Making Meaning of the Year You've Had

Have you ever felt that sense of panic as the year winds down, thinking of all the things you hoped to have accomplished by now that are still items on a long-forgotten to-do list? I've been there too. Turns out, setting a bunch of goals around what we think we ought to be doing based on others' definitions of success isn't going to get us anywhere. Anywhere healthy, at least.

After years of experimenting with different approaches to reflection and goal-setting, I'm happy to share the one that's helped me achieve most of what I set out to do in all aspects of my life without feeling overwhelmed, burnt out or resentful. Staying connected to your values, priorities, and purpose is a crucial part of this. So whether you're looking for a more intentional way to begin your year, or a resource to help you set and achieve goals that mean something, begin here.

This 5-part guided reflection exercise will help you:

• Give yourself the space to focus on your growth and well-being
• Make sense of the year that passed, synthesising your learnings and observations
• Get feedback from the right people
• Identify your values and tie them to meaningful goals that speak to your various priorities in life
• End the year with gratitude for what you have

Designed to be an immersive, calming experience, this resource features original photography and a linked playlist to guide you into a place of stillness.
