Are you already roaring and ready to go in 2020?
Is your planner ready, the journal unwrapped and the calendar loaded?
Hold up there hustler!
Before you dive in head first, it’s time for to SLOOWwwwww down…. and review your year.
Of course, I practice what I preach and I wanted to share my lessons with you: the good, the bad, and the downright embarrassing.
Here’s part 1 of 2 episodes ALL about my successes, failures and mistakes I made in 2019 and how I’ll show up in 2020 as a result.
My hope for you is this: that you listen to my experience - the good and the bad - and it inspires you to reflect on your year for yourself. And I hope it gives you some ideas of what you may want to try in the new year - and what mistakes you can learn from of mine to avoid yourself.
If you’re curious what it looks like behind-the-scenes in my personal life as a mompreneur, real estate investor, podcast host, wife, mama, over-achieving, people pleasing perfectionist, here’s what worked, what didn’t, what I learned, and what’s ahead for 2020.
This is the real life story of a successful woman, a struggling woman, and a real woman who’s building a meaningful life - her dream life - one day at a time.
