It may still be 2025, but if you want to hit the ground running in the new year, the time to start planning is now.
In this episode of the Wholistic Productivity Podcast, host Chris LeBrun shares why proactive planning is always better than reactive scrambling—and how to map out your goals for 2026 with confidence and clarity.
Chris introduces the PLAN framework (Picture your vision, Link resources, Assign goals, Navigate the steps) to help you set professional, personal, and purpose-driven goals that align with your bigger vision.
You’ll also learn why celebrating your wins builds momentum, how to budget your time and energy, and how to avoid letting 2025 slip away in the rush toward the new year.
Whether you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or someone who simply wants to be intentional about your life, this episode will equip you with practical steps to dream big, plan smart, and live fully in 2026.
