Hey reader,
This year has been nothing short of extraordinary.
Instead of setting rigid goals or chasing outcomes, I opened myself to a single question: “What is possible out there?”
And the results? Mind-blowing.
Every time I thought, “This is it. This is the most I could wish for,” life would nudge me gently (and sometimes not so gently) and say, “Think bigger.”
Instead of living the narrative of a struggling Ukrainian immigrant, I’ve stepped into one of the greatest expansions of my life.
“Wow! You’re so lucky,” people say when they see the house I live in, the car I drive, and the incredible people I now call friends and colleagues.
But let me tell you something: this “luck” isn’t magic. It’s the logical result of life’s lessons, amazing people, and my response to all of it.
You see, opportunities are always flying your way. The real question is:
Are You Ready to Catch Them?
Here are the three keys that have allowed me to embrace what’s possible:
1. Can You See the Opportunities?
Most of us are so busy with life’s noise that we miss what’s right in front of us.
Stop. Look around. What’s already here? Who’s already here?
Take a pause, and notice the gifts hiding in plain sight.
2. Can You Take the Opportunities?
Even when opportunities appear, they often come with a challenge:
- “I don’t have the time.”
- “I don’t have the money.”
- “I’m not experienced enough.”
To be ready, you need to build your capacity and resourcefulness:
- Save up a little “growth money.”
- Clear your schedule for spontaneous leaps.
- Cultivate energy reserves for the next big step.
- Seek experiences that stretch your comfort zone.
3. Do You Allow Yourself to Take Them?
This one is the hardest. Even when we see the opportunity and have the resources, our inner critic can stop us cold:
- “I don’t deserve this.”
- “This is for someone else, not me.”
I’ve been there. Even after accepting opportunities, I found myself shrinking or apologizing for what I had. And guess what? Life responded by taking those gifts away.
So I stopped. I now own my life unapologetically, and I deeply appreciate every gift I’ve been given.
Highlights from my 2024
- Moved to the US and proudly call myself a Seattleite.
- Started two new businesses: a technology outsourcing agency and a public relations agency.
- Grew my contact book to 4,144 incredible connections.

If there’s one takeaway from this year, it’s this:
possibility begins with openness
You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need to ask, “What’s possible?” and then be willing to see, take, and allow.
Here’s to your year of possibility,
