Ep. 62: End of Year Vision Casting That Feels Expansive Instead of Exhausting

We're getting ready to close out 2025 and step into 2026, which means vision casting season is here. But before you start setting a million goals that you'll feel like crap about not hitting, we need to talk about the difference between goals and objectives. Goals are specific, time-bound, results-driven. They aim for a destination and if you don't hit it, you can feel like a failure. Objectives are broader, flexible, focused on the journey and the learning along the way. They keep your hands open to magic you didn't even see coming. This episode is our full download on how we do vision casting and annual planning with our teams, why we celebrate before we strategize, why you don't need to plan the whole year in one meeting, and how to create space for your team to dream instead of just checking boxes.🔥 In This Episode:The metrics we actually track in our practices and what we do with that data to inform where we're going nextThe homework we give our team before vision casting so they come prepared to celebrate and dreamHow to structure the meeting so it feels expansive instead of suffocating, and why the order actually mattersHow to break your vision down from big picture objectives into quarterly focus and then monthly actionable stepsThe invitation to loosen your grip on outcomes and celebrate the humans in front of you instead of just checking boxesIf you're someone who sets goals and then beats yourself up when life happens and things shift, this episode is your permission slip to loosen your grip. Celebrate where you've been, understand where you are, and dream about where you want to go. That's what vision casting is actually supposed to be.Connect with us:Instagram: @drsaranelsongray, @dr.marisa.nicole10, @theheartworkpodcastEmail: [email protected] our Free Self Love Challenge PDFSupport the show
