In this solo episode, I’m sharing the exact 12 week sprint system that completely changed how I set and complete my goals.


Instead of giving myself an entire year to “figure it out,” I learned that shrinking the timeline created clarity, urgency, and momentum. I walk you through how I choose my goals, break them down into manageable weekly actions, and build in a recalculation rule that allows for real life instead of an idealized version of it.

If you have ever started the year motivated only to feel your goals quietly drift away by February, this episode gives you a simple and realistic framework you can start using right now.


In This Episode, I Share:

  • Why yearly goal setting gives side hustlers too much room to procrastinate and how 12 week sprints create clarity and momentum
  • How I choose just three goals per sprint with one clear focus per month
  • The simple way I break monthly goals into realistic weekly tasks that actually get done
  • Why daily five minute reviews and one weekly self accountability day keep my goals from drifting
  • The recalculation rule that helps me keep going when life gets messy without guilt or quitting
