Wisdom from 2025

& events you're invited to this month

👋 Hi my name is Roslyn, I’m a 2x founder and executive coach. I help founders fall in love with building their companies again. Learn about working 1:1 here.

Hi there,

I hope you’re having a wonderful week.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t have it in me to write a newsletter this week. I was knocked out by the luteal phase of my cycle and so I gave myself permission to skip writing my usual ~3,000 word newsletter. Sometimes, you’ve just got to prioritize rest.

But I did still want to touch base with you this week to:

Share some of my favorite newsletters from 2025
Ask what you want to read about in 2026
Invite you to a few great events I have coming up

Let’s jump in.

BEST WITHIN NEWSLETTERS OF 2025

You guys, I’m actually really proud of the wisdom I shared throughout 2025.

Some of my newsletters focused on the outer work of building startups—things like fundraising, operationalizing strategy and values, and managing people.

More importantly (IMO), many focused on the inner work of being a founder. Because let’s be honest: most of the time, the biggest thing getting in our way isn’t our strategy or our team—it’s us. Our internal operating systems—our beliefs, emotions, and nervous systems—often haven’t caught up with where we’re trying to go.

And finally, in many of these newsletters, I shared myself with you: my struggles, my hopes, and my own unfolding—where I’ve come from, where I’m going, and who I hope to become along the way.

With that, here are some of my favorite newsletters from 2025.

MINDSET IN MOTION

If you’re in NYC, join me and my wonderful friend Trisha, founder of Break Sports, for a day of movement and 2026 intention-setting on January 25th. I mean, truly can you name a better combo than pilates, pickleball and intention-setting?!

Use code WITHINVIP to get your ticket for $10. Can’t wait to see you! 🙂

WITHIN WALKS

Join us for our next Within Walk for female founders next Friday, January 23rd.

Start your day with movement outdoors + coffee + deep & meaningful chats with other founders.

Leave feeling more open, expanded and in community with others doing the really hard thing that is entrepreneurship.

PS, if it’s freezing, we’ll stay inside the cafe and I’ll lead a discussion around our theme instead of walking outside!

RSVP here.

WINTER FOUNDER CIRCLE

I’m co-hosting a winter circle for women founders on February 2nd.

I’ll be guiding a reflection circle to explore what's ready to emerge this year, what you're being asked to release and who you're becoming in this next chapter.

Expect intimate conversations with fellow founders where you can remove your mask, be seen and supported in your real emotions, challenges and desires.
