Don’t Count 2025 (or Yourself) Out


Listen Later

If 2025 has felt like one long highlight reel of L’s, this episode is for you. But here’s the reframe: L’s don’t just stand for “losses,” they stand for lessons. And the year isn’t over yet—you still have time to stack up some meaningful wins.

In this episode, I share a story from 2020 when the world felt upside down. Instead of waiting for “January” or a perfect moment, I set what felt like an impossible goal: get certified as a nutrition coach in the middle of the chaos. That choice didn’t just change my career—it created momentum that carried me forward long after the year ended.

Now I’m inviting you to do the same. You have two options:

* Pick one impossible goal for the rest of the year—the bold, scary one you’ve been putting off.

* Or create a list of 25 small wins you can knock out before December 31st.

Here’s why this matters: the act of declaring something “impossible” as possible sparks momentum. It shifts you from waiting mode to creating mode, and that energy will bleed into January with peace and excitement instead of exhaustion or regret.

Don’t count out 2025. And definitely don’t count out yourself.

👉 Listen in to get inspired, hear practical examples, and leave with a plan to finish the year strong.
