Feeling stuck? Try this prompt to reset and refocus for 2025


Do you think slowing down means you’re a slacker and lazy, Reader?

January can often feel overwhelming. We start with big plans, but post-holiday blues get you down and you lose focus and momentum by February.

If that’s how you’re feeling, maybe this prompt will help you regain clarity and focus:

What’s 1 thing I can release today?

Don’t censor yourself when answering this.

Just write down everything that comes up. Handwriting with pen and paper is best, because it allows all your thoughts and feelings to flow more easily, in a stream of consciousness style.

This is how you’ll find golden nuggets of insights.

With clarity comes confidence.

If you’re ready for a reset, click here to book your 30-minute MAP Experience Session. I use MAP to help moms release the overwhelm and stress so they can find relief, gain mental clarity and emotional calmness to focus on what's most important.

P.S. I 'resorted' to meditation 10 years ago. I say resorted because I used to think meditation was a complete waste of my time. But actually, it helped me feel so much better, to the point that I could take baby steps to improve the state of my time, energy, relationships and money situations. That eventually led me to be a certified MAP coach. I wanted to go in-depth to learn everything about MAP and mastering my mind and emotions. Eventually, I started sharing MAP with other moms to help them let go of overwhelm so they can regain focus. It's been a life-changer. If you want to try it, book a MAP Experience session with me.

If you're newer here, welcome. Here's what you need to know Everything I write and record now lives on Substack, not here. So before I make this the permanent home base for new subscribers, I wanted you to hear it directly. I help women build financial independence through their career, and through income of their own....

$1k/month isn’t life-changing money. But it’s transformational. It’s proof that the skills and experience you already have are enough to start, without quitting your job, without burning out, without a five-year plan. New here? Start with the worksheet "What's your $1k skill?" Download it here.

Most people are taught to build their lives around one source of income. Go to school. Get a good job. Work hard. Stay loyal. And everything will work out. I believed that too. Then life taught me otherwise. My husband and I shut down a business and were left with a six-figure debt. I returned to corporate life to recover. Shortly after, I was laid off while I was the sole provider for my family. That experience changed how I think about work forever. Not because jobs are bad. I've spent...
