What if this year wasn’t about pushing harder, proving more, or chasing another list of resolutions?

In this episode, Marci Owen invites you into a gentler, more powerful way of moving through the year: living by design, not by default. Instead of goals that create pressure, she introduces the practice of choosing one meaningful word—a word that becomes your guide, your compass, and your way back to yourself when life feels busy, overwhelming, or uncertain.

You’ll learn:

• Why a word is different from a goal—and how it supports your nervous system rather than stressing it
• What it means to live by default versus living with intention
• How to “listen” for your word instead of forcing one from your head
• Reflective questions to help you discover the quality your soul is asking for this year
• Simple ways to return to your word when you forget or feel off course

Marci shares personal stories, practical reflection prompts, and a compassionate, faith-centered perspective to help you choose a word that doesn’t demand more from you—but brings you home.

If you’re longing for clarity, self-trust, and a deeper relationship with yourself this year, this episode is your invitation to begin.

✨ Ready to live by design, not default? Press play.

And if you’re craving support as you walk this path, Marci also invites you to explore Self Love YOUniversity, where growth happens through her powerful Inner Relationship Method, nervous system support, coaching, doodling activities and community.
