BE A GOAL GETTER
This episode I talk about being the curator of your own life experience. I talk about making the most of what you got instead of looking around at what everyone else is doing. And to get to the point, I talk about setting goals and intentions.
I talk about Passion Planning and creating your own roadmap to the life you want. It's an easy exercise to do and SO IMPACTFUL.
I created a FREE99 workshop guiding you through the exercise with the downloadable worksheet. And if you're anything like me, I still need a planner (they have paper + digital versions). If you decide to purchase one use the code MALAYAMADE to get 10% off.
Do it, it's a game changer. Literally. It even teaches you hoe to create Game Changers.
Oh Ariana Trinidad, you changed my life. If I can buy you a drink one day, let me know 😉 Until then, I will forever use the Passion Planner + this amazing exercise to steer my ship. I hope you all do it too!
Now go make some intentions that will bring out the highest expression of yourself and FUCK the rest.
You got this.
