Today's episode is dedicated to monthly planning rhythms! Sarah discusses why the monthly planning level can be a challenging one, but then provides reasons to try giving it some attention!
Elements Discussed:
- Ways to add to the "fresh start" energy - screen backgrounds + monthly tracking
- Monthly work plan (new element for Sarah!)
- Monthly goal setting (middle piece of the Nested Goals method - great way to break up big seasonal projects), including a look back / forward / within, and a calendar landscape review
- Monthly "extras" - might include budget, household supply maintenance, fitness ideas, library holds, adding in fun, and more!
