It's said that we overestimate what we can do in a day and underestimate what we can do in a year. In this solo episode, I walk you through a grounded Q4 reset: how to debrief the year so far, choose your “big rock” for the quarter, align it with your Human Design, and set up simple systems so your business fuels your life (not the other way around).

Even if you're resistant to planning in your business, you'll find juicy tidbits like:

• A quick Year-to-Date/Q3 debrief process that actually keeps you on track.
• The two lenses to review: tangible metrics and intangible feels
• Questions to audit your revenue, offers, and delivery models
• How Human Design (type, authority, profile, circuitry) should shape delivery
• Why “every offer needs a message” and how to stop creating content to nowhere
• The Big Rocks planning method for Q4 (and what my rocks are)
• Building soft practices + nervous system support into your plan
• Systems check: do your current ops/funnels hold the goal you’re setting?
• Setting a simple revenue target (and pressure-free ways to use it)
• Why Q4 can (and should) be your strongest quarter

Highlights & Prompts

• Start with numbers: What did you bring in (Q3 or YTD)? Which offers drove it? How were those offers delivered—and did you love that delivery?
• Design-aligned delivery: Group vs. 1:1 isn’t a “should”—it’s Human Design circuitry. Where did you force formats that don’t suit your design?
• Message before more: Map offers → messaging → content. Stop over-educating and start creating self-identifying content that leads somewhere.
• Pick one Big Rock for Q4: Launch, fill X 1:1 spots, list growth, or a revenue milestone—then let every weekly task point at it.
• Support yourself: What boundaries, rest, nature time, childcare, or meal help will keep you resourced for the quarter? Schedule it now.
• Systems reality check: Do your site, funnels, email, and tracking support the result you want? If not, pause to shore them up.
• Black Friday teaser: Traffic is highest in Q4; next week I’ll share practical Black Friday ideas you can actually build into your plan, should you wish.
