Harness the New Year energy

Have you started thinking about your goals for 2025 yet??

Many of us are racing toward the new year, eager to leave 2024 behind. It’s tempting to hope that a fresh calendar will erase the exhaustion, stress, and challenges we faced over the last 12 months.?

But if we rush forward without pausing, we miss a crucial opportunity. To truly step into 2025 with energy, we need to reflect on 2024 — to celebrate the wins, acknowledge the setbacks, and learn the lessons that will shape our future selves.

This year didn’t go as planned for me. What was meant to be a “long-service leave” year of reconnection and exploration took unexpected turns: grief, disruption, and unforeseen challenges tested me in ways I hadn’t anticipated.?

Yet, through this adversity, I discovered new depths within myself. The challenges didn’t define me — they helped me grow. As Rumi so wisely said, ? ?

“The wound is the place where the light enters you.”?

Reflection can feel intimidating, but it’s not about fault-finding. It’s about honest growth. When we pause and reflect, we get to ask: Who do I want to be in 2025??

Here are 3 questions to guide a constructive reflection session:?

1. What achievement are you most proud of from 2024? What led to your success in this situation? We often focus on what went wrong (blame our ‘negative default mode’ for that!). This question helps you celebrate your wins and recognize the routines that worked — so you can repeat them in 2025. ?
2. What’s one thing you wish had gone differently? What did you learn from it? Things don’t always go to plan, and that’s okay. For me, I learned I often hold space for everyone else’s emotions. But constantly holding things together is exhausting and doesn’t serve anyone. As a mentor once said, “With breakdowns come breakthroughs! Let others have their own!”? ?
3. What drained your energy the most in 2024? How can you limit this in 2025? Be specific — was it a person, a situation, or a habit? For me, my ‘arranger’ mindset kept me awake planning a family trip. My mind wouldn’t switch off, and it ate into my sleep.?

Take a deep breath, give yourself grace, and let’s squeeze the goodness out of this year. You deserve to step into 2025 rested, energized, and inspired.?

Let’s get started! ?
