A Year In Review: Thank you 2024

As we step into 2025, I’m filled with gratitude, reflection,
and excitement for what’s ahead.

2024 was a year of incredible growth for Mode. Together, we grew our business, expanded our amazing Management and Instructing team, and welcomed many special people into our studios.

On a personal note, 2024 was a year of immense pressure and resilience. I was working 15-18 hour days, 7 days a week, wearing all the hats for months on end - the kind of relentless juggle only other small business owners truly understand. Balance wasn’t a thing, nor did it feel like an option, as I faced the very real pressure of a looming deadline: my second baby, Albie’s arrival. At 37 weeks pregnant, I managed to get our Brookvale studio launched, and then quickly shifted my focus to the relaunch of our dream dual studio on West Esplanade in Manly. Just 48 hours after a very speedy (and incredible) birth, there we were - Albie and I - on-site with trades, working through the next fit-out and project.

It was also a year of decision-making - more often than not, difficult ones that tested and challenged me to my core. Yet, through it all, it became a year of acceptance, letting go, and trusting in the belief that the universe always has a plan. And here we are.

As we move into 2025, let’s focus on feeling good - our business tagline and a powerful mantra for life. This year, I challenge you to pause and ask yourself:

 How do you want to feel in 2025?
What will bring you that high-vibration joy?
How can you fiercely love yourself this year?

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of this journey. May we be happy. May we be healthy. May we continue to support and uplift one another as a community.

Happy New Year to you. I truly adore you.

With love and gratitude,

Laura B
