✨ MY FAVORITE NYE RITUAL ✨

Every year, I take some time at the end of December to set the tone for what’s coming next. It’s simple, powerful, and honestly? A game-changer.

When I sit down to answer these questions, I always come out with the clarity, focus, and confidence I need to take on the New Year with purpose. 💪

Want to do it with me?

Grab your journal, light a candle, and dig into these six questions:

✨ 1. What would have to happen in 2025 to make it your BEST year ever?

Be real. What does “best year ever” actually mean to you? Write it down.

✨ 2. What are four goals that’ll get you there?

You don’t need 50 goals—just FOUR that will move the needle and make this your year.

✨ 3. What’s going to try to stop you?

Let’s call it what it is—procrastination, doubt, excuses. What’s your biggest challenge?

✨ 4. How are you going to overcome it?

What do you already have—skills, strengths, experiences—that’ll help you push through?

✨ 5. What’s your 2025 game plan?

How are you going to make it all happen? Day by day. Step by step. What’s the roadmap?

✨ 6. What’s your word for 2025?

Choose one word to focus on all year. The word that’ll remind you what you’re here to do.

Here’s the thing: success doesn’t mean being perfect. 🚫 It’s about doing your best MOST of the time and learning from the rest.

The habits, mindset, and priorities you start building right now will define who you become next month, next year, and beyond.

So, let’s make 2025 the year we:
🚀 Drop the excuses.
💯 Step into the energy we KNOW we’re capable of.
👋 Say goodbye to anything holding us back.

It’s all up to you. Let’s go.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
