Happy New Year Lovies!

It’s a new year! That means it’s time for a review of the past year. I love looking back and seeing all the things I accomplished, all the struggles I overcame – and also those I didn’t.
Today we will look at the things that failed to launch for me in 2022!

-       I tried multiple times to begin a group coaching program. Either my marketing was off or it just wasn’t the right time, but it never did.

-       I did publish two books, but they were not without lots of bumps in the road.

-       I wanted to grow my “Purpose for Kids” program. I started it as a response to parents needing movement for their quarantined kids and thought it could grow even more last year, but it fell flat

-       My goal of 2-3 speaking engagements each month fell short by about half.

Things I’m proud of:

-       I encountered (and survived) my first ‘mean girls’ experience.

-       My kids are happier and healthier than ever.

-       I have healed so much of my relationship with my mom.

Things I’m looking forward to:

-       I have a new group coaching program starting in February that has already launched and has a couple of slots filled

-       I have four anthology books planned for this year as well as two third party books I get the joy of editing and publishing.

-       Currently working on creating a self-guided family wellness program from the ‘Purpose for Kids Club’.

-       We have a new co-host for “A Little Perspective” podcast and so many amazing guests from various marginalized communities.

-       I already have paid speaking engagements scheduled for this year with so many other opportunities on the horizon.

Failure is only a bad thing if you allow it to stop your growth. Failure is not only not a bad thing, but it is absolutely necessary in order to have maximum growth and opportunity. If you do not allow yourself to take risks, then you won’t reach your potential. If you do not take your L’s and move along to the next thing, then you won’t reach your potential. If you wallow and play the victim, you won’t reach your potential.
Keep putting yourself out there. Keep taking chances and trying. Keep failing. Fail Forward. Fail Often.
