Description: Helloooo and welcome back! You already know I am going to shamelessly ask you to leave a podcast review. It’s free info that can literally change your biz, training and life - hopefully for the better. So if you can, please head over to iTunes and give your girl 5 stars + a written review. It really does help more than you know. Much love either way.  Whether you’re new here or not, I am coming back from a one month hiatus from The FitsPRO Podcast. Ever since starting my biz, it was very appealing to me to take the holidays off. And the last two years (being 2019 and 2020) I was able to do that for the most part. With that, myself and my assistant worked pretty freaking hard behind the scenes in October, November and into the beginning of December. I needed a break. The hubs and I took an impromptu three week getaway - which proved to be even more needed than I knew. And something that brought be joy during that time was knowing I didn’t have to record any podcasts for January. It’s important to understand that this sentence doesn’t mean the podcast is bad. Or I don’t like it. On the contrary. I missed creating for the podcast this month. I’m a verbal processor and enjoy educating + giving actionable steps. Perhaps it’s true that the podcast was a source of energy and time drain in my life and biz. But that just goes to show that sometimes good things need a break. Sometimes we can or need to choose to let go of good things in order to create space. Or just REST. Right? Like not everything has to give us more space to create. Sometimes we can just say no to freaking say no. To do nothing. Or to play or have fun or do seemingly meaningless things. Which aren’t really meaningless because they’re serving a purpose. Or joy or rest, or fun. Fact remains, I needed space and rest. And podcasts are on the bottom of the food chain when talking financials and revenue in my business. So, what happened in the first month of 2021 with the 8 hours I cleared up via not podcasting? That’s what today’s show is all about. You see, my 2021 goals journal didn’t come until midway through the month. That matters for me. I am a person who very much so relies on clarity, the vision and having a birds eye view of everything in my biz. I feel scattered and unproductive without this. So for me, January was all about intention behind the scenes. I reflected more on 2020 once my journal came. I sat down and via a colleague in my “not a mastermind” as we call it, gave me some pretty foundational work to do in my biz. Getting clear on: The mission The vision The purpose The company culture What we deliver, our offers Expectations Values Social missions and/or giving back Protocols and more This is the deep work of biz, if you will. You’ll find, in life or in business, that we have phases of transformation. It’s like shedding a layer of skin. And I very much so feel this in my current stage of business. It sounds so...idk, woo woo. But I was and am in a stage of “becoming.” And that requires space, intention and time. And while the things I listed above, I know, to some extent. Some more concrete than others. It felt right to pull back into my cave, without distraction, and get into the nitty gritty. These are not yet complete but are very important to me and are in the process for sure. And thus, I have a word for 2021. Side note - I don’t do words. I’ve actually posted on socials about the fact that I get more and will get more done than people who have a word for the year. Because I’m an action taker. I just do the things. No time for words. But that’s not true. My point was that words in the absence of action are useless. So, my mom shared her word for the year with me and it was like fireworks, and math equations and rainbows went off in my brain. Her word was EXACTLY what I’d been feeling. “Detached”
