In the last episode we "Unwrapped Our Intentions." Join me for the second part of a two part series on goal setting! In this episode, I share how you can create SMARTer Goals (thank you, George T. Doran), as well as strategies for creating an achievable roadmap for accomplishing them. I further share how tiny, atomic habits (thank you, James Clear!) support your intentions and goals daily, and how getting clear on THE ONE THING (thank you, Gary W. Keller and Jay Papasan) can keep you focused on what matters most.

Unwrap Your Intentions

It's almost a new year and naturally a time to set new goals. Join me for part one of a two part series on goal setting! In this episode, I share a three step process to experiment with before setting your goals. It begins with assessing your wheel of life, prioritizing a few key areas, and asking yourself WHY improving a given area is really important. WHY do this? Goals are better with meaningful intention. Intention anchors you on why something matters, and helps you more easily think about what you truly want to achieve. Let's do this!

Self-Compassion: Five Takeaways from You Are Not a Sh*tty Parent

Monica here to let you know I have Sh*tty Parent Syndrome, and you probably do too. In this episode I share with you five takeaways from the greatest book ever, "You Are Not a Sh*tty Parent" by Carla Naumburg. Even if you are not a parent, these takeaways are worth a listen, as they can provide you with some inspiration to be more gentle with yourselves. Listen up as I explore my insights, and even how I managed to tie it back to the "sh*tty" self-awareness training we give our kids during potty training. Lastly, I may have thrown in some tips I learned from a free Tony Robbins seminar I recently attended. Let's get in the STATE, STORY as well employ STRATEGIES for growing as creative and loving parents and people. Enjoy!
