Girlfriends, Episode number 18, How to Set and Achieve Your Goals.

Hello and welcome to Girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom, and I'm on a mission to help you know

your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy in family living. So what are we

waiting for? Let's get started.

Hey, everybody. How are you? Good that you're back here with me for another episode of

girlfriends. I'm so happy that you're here. So this week we're talking about goal setting,

not necessarily, you know, talking about career goals. Of course, that's included. But just about

what our goal is in life, kind of take that step back sometimes. and how am I organizing my life? Does it actually

make sense for what I hope to be achieving? You know, ultimately, we all want to get to heaven.

We all want to be a saint, you know. So as general as that, but then kind of working our way

backwards from there, that how do I do that in this particular phase of my life? How should I be

spending my time under these
