What to Expect This Episode:

If you struggle with perfectionism around goals this time of year and would rather just not set them rather than fail at something new, this episode is for you.

We invite you to shift your mindset and break the failure cycle that sometimes come along with goal setting and perfectionism.

By choosing to set intentions instead of goals you can completely change how you see this time of year, and how you can still achieve what you want.

Listener Favorite Moments:

[2:12] fear of failure I have never thought of it that way with goals but makes so much sense why they are hard to set.

[6:15] Hollywood Hot Take!! Yay!!! Sex and the City that’s me!!! I love this, I think when you get into the narcissist TV shows it will really open people’s eyes to understanding the toxic relationships we have all seen and had no idea.

[16:48-18:06]-self sabotage/control the failure so you can blame that. Robs you of success or lessons learned.

[20:36-21:33]-don’t make your “why” your people. Remove the shame of letting them down if/when you fail, by making sure they’re not your “why”. Your people are not your why. You taught me this along time ago and it still rings so true, when I hear people setting goals I want to be like NO don’t do it just for your kids. [27:08-28:16]-ask yourself “what do I want to be feeling or experiencing differently than I am now” = motivating factor. When you know your MoFa and why, you’re living on purpose.

[35:41-36:26]-set anchors that are specific to your intention. Give it its own thing to anchor you to it. Your arrow necklaces, that’s so cute. When you said bottom of the valley or top of the mountain it just kind of hit me that’s how healing is some days we are in the valley and other on top. I just really like that.
