Here we are at the beginning of a new year, but before we move on to the next year we always have to recap our lessons learned from the previous year, right?

So, I wanted to share all of the lessons I learned throughout 2018 during my year of “balance”. I’m sharing why I chose the word balance, what it meant to me, + all of the areas of my life I was working towards balancing.

Plus, I’m sharing how I transitioned from “Balance” in 2018 to “Trust” in 2019…and all of the reviewing + prep work in between.

In this episode, I share about:

• My 2016 word for the year: Less

• My 2017 word for the year: Achieve

• My 2018 word for the year: Balance

• My 2019 word for the year: Trust

• Why I pick a word for the year vs. making resolutions

• My month-by-month highlights from 2018

• My lessons learned + challenges I had in 2018

• My journey with my mental health

• The balance between Family, Work, + Personal goals

• Details about my Fresh Start Weekends Rhythm

• How + why I review the previous year

• How + why I plan for the year ahead

• What I’m saying yes + no to in 2019

• What I’m planning for my year of Trust in 2019
