Level Up Your Lists: To-Do, To-Da, To-Done and To-Be Lists ** Part 2 | Ep. 56

Welcome back to "Plan Goal Plan!" In this second part of the two-episode series, Danielle delves deeper into the delightful world of to-do lists, infusing joy and play into your planning process. Do you love making lists, but lately you find that you make the list and then promptly forget about it? Or you keep adding items to your list but you don’t get them done and now you feel all icky about yourself so you’ve just stopped making lists? Danielle's got you covered!
In Part 1, we explored why to-do lists are crucial and discussed best practices to make them effective. Now, get ready for the fun part! Join us as we introduce three fantastic list types: the Ta-Da list, the To-Done list, and the To-Be list. 
First up, the Ta-Da list celebrates your accomplishments, big and small. Second, the To-Done list captures what you do each day, instilling a sense of pride and motivation on challenging days. For those struggling with anxiety or self-trust, a To-Done list becomes a powerful tool to rebuild confidence, recording daily achievements and fostering encouragement.
While To-Do lists keep us organized and focused, we propose going beyond actions and incorporating a To-Be list. Embrace the intention of being bold, focused, compassionate, or responsive throughout the day, elevating your mindset and emotional responses.
Want to step off that hamster wheel and reclaim your time with ease? Listen in for proven techniques to manage your to-do lists effectively. Embrace the joy of celebration, the power of accomplishments, and the intentionality of being.

Do You Need to Dismantle Your Habits and Routines So That You Can Fizz With Possibility? | Ep. 49

I was reading the book Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano and this paragraph made me catch my breath, it reads:
“After they made love that night, they slept naked for the the first time since they were young. They were dismantling their habits and routines and it was like pulling up floorboards and finding joy underneath."
What are the floorboards you need to pull up? Do you have habits or routines that you created because you thought that’s what you should do? You thought they were what was holding you up but underneath there was joy. 
In this episode, I encourage you to locate the the routines or habits that are your shoulds. Where are you trying harder and maybe you need to try easier? Could it be that pushing makes you flat, and you need to fizz? Bubble? Pop? 
I wish for you bravery--that you might let go of a should in a way that makes you proud of yourself, in a way that presses upon you and makes you fizz with possibility.
