This week, host Maddy Michielssen, IFBB Pro and founder of the MPowered Coaching Collective, dives into one of her most transformative rituals—one she’s been practicing every December for the past five years. This simple yet powerful exercise will help you reflect on the past year, uncover invaluable insights, and gain clarity on your goals for 2025.

Through six thoughtfully crafted questions, Maddy guides you on a journey of self-reflection that reveals where you are now and where you truly want to go next. Along the way, she shares personal stories, including a life lesson from a pitch-black mountain road in California, and offers a framework to stop, start, and continue habits that align with your authentic path.

🎙 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The importance of reflection before setting meaningful goals.
• How to align your goals with your "what" and "why" for lasting motivation.
• A practical approach to identifying what to stop, continue, and start in the new year.
• How to create resolutions with deeply personal, intrinsic meaning.

This episode is packed with actionable advice to help you enter 2025 with purpose and empowerment. Plus, Maddy’s reflections on her own growth and the expansion of MPowered Coaching Collective will inspire you to take the reins of your health and well-being.
