Big goals, no pressure: Planning your creative year with The Good Ship Illustration


Listen Later

Is it time to set goals, or are you feeling more “no plans, just let me lie down” this year? 

We chat about:

  • Why some years are for sprinting, and others are for walking.
  • The power of visual goal-setting.
  • How to make goals human-sized, doable, and fun, without freaking yourself out.

Here's a Good Ship permission slip to do your 2025 goal-setting in a way that works for your brain/energy-levels/life.
