A few weeks into the new year, it’s easy to feel discouraged, especially if the goals you set already feel heavy or out of reach. In this episode, I talk about why that happens and what I do instead.
I share why traditional goal-setting can feel like using the wrong map in motherhood, how shifting to a vision changes the entire experience, and why the real work isn’t about doing more, it’s about who you’re becoming along the way.
I’ll share:
Why regular reflection helps you make progress without carrying shame or discouragement
Why time-based goals often create pressure and self-doubt in full seasons of life
How a vision gives direction without demanding speed or perfection
