How I Plan My Year (And a Free Tool to Help You Plan Yours)

January planning can feel like writing a wish list that never survives February. You set the goals, create the spreadsheet, then watch real life slowly erode every intention you had.

This episode shares the 5-step framework that's replaced vague annual planning with something that actually sticks. From choosing one single-minded focus to blocking your non-negotiables before anyone else claims your calendar.

Plus, there's a free spreadsheet to map it all out yourself.
