In this episode, I share a fresh perspective on goal-setting by exploring the concept of giving goals. Unlike traditional goals that focus on personal achievements, giving goals center on kindness, service, and generosity. Inspired by a conversation with my husband during our annual goal-setting tradition, we discuss how to prioritize selflessness and create a positive impact in our communities, families, and workplaces.
Discover practical ways to incorporate giving goals into every life domainâwhether it's contributing to a loved oneâs health, supporting your kidsâ growth, or rallying for a cause youâre passionate about, like my husbandâs inspiring backpack project. If typical goals leave you feeling stuck or selfish, this episode will energize you to dream big about offering your time, resources, and support to benefit others.
Tune in for actionable ideas, heartwarming inspiration, and a unique approach to making the upcoming year more meaningful through giving.

In todayâs episode, I delve into why so many of usâespecially womenâexperience heightened stress during the holiday season. I talk about cognitive overload, the mental strain that occurs when weâre overwhelmed by tasks, decisions, and responsibilities, which often leads to fatigue and burnout. We cover the power of boundaries, how setting non-negotiables and releasing nonessential commitments can protect our mental energy. I also encourage you to try pre-planning responses to common requests and practice âmicro-boundaries,â like finding quiet moments in gatherings to recharge. Finally, I emphasize the importance of self-compassion; the holidays donât need to be perfect to be meaningful. Instead, focus on moments of joy, and allow space for imperfections. With a bit of planning, boundaries, and self-compassion, you can reduce stress, stay present, and truly enjoy what matters most this holiday season. Hereâs to a magical, balanced, and less overwhelming holiday.

In this episode, I reflect on a conference I recently attended and the profound insights I took away. Immersed in a room of growth-minded speakers, authors, and coaches, I felt the contagious energy of shared purpose and encouragement. Three major takeaways resonated deeply. First, I was challenged to identify whose opinions truly matter to me and focus on being irreplaceable to those key peopleâa lens to help prioritize amidst life's chaos. Next, I heard an unexpected perspective: perfectionists arenât always pristine but are often "pile people," gathering unfinished projects in neat stacks out of a desire to get everything just right. Lastly, a concept called "life gate moments" stuck with meâthose pivotal events that redefine our paths and values. These shifts are irreversible and often lead to growth and clarity. As we navigate lifeâs transitions, I encourage you to reflect on who you are irreplaceable to, tackle those perfectionist piles, and honor your life gate moments.

In this podcast episode, I share how the chaos of juggling multiple roles, ambitions, and obligations can leave us overwhelmed and disconnected from what matters most. Despite having a knack for planning, I struggled to maintain momentum after becoming a parent. My foggy, sleep-deprived mind forced me to rethink how I organized my life. I dive into five limiting thought patterns that kept me from effective planning, such as waiting for the "right time," striving for perfection, doubting my skills, fearing uncertainty, and struggling to ask for help. Through personal stories, I explore how shifting these patterns allowed me to reclaim control and find joy in planning. Itâs not about rigid schedules but creating space for meaningful reflection, connection, and action. I encourage listeners to challenge their own limiting beliefs and take small steps to embrace intentional planning, promising more clarity and purpose, if not complete ease, on this journey.

Are you tired of rigid goal-setting systems that feel overwhelming and want a fun, creative approach that actually prioritizes your well-being?
In this episode, Iâm breaking down exactly why the Plan Goal Plan method is different from other time management and goal-setting systems out there.

The Plan Goal Plan method flips the script by helping you plan in a way that prioritizes your well-being and personal development, without sacrificing your ambition.
Iâll walk you through how this approach centers on getting clarity firstâbefore jumping into goalsâand uses creative tools like stickers and doodling to make planning fun, not a chore.

Plus, Iâve got something exciting to share with you, so stick around to the end!

What if the key to achieving your biggest goals lies in embracing setbacks, building daily habits, and rethinking how you approach success?
In my conversation with Joey Lye, Chief Empowerment Officer of Joey Lye LLC, Olympic bronze medalist, and TEDx speaker, she shared incredible insights on goal-setting, mindset, and resilience. Joeyâs story is one of determinationâstarting with her childhood dream of becoming an Olympian and the ups and downs that came with it. She talked about the power of mindset and how, even when she faced setbacks, she used breathwork, self-talk, and discipline to stay focused.
Her transition from athlete to leadership expert is fascinating. She helps individuals and teams develop stronger cultures through the same principles that helped her excel. What stood out to me was her emphasis on support systems and how setbacks clarify how much we want something. Joey also reminded me of the power of breaking big goals into daily actions and how we show up every day.
Her story is a reminder to dream big, use your resources, and trust the journey. Joeyâs experience will leave you feeling inspired.

Free Workshop: Reflect, Align, and Thrive: Ending the Year with Intention
In this episode, Iâm fired up after listening to a podcast that got under my skin. Thereâs this trend Iâve noticed lately where influencers/thought leaders are telling women to stop dreaming big, and honestly, itâs rubbing me the wrong way. I think thereâs a real danger in linking big dreams with overwhelm, especially when itâs coming from people who are wildly successful. It feels disingenuous.
Hereâs the thingâyour big dreams arenât whatâs making you feel overwhelmed. Itâs all the little stuff, the expectations, the âshouldsâ we pile on ourselves. I break down the difference between aspirations, goals, and expectations and urge you to keep dreaming, but to let go of those unrealistic expectations.
Pre-order Kendra Adachi's The Plan.
Living a big life doesnât mean doing more; sometimes, itâs about slowing down and making space for what matters. So, Iâm here to say: Dream as big as you want. Donât let anyone tell you otherwise.
Big dreams donât cause overwhelmâunrealistic expectations do â Itâs not your aspirations that lead to burnout, but the unnecessary tasks and âshouldsâ we place on ourselves.
Thereâs a difference between aspirations, goals, and expectations â Aspirations are your big-picture dreams, goals are the action steps to achieve them, and expectations are often unrealistic pressures that lead to frustration.
Living a big life means making space for what matters â Dreaming big isnât about doing more, itâs about focusing on the things that truly matter and letting go of the rest.

Free Workshop: Reflect, Align, and Thrive: Ending the Year with Intention
In this episode, we're diving into planner season and why your plannerâno matter how gorgeous or hypedâwonât save you. We all love that fresh paper and dreaming of productivity ninja mode, but here's the truth: planners are just tools. They wonât magically fix your life.
Iâm breaking down the limitations of plannersâthey canât control chaos, stop you from being too busy, or make you less overwhelmed. But hereâs the good news: planners can help if used right. They prompt reflection, give structure to your processes, act as visual reminders, and organize your thoughts. Itâs all about pairing the right tool with the right habits and systems.
And hey, if youâre searching for the perfect planner, Iâm here for it! Sign up for Perfect Paper Planner Match. I love matching people with planners that fit their brains and their lives. So, no magic wands here, but planners can be lifesavers while you do the work.
Key Takeaways:
Planners are just tools, not miracle workers â No planner will magically make you more productive. It's the systems and habits you build around them that make the difference.
Use planners to reflect and structure your processes â A good planner can prompt self-reflection, organize your thoughts, and provide visual reminders to stay on track.
Find a planner that works for you â Not every planner fits everyone's life. It's important to experiment and find the one that complements your personal habits and workflow.
As the year draws to a close, take a moment to pause, reflect, and realign with your goals and vision for the future. Join us for a transformative 90-minute workshop, âReflect, Align, and Thrive: Ending the Year with Intention,â designed to help you finish the year feeling fulfilled and empowered.
