This week, I’m reflecting on the power of intentional planning—especially when it comes to content creation. Staying clear and focused on my goals has not only helped me move my business forward but has also made a huge difference in how I connect with my audience. Here are a few wins worth celebrating: 1️⃣ Signed a Client! By focusing on my January goals and aligning them with my planning process, I welcomed a new client this week! Intentional planning keeps me grounded and moving in the right direction. 2️⃣ Podcast Guesting Timeline Ready. I’ve officially set up my timeline for podcast guesting! 🎙️ Having this plan in place means I can strategically share my message with amazing audiences and continue spreading the word about building sustainable businesses. 3️⃣ Newsletter Wins on LinkedIn. Since I updated the format of my newsletter to be more intentional and aligned with what my audience needs, I’ve seen a big jump in open rates! 🎉 Knowing my content is resonating and reaching more people feels so rewarding. 4️⃣ G.A.P. Sheet Driving Content Clarity Updating my Goal Action Pathway sheet has not only given me clarity on my goals but also helped me map out my content strategy. By breaking down my goals into actionable steps, I’ve been able to plan content that’s purposeful, impactful, and aligned with my vision for 2025. Intentional planning is such a game-changer for staying consistent and delivering value to your audience. 👇I’d love to hear how planning has helped you with your content creation or other areas of your business—share your wins in the comments! 💬

I’ve been using Sara Torpey’s journaling for money and growth since the beginning of September. She recommends a three part process with the last part being about who I am becoming. I’ve finally landed at “becoming someone who helps enough people get what they want” as my usual third step. It’s been a great way to start my day with the end in mind.
