• Free Shipping on orders $140+ ends tomorrow (Dec 23, at noon CT). Excludes surcharge areas.
• “The Next Chapter Event” discounts with up to 60% OFF ends tomorrow (Dec 23, at noon CT).
• Home Office will be closed Thursday and Friday, Dec. 25-26, for the Christmas holiday. This means we’ll skip the Advisor Update email on Dec. 26 so you can relax and enjoy a long weekend. Home Office will also be closed on Thursday, Jan. 1.
• The January product launch will be on Friday, Jan. 2. You’ll receive the preview in your Dec. 29 Advisor Weekly email.
• The next Create the Best kicks off on Jan. 8, 2026. RSVP once for ALL the 2026 webinars in the series.

We know the holidays are a special time to slow down and enjoy moments with friends and family — and we’re doing the same. To give both our Advisors and Home Office team a chance to fully unplug, Home Office will be closed Thursday and Friday, Dec. 25–26, creating a four-day weekend for our community.
Because of the break, there will be no Advisor Update email on Dec. 26. We’ll also be sharing reminders in the Advisor Groups and Virtual Crop Group, and pausing posts and comments Dec. 25–28, so everyone can focus on making meaningful memories. Everything will resume on Dec. 29.
As you plan ahead, please note that Home Office will be closed on Thursday, Jan. 1, and the January product launch will take place on Friday, Jan. 2. You’ll receive a preview in your Dec. 29 Advisor Weekly email.
