Ep. 014: Series: Create Your Most Beautiful Life 12 Weeks at a Time– Part Two: The Power of Planning

15 minutes

🗓 What if your calendar told the truth about what matters most?

In this episode of Your Most Beautiful Life, we’re moving from desire to planning—not as pressure, but as permission. When you create a rhythm around what you deeply desire, your life begins to reflect your values… not just your obligations.

This is Part Two of the 4-part series Create Your Most Beautiful Life – 12 Weeks at a Time. Because once you know what you want, you need a way to make space for it.

🎯 You’ll learn:

• The 7 most common blocks that keep women from living with intention

• Why planning isn’t about performance—it’s about alignment

• How to map your 12-week desire into a flexible rhythm

• The mindset shift that turns planning into peace

• Why learning to show up for your plan is the real work of transformation
