Goal setting! It's a curious pass time! After years of goal setting and vision boarding, I have a different take on how to do this with ease and with trust. In today's episode, I share a quick lesson on how you can change up the 'old fashioned' way of goal setting so it feels more intuitive, more courageous and more true to who you want to be.
