As we step into 2025, many of us are already thinking about the goals we want to set. But before you dive into that familiar cycle of “new year, new goals,” I want to ask you: What’s really driving your goals?

I’ve been there—setting goals because I thought I “should.” Chasing numbers, revenue, and milestones, thinking that would mean success. But over time, I realized most of those goals were rooted in lack—compensating for something I thought was missing, instead of focusing on what truly matters: the impact I want to make.

In this episode, I’m sharing how it's easy to get caught in that hidden trap and how you can avoid it. It’s not about pushing through goals that don’t feel aligned. It’s about creating goals that are in tune with your purpose and the true impact you’re here to create.

We’ll explore:

  • Why we often create goals from a place of attachment or judgment.
  • How to shift from goal-setting based on external pressure to goals aligned with your essence.
  • The importance of setting goals that are driven by your deeper purpose and the impact you want to make.

This episode is a call to reflect: What if your goals didn’t come from a place of “should” or validation, but from your soul’s deepest desires?

If you’re ready to set goals in 2025 that actually reflect who you are and what you want to create in the world, this episode is for you.

Key Takeaways:

  • Stop chasing external validation with your goals.
  • Align your goals with your soul’s purpose and your true impact.
  • Shift your mindset from "should" to "what truly matters."
