In this reflective and grounding conversation, Shannon and Kristy explore the significance of choosing a word for the year as a guiding principle for personal growth, intentional living, and spiritual alignment. IShannon shares her New Year Word from last year, what she learned from the entire experience and how it shaped her growth across key areas of life - including relationships, business, finances, and inner stability.This episode emphasizes the importance of facing fears with honesty, following divine guidance, and committing to personal development with intention rather than pressure. Kristy and Shannon share how assigning a single word for the New Year can act as an anchor throughout the year - offering clarity during uncertainty, direction in decision-making, and encouragement during seasons of stretching, rebuilding, and refining.They invite listeners to slow down, reflect deeply, and prayerfully or intentionally choose their own word for the year as a meaningful practice of alignment and growth. If you’re seeking personal growth, intentional living, faith-led guidance, or a reflective practice to carry into the year ahead, this episode offers gentle insight and encouragement to move forward with purpose. A powerful conversation for anyone ready to live with intention, trust divine timing, and grow from a grounded place. If this conversation stirred something in you - if you’re noticing a desire to stop abandoning yourself and start living with deeper intention.If you’re ready to show up for yourself, shift old patterns and habits that no longer serve you, and intentionally choose who you are becoming - this invitation is for you!We’re hosting a Word of the Year Masterclass designed to help you choose a word that is not only inspirational, but instructional - one that guides your decisions, supports daily alignment, and helps you create simple systems to grow one percent better each day.By the end of year, you won’t just be setting intentions, you’ll be embodying the identity of the woman you desire to live as.To receive the details for this year’s masterclass, complete the Google Form.
