The one word that will guide me this year

At the beginning of most years, I set an intent for the year ahead. One word that will focus my energy and guide me.?
My word for 2024 was Adventure – referring to both having ‘adventures’ and remembering that life is an adventure. My intent was to approach work and play with a sense of adventure, have fun, be playful and stretch my boundaries.
The year kicked off with a three-week family holiday in New Zealand, many other adventures followed, some planned and others not!?
What I didn’t know at the beginning of 2024 was that a massive amount of courage would be needed - more courage than I have needed for the last decade. Courage in my personal life, in my career, and in my most important relationships. It was a big year – a very big year!
This year, I would like more adventure - adventures that challenge me, and also have a sense of calm and flow…?

So my word for 2025 is FlowVenture - Adventure with a sense of ease!
‘Ease’ doesn’t mean backing down or taking the easy way. For me this year, this means:
What’s your one-word for this year? Questions that may work better for you might be ‘what is your intent for the year?’ or ’what does this 2025 represent for you?’.
I would love to hear your thoughts and intent for 2025, so please hit ‘reply’ and let me know.
Go Fearlessly – with adventure and flow! - Corrinne
PS Bart likes the idea of FlowVenture too. (He’s not keen on anything that feels like hard work!) This picture is us in flow before one of our January adventures!

1 个月Love the question “What could this look like if it flowed with ease?” How often do we do things the hard way, or fail to look for the path of least resistance, somehow believing that in order for it to be worthwhile, it has to be hard work? I am going to borrow that question when I find myself bogged down.
