In this episode, I walk you through how to plan 2026 with God intentionally and practically — not emotionally, not based on social media trends, but rooted in wisdom and discipline.

We’ll talk about:

• How to identify the areas God is actually calling you to grow in

• How to limit your focus so you don’t overwhelm yourself

• How to break big goals into daily, sustainable habits

• Why your “why” determines whether you quit in March

• The tools and accountability that make consistency possible

If you’re tired of setting goals that never last, this is your reset.

2026 will not be different unless you plan it differently.
