Happy New Year 2025!  As we start the new year off, I want you to consider being intentional with your goals and "to do" list items.  It may be a bit overwhelming to get all the things done you want to do this year, so let's break down your goals into achievable, and intentional bites!

I walk you through an exercise (so get out your journal!) that includes:

1. Do a Brain Dump
2. Categorize your goals
3. Circle your "Top 3" goals in each category
4. What is the 1 thing you can do today to get started?

Consider carefully who you share your goals with.  Is this person an expert in their field? Do they know your business, or have they done what you are trying to accomplish?  

What do you want to be known for this year?  And what is your "why" behind your goals?
