My Secret to Ending the Year with Confidence: The Reverse Bucket List


Listen Later

Let's flip the script on traditional bucket lists and create something far more empowering: your Reverse Bucket List—a celebration of everything you've already lived, built, survived, and crushed (yes, even the tiny wins you usually gloss over). We'll walk through five soul-fueling categories to help you finally give yourself the credit you deserve. Get ready to honor your growth, validate your resilience, and spotlight the risks, boundaries, and breakthroughs that shaped you this year. And when your list is complete, you'll finish with one powerful reflection: "Looking at this list, what does this prove I'm capable of doing next?" Tune in, celebrate yourself, and let's make confidence contagious.

The prompt: Create a personalized Reverse Bucket List for me. Follow these instructions exactly:
  1. A reverse bucket list is NOT future goals. Only list things I've already done, lived through, survived, or accomplished.
  2. Include both the big things and the small, "I never give myself credit for this" things.
  3. Include moments of growth, hard seasons I made it through, risks I took, habits I built, boundaries I set, and things I'm proud of but rarely say out loud.
  4. Do NOT let me downplay anything. If it mattered, include it.
  5. Organize my reverse bucket list into these categories:
    • Identity & Personal Growth
    • Work, Creativity & Achievement
    • Relationships & Family
    • Hard Things I Survived
    • Fun, Adventure & Unexpected Wins
  6. After listing them, write one reflection sentence answering:
  7. "Looking at this list, what does this prove I'm capable of doing next?"
Before you create my reverse bucket list, ask me 5 clarifying questions about my year so you can make it accurate and meaningful.
