In this episode, I’m sharing one of the simplest yet most powerful practices I come back to every year – choosing a word for the year. It’s something I’ve done for a long time now, and it never fails to bring me clarity, direction, and a deeper connection to what really matters.
I’ll walk you through why this practice works, how it’s shaped my own life over the years, and some gentle, practical ways you can find your word – especially if you’re in a season of transition, searching for balance, or just want to feel more anchored in yourself as the year unfolds.
We’ll explore how your word can become a compass for your intentions, how to weave it into your daily life, and the quiet magic that unfolds when you stay connected to it.
If you’re craving a more intentional start to your year, this is a beautiful place to begin.
Dive deeper into the magic of emotions and transformation by following the podcast for new episodes.
