Ditch the Vision Board: A Fresh Take on Goal-Setting

In this episode in the inner sanctum, we’re keeping it real about the New Year—no fluffy resolutions, just practical ways to set goals and actually follow through. 

We dive into navigating multiple roles, business shifts, and making lifestyle changes that feel good (hello, dopamine hacks!). Plus, we’re shaking up traditional goal-setting by swapping vision boards for something way more fun—Bingo cards. 

From managing energy post-holiday chaos to setting goals that actually stick, this conversation is all about making the new year work for you. Expect laughs, honesty, and a refreshing take on growth without the pressure.
