May 1st is the New January 1st | ep. 49

💬 Anything that's happened before May 1st, doesn't count lol (oops)

We know we set goals for Q1 and we're already a month into Q2 before we got called out in the most recent Book Club Wine Night for how the 90 Day Non-Negotiable has gone...

Let's just say, we both dropped the ball on everything and every goal we set for Q1, but you know what - it doesn't count anyways! SPRING is when you should be making goals - so let's try this again.

Here's to Q2 goals :)

Screw New Year's Resolutions. We're Going for Vibes (word of the year lol) & Q1 Goals Instead | ep. 39

We said TO HECK with New Years Resolutions. And instead, let's make Q1 goals. Or quarterly goals all of 2024 and see what happens. It's hard to set a goal for your ENTIRE year when you don't even know what your year is going to look like, where you'll be, what's going to happen, etc. so instead we're planning for every few months because we can more likely plan for 3 months while setting ourselves up for success than we can successfully plan out how OCTOBER of this year is going to look. Let's be honest.
