIC 2026 Glow Up
Transcript
- 0:00Hello and welcome to this episode of Receive.
- 0:03I am your host, Jen Dizzy. I am a premier transformation
- 0:08coach for women and I help women from all over the world manifest
- 0:11the lives of their dreams. And today I am excited to share
- 0:16with you about the 2026 Glow Up. So this idea came to me at the
- 0:22beginning of November. So about 10 days ago when I
- 0:25decided that I wanted to start 2026 now, I wanted to start at
- 0:29the beginning of November and make 2026 A 14 month year.
- 0:33I love the energy of New Year's. I love the excitement.
- 0:37I love that everybody is focused on their growth.
- 0:39They're focused on their goals, they're focused on becoming
- 0:41more. There's such a powerful,
- 0:43beautiful momentum to it. And I wanted to tap into that
- 0:46early. And so I decided to create this
- 0:48Glow up plan and start it now so that way by the time New Year's
- 0:52rolls around, I feel like I'm ahead.
- 0:54I feel like I have a ton of time throughout 2026.
- 0:56The year goes by more slowly and so, yeah, so that's what I want
- 1:01to share with you today is the different areas of life and what
- 1:05we can do in those areas of life to really feel our absolute
- 1:08best. I think it is so exciting to
- 1:10always be going after that next level, becoming your best self,
- 1:14overflowing into the expansiveness of all that you
- 1:17can be. And so let's go through and
- 1:20let's look at these different areas and I'll share with you
- 1:22the different ways that I'm approaching at the different
- 1:24things that I'm doing. And then you can implement
- 1:28whatever you want. You can leave and take whatever
- 1:30you want. But I hope this really helps you
- 1:32to set yourself up to feel really, really good about 2026
- 1:36and really good about manifesting the version of you
- 1:40that you want to be really embodying.
- 1:42That woman who is just owning in every single category of her
- 1:46life, who feels amazing about herself, who feels fully in
- 1:48alignment at all levels and who just knows that she is making
- 1:53incredible progress towards really living the life life that
- 1:57she desires on all levels. So the first thing that I am
- 2:00starting with is I'm starting with looking at the
- 2:02implementation, right? How am I going to maintain and
- 2:06sustain this 2026 glow up for the next 14 months, right?
- 2:10How many to keep myself motivated?
- 2:12How am I going to keep myself on track for it?
- 2:14And so the first thing that I'm going to do, and this is all
- 2:17going to get scheduled into my Google Calendar.
- 2:19I use Google Calendar and then I just use the Notes app on Mac
- 2:23and on the iPhone. And so the first thing is
- 2:25implementation. So every 90 days, so once a
- 2:27quarter, I'm going to schedule quarterly review rituals where
- 2:30it's like, I'm going to get a candle, I'm going to get a new
- 2:33pen, a nice notebook, a little latte or something delicious.
- 2:37And I'm going to reflect on the last 90 days.
- 2:39And I'm going to assess my health, my finances, my
- 2:43aesthetics, my appearance, my relationships, the progress that
- 2:47I've made within my business and really look and see, you know,
- 2:50what could I do better? What could I change?
- 2:52How can I evolve this plan? So really this plan that I've
- 2:55created, yes, it will be ongoing all year.
- 2:58And it will also live and breathe and adjust as the year
- 3:00goes on. And you can do these review
- 3:03rituals more often. You can do them once a month if
- 3:05you want. I chose quarterly because I feel
- 3:08like that's enough time for me to really see changes and to
- 3:11accomplish a lot of the things underneath the headers.
- 3:13So that's really where I'm at. I'll celebrate my wins.
- 3:16I'll re align anything that needs to be real realigned and
- 3:19just really reinvigorate myself on this process of continuously
- 3:24evolving into the more and more expanded version of myself.
- 3:27And then the next thing that I set up was morning and evening
- 3:31routines and rituals. Now I have these in place
- 3:34already, so this isn't going to be too different for me, but I
- 3:37did add a couple new things to it that I'll talk to you about.
- 3:40And you can obviously evolve this to your own life, right?
- 3:44Like if you're a busy mom, you have 3 kids up with you in the
- 3:47morning, your morning routine is going to look different than
- 3:49mine is going to look where I don't have any kids, right?
- 3:52So evolve it for you, evolve it for your own life.
- 3:55So for me, morning routine that I'll have is my goal is to not
- 3:59go on my phone at all until I'm done with walking my dog.
- 4:03That's the last thing I do in my morning routine.
- 4:05I don't want to be on my phone, I want to be connected.
- 4:08I find, and I think research also supports this, that when
- 4:11you wake up in the morning, if you go on your phone
- 4:14immediately, your nervous system is significant less regulated
- 4:17throughout the day than if you just don't go on your phone.
- 4:20And I've tested that on myself and it is very true.
- 4:23I feel so much calmer. I feel so much more at peace.
- 4:26So that's my goal, to not go on my phone to sleep with my phone
- 4:30away from me in the bed. So the first thing I'll do when
- 4:33I wake up is no phone. I will meditate.
- 4:35If you use a guided meditation, maybe putting it on your phone
- 4:38and then very quickly using it, I don't know.
- 4:41You'll have to figure that one out.
- 4:42The second one is I will get up after I meditate and I use my
- 4:46vibration plate and I'll do lymphatic drainage massage on my
- 4:49face. Now I added in the lip vibration
- 4:52plate recently because I feel so much better when I wake up in
- 4:57the morning and I use that vibration plate.
- 4:59It gives me more energy and it really, really helps me to just
- 5:03clear out any of the stagnant energy as well as like the
- 5:06stagnant limp fluid in my body and I truly feel like it makes
- 5:10my skin glow more. It helps me to just look a
- 5:13little bit more slim. It really is an amazing thing
- 5:17and it's so good for your body. The more that we detox, the
- 5:20better Our lymphatic fluid doesn't move on its own.
- 5:23It moves only through US moving it.
- 5:25And so I love the vibration plate.
- 5:27They're pretty inexpensive on Amazon, so that's something you
- 5:30can check out. I also find that it gives me a
- 5:32boost of energy when I do that in the morning.
- 5:34Then I do a facial lymphatic drainage massage.
- 5:37I just use one that I found on YouTube.
- 5:39You can use whatever you want. Then I'll get ready.
- 5:42Sometimes I'll eat breakfast, sometimes I'll wait, and then
- 5:44I'll walk my dog. And when I walk my dog, I don't
- 5:48listen to anything. I connect to the universe, to
- 5:51God and I just basically spend the whole time having a
- 5:54conversation. So it could be 30 minutes, it
- 5:56could be 45 minutes, but I'll just have that conversation and
- 5:59I'll really set my intentions for the day.
- 6:02I'll say I'll ask for anything I need help with.
- 6:05I'll get clarity on anything I need to get clarity on.
- 6:08I'm really just having a two way conversation and just really
- 6:11setting myself up for an amazing day.
- 6:14And what I notice is that those walks give me the best days
- 6:18ever. When I don't go on those walks,
- 6:20I feel so different. I feel like not as clear.
- 6:23I feel like I don't receive as many downloads.
- 6:24I just don't feel as connected throughout the day.
- 6:27I don't feel like I'm as creative.
- 6:28It really is amazing. And the more that I've done
- 6:31them, I start to feel this energy that flows through my
- 6:36body. And I'm really sensitive to
- 6:38energy. So you may feel this, you may
- 6:40not. Over time, you'll probably start
- 6:42to feel it. But I truly just feel myself
- 6:44pulling down energy. And that's what happens when you
- 6:48meditate is you pull down energy typically.
- 6:51Well, yeah, divine energy through your crown chakra and it
- 6:54can flow throughout your body. And that's what I feel like I'm
- 6:57doing on those walks because my whole back heart chakra will
- 7:00just feel really activated and my crown will feel really,
- 7:04really activated. So just something to notice.
- 7:07I would say that's probably the most important part of my
- 7:09morning routines, even more so than meditation.
- 7:12I really love that this whole thing takes me about, I'd say 2
- 7:15hours, maybe an hour and a half depending on how quickly I'm
- 7:19moving. So yeah, that's what I have set
- 7:22up for my morning routine. I love it.
- 7:24It really works well for me. And then usually I'll start
- 7:27working or some days I'll go to a workout class after that.
- 7:31But usually I do my workouts in the evenings.
- 7:33So that's category. One is the morning routine.
- 7:36The second category is aesthetic.
- 7:39So I love to feel good about how I look.
- 7:43I love to feel like I look like my best self.
- 7:46I when we tap into beauty and we're all beautiful in our
- 7:51different ways, every single woman is so beautiful.
- 7:54When you really allow yourself to see your own beauty and
- 7:57actually just get the judgments out of your head, you will be
- 8:00amazed by how beautiful you find yourself to be.
- 8:03And I find I feel significantly better when I put effort into
- 8:08how I look. And this is going to vary to
- 8:11different extents, right? Some women love putting in a ton
- 8:13of effort. Even a little bit of effort is
- 8:15going to go a long way to you feeling really good in your
- 8:18body, to you elevating your confidence, to you connecting to
- 8:23yourself. Beauty and beautifying our
- 8:25vessel is part of the way that we show appreciation for our
- 8:29vessel. One of the qualities of the
- 8:32feminine is the ability to beautify things.
- 8:35And so for you, beautification could be yoga pants and a really
- 8:39cute little top or a cute little sweater, right?
- 8:42For someone else, it could be a dress.
- 8:44I love wearing dresses. They make me feel really good.
- 8:46So that's what it is for me. So that's kind of what this
- 8:49category is about is like beautification.
- 8:51So something I recently did is I bought this assessment.
- 8:55It was like a colorist assessment.
- 8:57You can find people on Instagram that do them.
- 8:59And what it does is it looks at the undertones of your skin and
- 9:02it recommends hair colors, makeup colors, clothing colors
- 9:06for you. So part of what I'm doing in
- 9:08this area to glow up is I'm going to be dyeing my hair and
- 9:12I'm also going to be shifting my makeup a little bit to align
- 9:15with it. So I'm excited for that.
- 9:17I really like making those big changes right before the new
- 9:20year starts. So maybe there's an area or a
- 9:23category where you can make a really big change.
- 9:25I mean, for you, a really big change, right?
- 9:28Could be anything. But for me dyeing my hair, I'm
- 9:30going to diet it's pretty blonde right now.
- 9:32I'm going to diet brown with some highlights is going to feel
- 9:34like a super big change. And it's going to help me feel
- 9:37like that new version of me, that new chapter.
- 9:40And it's not that I don't love who I am now.
- 9:42It's not that I want to change anything.
- 9:44It's just I honestly find evolution so exciting and so
- 9:47invigorating and so fun that I think you can hold both versions
- 9:52of yourself, your current version and this new version of
- 9:55you in equal measure with equal love and just decide that you
- 9:59want to evolve. It doesn't mean anything about
- 10:01who you currently are. It doesn't mean that you aren't
- 10:03worthy as you are because you are.
- 10:05It just means I want to grow and I want to evolve, right?
- 10:08I want to change my hair color. I want to change my morning
- 10:10routine. I want to do these fun things.
- 10:12So that's something I'm going to do.
- 10:14It's really fun. I highly recommend it.
- 10:16I found it super fun to get that color assessment and just look
- 10:20on Instagram and search like color stylist or something like
- 10:23that. It's like you get your seasonal
- 10:24palette. So that's something I'm going to
- 10:26be doing. I'm also going to be looking up
- 10:28on YouTube and learning new makeup tutorials.
- 10:31I think that'll be really fun to do over the holidays and things
- 10:34are a little bit slower and just practice learning new makeup
- 10:37tutorials. I was a really big tomboy
- 10:40actually for most of my 20s. I didn't really wear any makeup.
- 10:43I didn't dye my hair. I dressed in athletic clothes
- 10:45all the time. And so for me, it's going to be
- 10:48really fun to get to explore that and to happen to be art and
- 10:51the artistry of makeup. So maybe there's something like
- 10:54that for you that you're like, huh, you know, that could be
- 10:57kind of fun for me to play with makeup, or that could be kind of
- 11:00fun for me to play with new colors and wear new colors or
- 11:03dye my hair a slightly different color, right?
- 11:06Allow yourself to expand and evolve.
- 11:09Give yourself permission to be a new version of you as often as
- 11:13you want. That's part of the beauty of the
- 11:15feminine is that we're always evolving.
- 11:18We are multifaceted. We are so interesting when we
- 11:21allow ourselves to follow the things that light us up.
- 11:24We're not meant to be men, right?
- 11:26We're not meant to be the masculine where we focus on one
- 11:29thing and we have one outcome and we're we're single focused.
- 11:32We are diffuse awareness. We have this beautiful capacity
- 11:36to follow different paths that light us up.
- 11:40So that's something I'm going to do.
- 11:41I'm also going to go to Sephora and I'm going to you can pay, I
- 11:44think it was $75.00 that I paid and they will give you a makeup
- 11:48assessment where they will basically show you like this is
- 11:51how you should do your makeup for your bone structure.
- 11:54So honestly, isn't that fun? I'm really excited for these
- 11:58things. So I'll keep you guys posted on
- 12:00how this goes and how fun it will be.
- 12:02Another thing I'm going to do for this is I'm going to start
- 12:05doing hair masks twice a week. And what that means is before I
- 12:09go to bed, I'm just going to soak my hair in deep conditioner
- 12:14or like a hair mask and then sleep in it.
- 12:17And then when I wake up, I'll shower it out.
- 12:19And that helps to just keep your hair super, super healthy and
- 12:21nice. And I also think of all of this
- 12:24category as like just self-care and self love and being devoted
- 12:27to myself, right? A feeling really, really good
- 12:31within my being and it makes me super duper excited.
- 12:34So those are the some of the things I'm going to do in that
- 12:36category. So then let's look at style.
- 12:40So the dressing of our vessel, right?
- 12:42We have our mental, emotional, spiritual and our physical and I
- 12:46think the physical is really fun to play with.
- 12:47I don't really talk about this that often, but it is a really
- 12:51big aspect of how I care for myself is through my clothes,
- 12:55through how I take care of myself and also health, which
- 12:57I'll talk about next. So style, what I'm going to do
- 13:00is I'm going to use that colorist assessment that I got,
- 13:03and I'm going to make a Pinterest board of new styles
- 13:06and clothing that I want to explore.
- 13:08And throughout the year, I'll just slowly kind of buy myself
- 13:11some new capsule items that will reflect these new colors that
- 13:16are complementary for my own skin tone.
- 13:19So that's something I'm going to do that I think will be really
- 13:21fun. And I think you can explore that
- 13:24too, of just what are some ways that you can kind of change up
- 13:27your style a little bit to feel more like this new version of
- 13:31you, right? And I really encourage you to
- 13:33get a couple pieces of clothing that just feel super, super good
- 13:39when you wear them. And they could be something a
- 13:41little more luxury. They could be something that's
- 13:44just a really nice fabric or a really beautiful color, but
- 13:48something that when you put it on, you just feel like a queen,
- 13:52something that just makes you feel amazing.
- 13:54I just bought this blue dress and it's this beautiful velvet
- 13:57with these like open sleeves. And I love it when I put that
- 14:01dress on. I feel like a different woman
- 14:03and I feel so amazing. And that's the power we have as
- 14:07women is clothing and shoes and these kinds of things allow us
- 14:11to tap into different aspects of ourselves, different modes,
- 14:14different frequencies. So I encourage you to play with
- 14:17that. Then the next category is health
- 14:20and fitness. And this is really just routines
- 14:24that I'm going to have and I have the basics like walking a
- 14:27certain amount of steps a day. I usually go for about 10 Ki,
- 14:30feel like 10K kind of takes a really long time.
- 14:33Then I exercise five days a week.
- 14:35These are things I already do. Another thing I'm going to add
- 14:38in is I'm going to do a parasite cleanse.
- 14:40I did one earlier in the year and I absolutely loved it.
- 14:45It was not easy, but I really enjoyed it.
- 14:47If you've never explored parasites, I'm not going to talk
- 14:51about it on this podcast, but I encourage you to look up other
- 14:54podcasts that talk about it because pretty much everybody in
- 14:58the Western world has parasites, according to these people.
- 15:01I don't know. All I know is last time I did
- 15:03it, I definitely did have parasites.
- 15:05So it was really valuable for me to do because they're really
- 15:09easy to get there in food, especially if you eat raw foods
- 15:13like sushi, things like that, or you eat uncooked vegetables,
- 15:16it's easy to get them. And so doing this kind of detox
- 15:20not only releases the physical, but it also is an energetic
- 15:24release as well. And I really enjoyed that.
- 15:26I felt so light. I felt so clear after I did it.
- 15:29So in other cultures, they will do this multiple times a year.
- 15:33So something to think about. Just going to put that out
- 15:35there. And then another thing that I
- 15:40have started doing is once a month I get a lymphatic drainage
- 15:43massage professionally. So this is something that I
- 15:47absolutely love. It is so calming and it again,
- 15:50clears out any stagnancy within the body.
- 15:53Honestly, oftentimes I feel like we feel stagnancy in our minds
- 15:58because we just have a lot of gunk built up in our bodies,
- 16:02right? We have old emotions, We have
- 16:03stored chemicals from the environment, from our water,
- 16:06those kinds of things that get stuck in our bodies.
- 16:09And the more that we can move them out, the more we will feel
- 16:12significantly, significantly better.
- 16:14Another way that you can do this is also just getting a dry brush
- 16:17and dry brushing before the shower.
- 16:19Just kind of Google that. You can also do this through a
- 16:22sauna or a steam room. And that's something I have
- 16:25started doing twice a week. I used to do it once in a while.
- 16:29Now I'm committing to doing it twice a week to really help that
- 16:31flow within my body. I really personally find the
- 16:35more that I encourage detox in my body, the better I feel
- 16:38mentally, the better I feel emotionally because especially
- 16:42as women, you can get a lot of estrogen that doesn't fully get
- 16:45detoxified from your body. That probably can happen during
- 16:48menopause too. So that's why I'm really also
- 16:51big on these detoxifying rituals.
- 16:53Before I did all this spiritual coaching that I'm doing now with
- 16:57my clients, I did a health coaching certification.
- 16:59I was really, really, really into health.
- 17:01So it is something that I think is hugely important, how we take
- 17:05care of our bodies, for our energy levels and our ability to
- 17:08raise our vibration. We can't separate the two.
- 17:11We have to really keep them united.
- 17:13So I really hope you guys are enjoying this podcast.
- 17:16I know it's a little bit different than my usual kind of
- 17:18podcast, which are much more spiritual.
- 17:20This is a little more tactical. So I hope you're really enjoying
- 17:22it. And if you leave me a review on
- 17:26this podcast episode either on Apple or on Spotify and
- 17:30screenshot it and then message it to me on Instagram at
- 17:33alignment with Jen, then I will send you the PDF that I have of
- 17:38all of the stuff that I'm doing. So it's way more in depth.
- 17:42So if you're a nerd like me and you want to just nerd out on
- 17:44optimizing your life, leave that comment, send me a photo of it
- 17:48on Instagram. It'll take you probably 2
- 17:49minutes and then I'll hit you back with the PDF of literally
- 17:53my super extensive plan. Let's do it.
- 17:56So my next category is confidence and skills.
- 17:59So something I started doing recently, I just started last
- 18:01week is Toastmasters. I was really terrified of it
- 18:05because it's very, very structured.
- 18:07It's very rigid, which doesn't really super isn't really my
- 18:12vibe. I loved it.
- 18:13So I'm going to keep doing that and that's going to really help
- 18:16me boost my ability to speak publicly, boost my ability to
- 18:19not say and like so much. So that's a skill that I'm
- 18:22working on. I'm also going to join a local
- 18:24entrepreneurs organization because I want to meet more
- 18:27entrepreneurs. So putting myself out there in
- 18:29new ways to develop new skills and confidence.
- 18:33Then another area of my life is going to be relationships.
- 18:37So I really want to increase my understanding and my presence
- 18:42within relationships. So I'm actually doing a book
- 18:46study on this book called Rethinking Love by Monica Berg,
- 18:50and I'm doing it with one of my mentors.
- 18:53And so I'm going to read it and then her and I are going to meet
- 18:56and every two weeks we're going to talk about it.
- 18:57So I'm very excited for that. I think that'll deepen my
- 19:00understanding of relationships a lot.
- 19:02So that's kind of what I'm doing in that area currently.
- 19:05I'll probably add some more things then for mindset and
- 19:09consciousness. So one thing that I'm going to
- 19:12be doing is no longer scrolling at all.
- 19:15I really find that scrolling is so toxic because you get all
- 19:18these random, like random things and they just will seep into
- 19:23your mind and I don't like it. I don't want that in my mind.
- 19:26I don't want to just be at the whim of some algorithm for what
- 19:29I see. So I'm going to not be scrolling
- 19:32anymore and or very, very minimally or only accounts that
- 19:37I actually follow. That way it's more iterated.
- 19:40I don't even know if you can do that anymore on Instagram.
- 19:43But I'm really going to reduce it because I don't like what
- 19:46that does to my subconscious mind and that it puts gunk in
- 19:49there that I don't. I work so hard to UN gunk it.
- 19:51I don't want to gunk it up. So that's one thing I'm going to
- 19:54be doing. And then another thing I'm going
- 19:56to be doing is right now I do 1 rewiring session a week from my
- 20:01own programs. I use my own rewiring vault that
- 20:04my clients have and. I use it.
- 20:07I'm going to start doing two of those sessions a week.
- 20:10So I'm going to up my rewiring because I think it's super
- 20:13awesome and fun and I feel like it always brings magic and
- 20:16miracles into my life when I clear out those deeper seated
- 20:20limiting beliefs around consciousness and around money
- 20:23and around relationships and just the old programming from my
- 20:26past And I really architect my inner world.
- 20:29So that's what I'm going to be doing there.
- 20:31And then another thing I'm going to do too is I'm going to make a
- 20:34list of all the books that I want to read in the new year and
- 20:37maybe I'll share that with you guys on Instagram.
- 20:39And I am going to be slowly working through all those books.
- 20:44So that's what I'm doing in all of those categories.
- 20:46So those are the big categories. I didn't go into everything for
- 20:50the sake of time, but if you would like again, that PDF of
- 20:54this of everything much more in detail, then you can leave a
- 20:59comment or review on this podcast episode either on
- 21:02Spotify or on Apple. Message it to me, a screenshot
- 21:06of it, and then I will send you the PDF and exchange.
- 21:09So I hope that you love this. I hope that it was super helpful
- 21:12for you and it got you excited for the new year and all of
- 21:15these fun ways that we can create changes in our lives,
- 21:19even if you do one of them or you do your own version of these
- 21:22things. I hope it gave you some
- 21:23categories to think about and look at.
- 21:25And yeah, I will see you in our next episode.
- 21:28Bye.
