Word of the year 02.01.2024

I've never been super big on resolutions. It's so hard to know who you're going to be in a year and for so many, we over commit and don't plan things out accordingly to actually accomplish our goals. A few years ago, though, I stumbled upon this idea of word of the year. How you go about finding/choosing your word of the year is different for everyone, but it essentially takes the place of a resol...

What I am and am NOT taking with me into 2024 26.12.2023

When one year closes and leads into another year, it's nearly impossible to not think about what went well and what didn't go well with the previous year. The further on into my personal development journey I've gone, I've realized how much value there really is in not just reflecting on what you want to do differently, but what went well and what you want to keep doing!

The questions to ask yourself before the year ends 19.12.2023

We are here- those last couple of episodes of every single business related podcast where we talk about goal setting.

My biggest failure of 2023 and what it means about me 12.12.2023

I hate it when gurus talk about the parts of their lives that didn't go well... it just feels like it happened so long ago that they really can't relate. I also hate when all the podcasters talk about their year in review and don't really hit on the biggest failures and lessons they've learned. I am a firm believer that your failures teach you so much and I'm so excited to share my biggest failure...

Every time we start a new month, a new quarter, and a new year, you see ALL kinds of posts and content around goal setting.
