PLANNING FOR THE NEW YEAR — AND YOU’RE INVITED

As the final episode of the year, we’re pulling back the curtain on one of the most impactful rhythms in our marriage: our annual goal-setting meeting. This isn’t just about finances - it’s a intentional conversation that helps us align as individuals, as a couple, and as a family heading into a new year. In this episode, we share the exact categories we walk through, why we started this tradition, and how it’s transformed our communication, accountability, and unity over time.We talk through real, honest goals around faith, marriage, family, friendships, finances, home life, giving, health & fitness, and business, including practical examples like protecting time for date nights, reducing phone distractions, teaching kids the value of money, prioritizing sleep and recovery, and being more intentional with friendships and generosity. If you’ve ever felt like you and your spouse were running in parallel, but not together, this episode will give you language and structure to realign.Whether you’re married with young kids, navigating busy seasons, or simply craving deeper conversations with your partner, this episode offers encouragement and a repeatable framework you can adapt to your own relationship. We also share how you can create your own version of this annual meeting and why small, consistent alignment can make a massive difference over time.Click on the link to our Stan Store below to get a free copy of our Annual Goal Planning Template!00:00 Introduction and Overview00:19 Annual Financial Meeting Tradition00:59 The Importance of Communication03:56 Categories and Goals for the New Year04:51 Faith Goals for 202606:56 Marriage Goals for 202609:11 Family Goals for 202612:09 Friendship Goals for 202614:08 Financial Goals for 202615:31 Home and Philanthropy Goals for 202617:23 Health and Fitness Goals for 202621:00 Business Goals for 202624:34 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsFollow us on socials: InstagramSign up for our newsletter! TikTokYouTube
