I have to say, after the word “pivot” everything sounded like an episode of Friends 😂 it’s stronger than me lol Happy New Year!!!

I struggle a lot with cooking at home, so meal prepping and cooking videos would be so helpful!
Very excited for all the new content to come!

I found that doing grocery and out the house tasks on a weekday can be a good way to avoid crowds (I’m aware it not possible for everyone), it means some work needs to be moved to the weekend or evens but it works really well for me.

I love sitting down with my journal at the end of the year and reflect on the highlights of the past year. I find that it helps me start the new year at a place of gratitude!

[audrey]

Hey this was really helpful thanks Caitlin. Happy new year 🥳

[TheSeatedView]

Thanks for this and all your other videos. It's been a pleasure spending part of my year with you.

[sugaudacity]

i recently started watching your videos and i love them!! :)) you are such a great speaker, your videos are always so concise and organized, and I love your humor

[shoehornhandz]

I’ve watched you all the way from my pre-university days, into my life as a working adult, and I continue to adore you videos. Thank you! Your energy is radiant.

[Katelyn]

Thank you for the helpful tips and also for your honesty in your own process. Makes me feel like I'm not alone. Looking forward to making my new 2022 vision board this week!

Happy new year! Thank you for being so honest in your Christmas Vlog. I really appreciated that. I just had a similar, kinda rough New Year's and it was refreshing and encouraging to see some honesty on Social media. ❤️ here's to a great year in 2022!

I really loved the part about motivation: there are times when you have a serious lack of motivation, and those are the times you need to find what works best for you to keep going and not losing focus!

[suecathcart]

Thanks, I loved this, as always - happy new year - plus the milanote I've just signed up - it looks really interesting - I thought it was going to be expensive but it looks like the free version will suffice.

I'm going to try monthly goals over weekly. Some weeks are just rough and I hope the pressure of knowing I have time to complete goals will help. Also taking the do less for a goal thing as well. I have the urge to want to read a lot of books, but I'm setting the goal at 10 because that is more reasonable. Setting myself up for success instead of failure.

You brought up some really good points in this video, I really liked the idea of pairing an activity with something you enjoy like the meal prepping!

[emmykathryn]

I think it is very important to admit the realities of goal setting/keeping. I know that I have been that person that will stop or pause for a long time on a goal that I feel I have not made progress on or completely failed at. I like the idea of quality over quantity, even though you were applying it to your book reading. I think I can apply that to a few goals of mine and look at them with more intention. One of mine is finances, which is something that always intimidates me. I always start then lose track along the way during the year. I think a little more of a realistic approach is good for me and some goal breakdowns month-to-month. Thank you for always offering inspiring content and making it relateable! Happy 2022!

[HelloimCindy]

Great tips 🥰. Thank you so much! I’m off to set my goals now.

For 2021 I kept a "Year Milestones" page in my bullet journal, and every time something happened that made me feel like I had accomplished a thing, I wrote it there. I filled over half the page and felt pretty great at the end of the year. Definitely something I'll be carrying over to 2022.

I have been searching for something free where I could create a vision board like this! I keep getting the same paid site. Thanks for this. It worked perfectly and the free version seems to work for the things I need it for.
