Your goal planning isn't failing because you're not disciplined enough. It's failing because you're walking straight into these three hidden traps. If you've ever found that old goal-setting journal from January and felt that sickening pit in your stomach, there's a reason why. Most women abandon their long-term plans by March, but it's not because they lack willpower. It's because traditional planning approaches set them up for failure from day one.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the three most common long-term planning traps that keep women stuck in cycles of setting intentions, getting overwhelmed, and giving up. More importantly, I'm showing you exactly how to avoid these traps so your next planning session actually leads to real progress on what matters most to you.

In This Episode, I'll Cover:

• The three hidden traps that sabotage long-term planning success
• Why traditional planning approaches fail women specifically
• The two essential one-page tools I use to stay on track all year
• How to create a realistic roadmap that works with your real life
• Why October is the strategic time for annual planning (not January)
