In this cozy, reflective episode of This Changes Everything, Sarah invites you to slow down, grab a notebook and a warm drink, and join her in wrapping up the year with intention. Instead of worrying about resolutions, Sarah shares simple, meaningful ways to reflect on 2024 and align your energy for the year ahead.

Through thoughtful journal prompts—like uncovering what brought you joy, what drained you, and the lessons you want to carry forward—you’ll explore how to set intentions that truly resonate with your values. Sarah also offers practical tips, from morning rituals to habit stacking, to help you create sustainable growth (with plenty of room for messiness and self-compassion along the way).

Take a deep breath, get cozy, and let’s step into 2025 with clarity and care. This is your moment to embrace gentle, intentional growth—no resolutions required.

Sarah’s prompts for reflecting and realigning:

    1.    What brought me joy this year? — Think small moments, not just big milestones.

    2.    What drained my energy? — Relationships, commitments, habits—be honest.

    3.    What’s one thing I’m proud of? — Even if no one else noticed.

    4.    What’s one hard lesson I learned? — Growth often comes wrapped in discomfort.

    5.    What—or who—do I need to let go of? — Sometimes releasing creates space for better things.
