Just in case you are easing into this New Year and still thinking about how you want to set up your days, weeks, and mindset...

...I figured I'd share some of my intentions with you. Most of these have been intentions for many years and I'd like to keep them in. Some of them are newer. Do we have any in common?

I'm listing in a bit of a brain dump kinda way:

LISS (low intensity steady state cardio)
HIIT (high intensity interval training)
MISS (medium intensity steady state cardio)
Strength training
Sauna
Cold exposure
Walks or dance parties
Sunshine
Lumebox
Dry brush
Declutter
Pour into relationships
Cooking
Baking
House projects
Read / learn daily
Business growth w/ improved systems
Stretch / mobility
House vibes: peace, fun, connection, playfulness, support, unconditional love, leadership, responsibility, relaxation, open-ended conversation, everything is figureoutable
Sing, hum
Music (listen, make)
Create - draw, paint, write
Celebrate - a bunch of milestone birthdays for my people this year
Financial growth, investment
Indoor garden and outdoor garden
Sleep
Hobbies + fun - snowboard, ice skate, boogie board, jet ski, rock climb, live music, date nights, comedians, friends, family
Minimal nighttime artificial light
Romanticize more of the small moments
Monthly self assessments
Weekly digital declutter session (photos, videos, email)
Grounding daily
Take more days off (Have worked 364 days in the past many years taking only Christmas off completely. That has to change).
Love my people in THEIR love language more
Volunteer projects / donate - kids involved where appropriate
Start that big new work project
Change lives through my course and coaching
Alcohol less than 1 drink per week
'Buckets' I plan to focus on: health, marriage, motherhood, 'housekeeping / homesteading', hobbies / personal, business, finance, social / give back
Flexibility + ebb and flow ... nothing here is forced, just highly valued.

Hope it's been a great start to 2024 for you so far!

XO,
Tara

P.S. Today is the last day to join the January round of TRANSFORM: Body + Mind, my 28-day metabolism-boosting course. If you have any health or body composition goals for this year, get ready to do something WILDLY different to get to the root of the issue(s). More information and sign up link here.

Life Coffee.

That's what I'm going to call it.

Once a month in 2024, probably on the last day of the month, I will be starting a new practice. Join me?

I will be finding at least a handful of minutes to sit down with a cup of coffee (or tea or whatever) and do a little monthly self-review.

I will start with reflection:

What am I proud of from the last month ... behaviors, progress, intention, results?

What might be something I want to tweak going forward? What would be a reasonable next step forward?

Any specific challenges or worries coming up in the next month? If so, how do I want to navigate it?

What do I want to work on for the next month? What do I need to plan, schedule, buy, start doing, stop doing in order to pull it off?

I will be asking these questions across a few areas of my life: as a wife, mother, health and self care, business and finances.

If you'd like to start a new process that will help with all other processes, join me with a monthly Life Coffee!

Wishing you a beautiful last few days of the year. 2024, we're coming for ya!

XO,
Tara

P.S. A couple of ways we can work together in the new year:

TRANSFORM: Body + Mind, my 28 day metabolism-boosting course. Enrollment begin January 3rd.

1:1 coaching is best for those who want additional accountability, customization, or who have certain diagnoses that will benefit from extra guidance, support and a deep dive.
