The Embodied Art of Goal Setting: Why Presence and Posture Matter More Than You Think | Ep. 250
Have you ever noticed that sometimes the biggest breakthroughs in planning don’t come from adding more to your plate, but from slowing down and paying attention? In this episode, I’m diving into the magic of presence, posture, and possibility. I talk about how these three simple shifts can totally transform the way you set goals and move through change. Spoiler: it’s not just mindset work, it’s an embodiment practice.
I also get a little personal in this one, sharing some updates about my kids’ health journeys and how planning has been a lifeline through the chaos of appointments, worry, and waiting rooms. The truth is, life is always happening around our plans, and learning to approach it all with presence and a new kind of posture has been a game-changer for me.
By the end of this episode, you’ll walk away with small, practical practices to try this week—from micro-moments of presence, to experimenting with new postures toward rest or curiosity, to mapping out fresh possibilities. If you’ve been feeling stuck, scattered, or like your goals are slipping away, this conversation will help you reconnect with clarity and discover what’s possible when you bring both awareness and embodiment into your planning.
