Can you believe we’re already halfway through 2025? If you’re like me, you’ve probably had your head down, working hard, only to look up and wonder where the year went. It’s normal to drift away from your original goals or even forget them entirely by this point in the year. Life gets complex, priorities shift, and sometimes what mattered in January doesn’t feel as urgent now. The good news? It’s never too late to reset, and that’s exactly what this episode is about.
I walk you through the RESET process—a simple, five-step system we’ve been using for years to help people get back on track with what matters most. We start by reflecting on the goals you set at the beginning of the year and reconnecting with the ones that truly matter. Next, we evaluate your current progress and identify the gaps. From there, it’s all about simplifying your focus, establishing specific activities that move the needle, and time blocking those actions so your priorities are reflected on your calendar. Along the way, I share how constraints and limitations can actually spark your best ideas and fuel real progress.
By taking just an hour to reset your focus now, you give yourself a much better chance to finish the year strong—and maybe even surpass what you thought was possible. The RESET process is here to help you ditch the guilt, reconnect with your core values, and recommit to what matters most for the rest of 2025.
Challenge of the Week:
Pull out your calendar and commit to a RESET. Block 30-60 minutes to work through the five steps—reflect, evaluate, simplify, establish, and time block.
