The Problem With How We Set Goals: A softer path to the life you want, with far less effort

As the year comes to a close, let's reflect on how much emphasis we tend to place on goals and resolutions—and how often that process is rooted in a feeling of lack. I talk about how marketing frequently taps into our sense of inadequacy, convincing us that we’re missing something and need fixing.In this episode, I invite you to step away from decisions made from lack and instead choose an abundant, whole perspective. I share a simple three-step mini-workshop to help shift your emotional state: reflecting on how far you’ve already come, working with subconscious practices to change your inner energy, and setting goals that genuinely spark joy and excitement rather than pressure.I also explore why community, mentorship, and guidance matter so much when it comes to personal growth. As we move into a new year, I encourage you to consider who and what will best support you on your path—so you can create a life that feels more expansive, grounded, and joyful. Come to my free workshop: https://www.coachcrystal.ca/workshop2025Join our next retreat in April 2026, register here: www.coachcrystal.ca/manifest-me-retreat   Connect With MeSubstack: https://substack.com/@itscrystalnoelle Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/its.crystal.noelle Website: https://www.coachcrystal.ca Program: www.coachcrystal.ca/creationroom  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
