Goal Setting Workshop: How To Set Inspiring Goals You're Excited To Achieve

goal setting workshop

Ever ended up with a bunch of goals that were technically "SMART" but got you no closer to where you actually wanted to go?! In this free goal setting workshop, you'll learn how to set goals you’re actually excited about AND take immediate action that feels good.

As one of my friends shared with me, "I feel like I don't have good goals, it's really hard...This time of the year can be tough for some to feel they need to figure it out all for the next year."

Ooh yeah. I FEEL this. 

And oh man I CANNOT WAIT for you to see how FUN and LIGHT and ENERGIZING setting goals the right way gets to be.

So my first new year’s gift for you is this FREE goal setting workshop designed to help you enjoy the journey as well as the destination.

5 Steps To Inspiring Goals You're Excited To Work On

In this video, I walk through my 5-step goal-setting process designed to help you bridge the gap between big dreams and real-life steps that make them a reality. 

What You’ll Get Out Of This Goal Setting Workshop

I've broken this free workshop into 5 simple exercises to help you:

  • Lower the freakin' stakes so you can actually enjoy the process

  • Get underneath what your goals are really about...so you can find some immediate ways into action that feel aligned

  • Separate your WANT TO’s from the SHOULD DO’s that drain your energy lead you no closer to what you TRULY want

  • GIVE YOURSELF SPACE to dream big and be okay with not yet knowing HOW you're going to make a particular goal happen (one of the biggest mistakes I see is people watering down their goals because they're scared to inhabit that space of "I don't know yet, but I'm committed to figuring it out." Most goals—and successful career changes—start this way.)

I used this workshop to set my goals last year (you'll hear me share some of them in the vid.)

Even as someone who's pretty good at dreaming big AND making sh*t happen, this workshop turbocharged my goals as well as injected a new playfulness and creativity in pursuing them.

(I can also say that the 4th step helped me meet most of my goals way sooner than planned--like nailing the majority of my goals in Q1.)

I promise this workshop contains no talk of "SMART" goals. Because you already know. And they tend to wring the joy and expansiveness out of what you truly want in your career and life.

Do You Struggle To Set Goals You’re Excited to Follow Through On?

Good goals are designed so that you enjoy the process as well as the end result.

And, well, no one really teaches us how to do that.

Until now, haha.

If you struggle with setting goals, you’re not alone.

Here’s a quick check to use once you’ve watched the video. Are your goals:

  • Inspiring AND doable?

  • Stretchy without being overwhelming?

  • Expansive but not so lofty they feel impossible?!

I hope you enjoyed this goal setting workshop. Let me know if you get stuck or still have questions. And, as always, I'd love to hear your dreams and goals for this year. Share them below in the comments.
