When was the last time you actually sat down and reflected on where you're at?

Not the "I'll think about it while I'm rushing through my to-do list" kind of reflection. I'm talking about actually sitting with yourself, asking the hard questions, and getting real about what's working, what's not, and where you're actually going.

Today's episode is different. This is a full reflection exercise that I'm walking you through, both personally and professionally. I'm asking you the same questions I ask myself and my clients, and I'm sharing my own raw answers as we go.

We're covering what made you proud this year (even if nobody noticed), where you drained yourself, what boundaries you slipped on, what surprised you about your growth, where you self-sabotaged, and what you actually want for next year. I'm also getting honest about where I overextended, under-resourced myself, and tried to pretend I wasn't human this year.

Grab a journal or your notes app. You can listen and reflect as you go, or come back to this one quarterly. Either way, this is the clarity work that actually creates direction.
