i hope you're in full-on cozy mode right now! maybe you’re still in pajamas, definitely surrounded by leftovers, probably avoiding your inbox (and yet here you are reading this. i appreciate you🥹)

we have 5 days left in 2025!!?! so instead of hitting you with a "year-end goals checklist" i really just wanted to chat :)

because this was a big year for me.

a really hard one, actually. but also kind of beautiful? idk. let's get into it.

i'm gonna be honest with you, friend, because that's what we do here :) this year was really, really hard.

it was also full of growth, learning, independence, and betting on myself in all sorts of ways i never had before. but it was hard.

i started 2025 super unhappy with my life. but somewhere along the way i decided to stop muddling along and bet on myself. i started teague media from my couch and took savvie from an idea to a community of women who actually care about building wealth better.

i didn’t know then that choosing growth really costs you things. it cost me comfort, certainty, and relationships with people who preferred a smaller version of me. and that's the part that split me wide open.

but you, my friend, were not made to shrink. no spirits of timidity are welcome in this house!! you were put on this earth to be bold, courageous, and celebrated for what makes you, YOU 🤍

sometimes the business takes longer, the healing isn't linear, and the path looks nothing like the 2023 vision board. but if the alternative is staying small? it's just not worth it.

so if you're ending this year different than you started it...me too 💌

and i think that’s exactly where we're supposed to be.

the hard stuff:

what i'm taking into 2026:

clickin’ supports our sponsor + my january coffee budget <3

Imagine this. You open your phone to an alert. It says, “you spent $236,000,000 more this month than you did last month.”

If you were the top bidder at Sotheby’s fall auctions, it could be reality.

Sounds crazy, right? But when the ultra-wealthy spend staggering amounts on blue-chip art, it’s not just for decoration.

The scarcity of these treasured artworks has helped drive their prices, in exceptional cases, to thin-air heights, without moving in lockstep with other asset classes.

The contemporary and post war segments have even outpaced the S&P 500 overall since 1995.*

Now, over 70,000 people have invested $1.2 billion+ across 500 iconic artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.

How? You don’t need Medici money to invest in multimillion dollar artworks with Masterworks.

Thousands of members have gotten annualized net returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8% from 26 sales to date.

thank you for being here.

teague media, the women DMing savvie to say thank you, this newsletter… these have all become my most prized posessions. i built them. and this community is one of my favorite parts, and that's because of you.

thank you from the bottom of my heart for your willingness to sit in the messy middle with me this year.

i’ll see you in 2026 💌

xo, callie 🤍

p.s. reply with one thing you're proud of from this year. especially the hard stuff. especially the growth that cost you something. let’s end 2025 celebrating the brave version of you.

p.p.s. monsieur noupe said you better tighten up that budget in the new year. his words, not mine.
