You're Setting Goals Wrong | EP 111
Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work, your dream life still feels out of reach? Like year after year, you set big goals but end up in the same place? On this special episode of Unknown and Talented, I’m reflecting on my 34th birthday and the lessons I’ve learned about chasing goals, building habits, and shifting your mindset.
What I’ve realized is that success isn’t about the size of your goals—it’s about the mindset you carry while pursuing them. In this episode, I break down four powerful mindset shifts that will change the way you approach your goals, your habits, and even the way you see yourself. From learning how to set smaller, more achievable milestones, to breaking free from fear and feelings, to sacrificing comfort for your calling—you’ll discover practical shifts that can help you move closer to the life you’ve always dreamed of.
Whether you’re building a business, creating content, or simply trying to grow as a person, this conversation is packed with motivation, real-life stories, and encouragement to keep going.
