Reimagining Goals & Choosing Me

Let’s talk about goals.

There was a season where I wasn’t just missing my goals, I couldn’t even name them. And when I finally slowed down enough to ask myself what I wanted, a quieter question followed: Do I even have it in me to go after them?

Truth is, I had spent years helping other people reach their goals. I was good at it. Comfortable there. Supporting, encouraging, showing up. But as my kids grew older and needed me less, I started to notice something uncomfortable, I wasn’t just setting my goals aside. I wasn’t even allowing myself to think about them. Somewhere along the way, helping others became easier than choosing myself.

And I reached a point where I didn’t just have to bring it back to me, I wanted to.

So yes, now I have goals again. A whole list of them. Some are small and practical. Some are bold and life-changing. And honestly? No matter how big or small they are, there’s still a voice that wonders if I can actually pull them off. I look at people who seem so confident, so certain they’ll hit every goal they set, and I think, what must that feel like?

Then comes the other thought: I’m not young. This isn’t a rehearsal. It feels like it’s time to step on the gas and stop circling the same questions. And I’m realizing this, if I can learn to think like someone who believes nothing is impossible, I could change everything on my wish list in a year.

So here it is. Right here. Right now.

I’m becoming the kind of person who follows through on the goals she sets. I’m starting small. I’m choosing daily, attainable goals that build confidence instead of fear. And one year from now, I’ll look back, not amazed that I did something extraordinary, but surprised by how possible it all was. How small changes, done consistently, led to big, meaningful wins.

This is the Reimagined Journey. And I’m finally walking it on purpose.
