Unnecessary Things: Goals

ACCESSMORE
About this episode

This week we are discussing Unnecessary Things: Goals

Goal setting as a single parent can feel overwhelming, shame filled, and down right unnecessary. We already have so many pressures in life, why add more at the beginning of the year? Shouldn’t we start off the year filled with hope and joy about what’s to come? So how can we reframe goal setting to fit more of the single parent lifestyle and feel better about ourselves in the long run?

Today, we cover three main points:
1) Top barriers to goal setting for single parents
2) Reframing how we think about goals
3) Real life examples of how to live this out
