About Progress

What do you honestly think about goal-setting? For years I was averse to the idea, driven by the fear of failure if I couldn't accomplish them all perfectly. Now, I set goals differently by keeping my season, my values, and my wants at the forefront of my planning. Together with today's guest, Kate House, we dive in to how you can do that, too, by setting intentions and crafting goals with soul.Kate House is the host of The Live By Design Podcast, a health coach, and online educator. Her purpose is to help women develop the lives they want with intention, not overwhelm.Free DSL Workshop, Kate's Habit TrackerAccess exclusive supporter benefitsSign up for the next Sticky Habit IntensiveFull Show NotesTry Sideshow now!Get 15% off OneSkin with the code PROGRESS at https://www.oneskin.co/ #oneskinpod Learn more about your ad choices.

After an intense realization of my own personal desire for more, I'm ready to talk to you about your own desire for more. I discuss what “more” might look like for you, how to let go of the fear, anchor in, and reach for more. Not just for this year, but for all of your years.I am getting into the fear that often compels us to suppress our desires, conform to societal expectations, and become inadvertent people-pleasers. This is a narrative that resonates with many women, myself included, who have spent years living numb to their own wants, inadvertently damaging not just ourselves but the world.Together, we'll anchor into the truth that wants are not only valid, but essential for personal fulfillment and growth.
