Happy New Year, friend! Welcome back to the very first episode of 2025! This episode is all about kicking off 2025 with purpose, excitement, and a plan to live fully into the life God has for you. If you’re someone who starts January with big goals but loses steam by February, don’t worry. This year is going to be different.   Today, we’re not just setting a resolution but building a foundation. I’m going to help you shape this year with clarity, courage, and connection so you can finally feel aligned with your dreams, your values, and your faith.  Timestamps: (01:12) - Getting Clear on What You Want (and Why It’s Totally Important) (02:15) - Making  2025 Your Year of Action-Packed Awesomeness (04:18 - Redefining Failure: Let’s Rock 2025 with Confidence (07:40) - Building Connections That Truly Matter (08:54) - Finding Joy in the Journey (Because Life’s Too Short Not To) (14:31) - My Must-Have Recommendations for an Amazing 2025 Action Steps: Write down three things you want more of this year.

The fitted H&M Fitted T-shirt look good enough to be worn alone or under a blazer. I probably have four of every color!   I found a collagen I really love, and love it so much I can put it in plain water and drink it. I don’t mess with flavors anymore. It’s Bulletproof Collagen Peptides.   I found a mascara that I love! As of right now, Mile High Club Mascara is my new favorite and is in the top tier category.    WATCH NOW on  YouTube   Links to great things we discussed :  H&M Fitted T-shirt DryMove Long Sleeved Shirt Bulletproof Collagen Peptides  Mile High Club Mascara  Create a Course Alli Worthington on YouTube Remaining You While Raising Them Little Things Studio Hope you loved this episode!  Make sure to hit that subscribe button on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
