Write Your Own Rules: Goal Setting Made Easy for Every Mom

In this stimulating episode of "Life After Kids," Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne take listeners on a journey of rejuvenation and self-discovery beyond motherhood with a focus on midyear goal-setting. They emphasize the importance of creating goals as a way to build the life of your dreams rather than feeling weighed down by obligations. This episode serves as a perfect opportunity for listeners to pause, reassess, and realign their aspirations as the hosts share key strategies for effectively checking in on goals, making adjustments, and taking actionable steps toward achieving them.

Throughout the discussion, Dr. Brooke and Dr. Lynne introduce their "Life After Kids" goals framework, a strategic roadmap designed to guide women through assessing various life areas and setting meaningful objectives. Introducing concepts like writing down goals to set intentions in motion and adjusting them when life shifts, they stress the importance of not just setting but also reviewing and recalibrating goals during the year. They share practical advice on balancing achievement with self-care and the joy of living fully in the moment, aligning with feelings of freedom, playfulness, and joy. These insights are bolstered by workbook exercises and journal prompts designed to provoke thought and action.
