The concept of New Year's resolutions has started to fade away over the last several years, not necessarily meaning that we can't set resolutions, but they tend to be a bit more on the vague side. Whereas goals are much more specific. 


People have been leaning into the idea of finding a word or phrase that helps set their intentions for the year and what they want to focus on.


I felt really called to share and take you a little bit more behind the scenes with this episode. So I’m going to be sharing my focus and the words that I've chosen to guide me as my main intentions through the entire year of 2022. I’m going to explain why I've chosen these two words, why they're important to me, how I use them to guide me throughout this New Year.


I’m also sharing how they can be beneficial for you, not that you have to borrow these words specifically and make them your focus or intention for the year, but you can use these examples to guide and inspire you to really consider these concepts and how beneficial they may be for you, but also to inspire you to find your own words and set intentions for the New Year. 



In this episode, I’m sharing with you:


  • Resolutions or intentions?
  • Why I prefer to set goals and choose words of the year
  • Reflect on 2021
  • My words of 2022
  • Simplicity - in life and business
  • How to focus and implement our intention with these words
  • Obedience - initial resistance when this word came up
  • Taking time to reflect and look at the big picture and work through resistance
  • Simplifying the things around you, in all areas 
  • Leaning into the thoughts and feelings these words bring up
  • Why I had such resistance to obedience
  • It wasn’t just obedience I was being called to, but a calling to focus on being obedient to God and building that relationship with him further
  • Making my relationship with God a priority through obedience
  • When God comes first, all of the other things just come along with it
  • You get to create the life you want and desire
  • If it feels difficult to do on your own and you want support, reach out and book a Clarity Call with me here.
