6 Powerful Questions to Plan a 2026 You’ll Love | 13
Dec 15, 2025Before you write a single goal for 2026, there’s one question I highly recommend you ask yourself:
Is this even my desire… or is it what I think I “should” want?
In this solo episode, Julie invites you to pause the traditional planning process and go deeper. Instead of starting with to-do lists and revenue targets, she walks you through six powerful reflective questions to reconnect with what you truly desire – the kind of desire that becomes the fuel that carries you through the ‘wall-kicker’ days.
If you’ve ever shamed yourself for not sticking to a routine, falling off your goals by February, or still having the “same” dream on your list year after year, this conversation will feel like a loving wake-up call.
In this episode Julie explores:
- Why desire is your true fuel – and how to know if it’s real or just “should energy”
- The difference between goals that look good on paper and desires that are actually yours
- The 6 reflective questions she asks herself before setting any business or life goals
- How to spot your “this is where I usually stop” pattern and shift your identity instead of just your strategy
- What changes when you ask, “What would I love?” instead of “What should I do?”
- The ripple effect on yourself, your family, your clients, and the world when you don’t stop this time
Whether you’re listening in December, mid-year, or at a random Tuesday turning point, you can use this episode as a guided reset to design a year – and a life – that you genuinely love living.
