Ever set a goal that looked great on paper but left you feeling frustrated, guilty, or just plain stuck? We've all been there. Too often, we chase "should" goals or tuck away "someday" goals—while the ones God is actually calling us toward remain buried. This week on Nourished to Bloom, we're flipping the script and learning how to set Soul Goals—the kind that grow out of God's whispers, align with our gifts, and require His help to flourish. Here's what we're digging into together: ✨ Why typical goal-setting leaves us empty — and how to stop chasing pressure-driven "shoulds" 🌱 The three kinds of goals:  • Someday Goals — dreamy but always pushed to the backburner  • Should Goals — fueled by comparison and outside voices  • Soul Goals — birthed from prayer and rooted in God's unique call on our lives 🍞 The Loaves & Fishes model (Matthew 14:19): Jesus blesses, breaks, and shares—just like He does with our gifts and even our brokenness 💡 How to spot a Soul Goal: it excites you and scares you at the same time—holy boldness in action! 📝 A simple 5-step roadmap for setting goals with God instead of by yourself And remember this: even what feels small or broken in your story can be multiplied in God's hands. 💛 📣 Ready for your next step? 👉 Download your FREE Middle Motherhood Planner 👉 Book a complimentary Life Audit & Clarity Session with Kara to uncover your unique Soul Goals Let's step into courage together, offering our loaves, our fishes, and even our broken pieces—trusting that God will do more than we can imagine. 🌸
