As a busy mom, goal-setting can sometimes feel like just another task on an already overwhelming to-do list. You’re always taking care of everyone else, and by the time you get a moment to think about your own goals, you're too exhausted to even know where to start. Sound familiar?
In this podcast episode, I tackle a question from a mom of four who’s been struggling with this exact challenge: how to set meaningful goals when you feel like you’re always putting yourself last. If you’ve ever felt like you’re too busy, too tired, or too overwhelmed to focus on your own growth, this episode is for you.
I share simple, actionable steps to help you shift your mindset around goals—from something you have to do, to something you want to do for fun and personal growth. Whether you're looking to improve your health, create more time for yourself, or just rediscover a passion you’ve put on hold, I’ll walk you through my framework for setting goals that are actually achievable and don’t add more stress to your life.
Plus, I dive into common goal-setting mistakes and how to avoid them, offer tips on where to start if you’re feeling stuck, and share some personal stories about how I’ve navigated goal-setting as a mom with young kids.
This episode will empower you to set goals that align with your values and bring more joy and fulfillment into your life.
