44: Goal Setting: What really goes into it?

In this week’s episode, Erin and Rachel are tackling the topic of goals. They discuss why it is important to set realistic goals and not some grandiose goal that is seemingly impossible. The girls also say that sometimes goals are just big dreams that people will never take action on. Erin and Rachel have a lot to say about how others can affect our goals. They believe that we allow others to sway what we should set as goals or what we should want in life. But, in reality, we need to do what is our passion, or fulfills us, or is ideal for the life we want to live. The girls also dive into how setbacks and failure are necessary when reaching for goals. These are what allow us to look at our goals, reevaluate as needed and get to where we ultimately want to go. Here are some highlights: The girls’ take on Vision Boards What society tells us matters Finding your soul’s calling Action steps needed to reach goals How fear can hold us back The need to have an honest conversation with yourself Let’s take a listen!
