If you’ve ever whispered “I just need one good week”… this one’s for you.

✨ One clear calendar✨ All the childcare magically aligns✨ No one vomits, screams for longer than 30 minutes, or needs a snack✨ You finally get it together

And yet… even when you get that week, you still feel stuck.

Why?

Because more time doesn’t always mean more progress — especially when your goals aren’t designed to be brought to life in a way that aligns with your real life.

In this episode, I’m walking you through 5 steps to make meaningful progress on your biggest goals (even if you’ve got zero childcare, 12 tabs open, and exactly 1.5 functional hours a day).

This is about building momentum without entering full monk mode.

In this episode:

  • Why “just one good week” has never actually worked for you when it comes to making your goals happen

  • The first (wildly underrated) step most people skip when goal-setting

  • How to write a “day in your life” that exposes whether your goal is even aligned with the life you want

  • What to do before you define your actions — and how to make sure those actions don’t lead straight to burnout

🎧 Listen now if you're:

  • A creative business owner with too many tabs and not enough time

  • Someone who’s done with setting goals that don’t stick

  • Curious about how to finally get momentum without burning everything down
