In this episode of It’s Pretty Simple, I’m kicking off season 2 by talking about a goal-setting method that actually works for me—no pressure, no burnout.
I’m not a fan of New Year’s resolutions, so I share why I prefer quarterly goals and habit-based changes. Whether it’s training for a half marathon or just trying to stay consistent with hydration, breaking things down into smaller chunks helps me stay on track without feeling overwhelmed.
I also dive into other goal-setting methods like SMART goals and the 2% rule and how flexibility is key in making progress. If you’re already feeling off track with your resolutions, this episode is for you!
