Summary

Today on Live Well Anyway, MacKenzie and Katie back to talk all about looking forward to the New Year with hope and how to approach our planning and goal setting in light of all the uncertainty of our times. MacKenzie lays out her step by step method of planning and challenges Katie (and us!) to follow these steps to set goals for new habits and routines in 2021.

Brain Dump: assess where you currently are in different areas of your life.
Envision: think about the life you want to have and what practices are going to get you there.
Practices vs. Projects: consider what are the building blocks of your daily life as opposed to one-time tasks that will facilitate your daily practices.
Back Up Plan: decide what are you base level things that you need to do even on the days when everything else falls apart.
Track Your Progress: write down what you have done to have a record of your progress in even the small steps.
Come Together: find accountability with a friend or group of people to help keep you on track and give you perspective.

0:00.0	Welcome to Live Well Anyway. I'm your host, Mackenzie Kappa, formerly of Cultivating the Lovely, and on this podcast, we focus on wellness, beauty, style, planning, and life.
0:20.5	I feature both a fun mix of guests who I've invited as well as some hopefully helpful and humorous solo shows centered on things I've learned in my own life.
0:28.3	And today, you guys, we are just days away from 2021.
0:33.7	Who else is pumped?
0:35.6	I mean, I love New Year's anyway.
0:37.7	It is my favorite holiday of the year.
0:40.6	I love the planning and the prepping and the fresh start and all of the things about New Year's.

0:48.3	But this year, I think it's more exciting than any other year.

1:23.2	book recommendations and all kinds of stuff. I'm actually challenging Katie to this process.
1:29.1	So we are walking through it together. It is a lot of the information that I shared in my
1:33.7	recent webinar. If you missed it, here it is, ladies, for you to be able to access free on the
1:40.1	podcast. And if you want the PDF guide or the Trello template that I talk about in this episode,
1:45.7	then you're going to want to head over to mackenziecopa.substack.com and sign up for my weekly
1:51.2	newsletter. Just by signing up, you're going to be able to get those things straight into your
1:55.3	inbox and be able to start utilizing them for your planning right away. I hope this show is really helpful and
