The Year-End Checkpoint: Are You Focused on What Really Matters?
Camille Preston, PhD, PCC
Business Psychologist, Leadership Expert, Author, Executive Coach
As 2024 fades into the background, we’re left with a rare opportunity to find stillness. The holiday chaos and “end-of-year” intensity contrasts with this delightful lull, inviting us in to explore the tension.
End of year is a natural checkpoint—a chance to step back, recalibrate, and figure out if you’re actually running in the right direction.? Failing to pause, you risk charging headfirst into January with the same old habits, momentum, and, let’s face it, exhaustion.
As I mentioned in the article, Growth Through Reflection: Looking Back to Look Forward, we need the right conditions—time, space, and air to breathe—to evolve into something new, unexpected, and beautiful.
So, before you head into January, ask yourself:
The goal isn’t to overhaul your life in the next few weeks (though if you manage to, please share your secrets). It’s about gaining altitude—zooming out from the frenzy to see where you are and where you want to go.
We invite you to join us in this conversation about "Looking Back to Look Forward."? Register here for our Free Lunch and Learn.?
See you there,
Camille

Client Feedback
"The program was surprisingly intimate and the people gathered, drawn from Camille's national network of fantastic business leaders, were able to be vulnerable with one another in the small, virtual breakout groups established.? We were all from different companies, and the groupings were of high-level people in nicely small workgroups -- so the environment felt very safe to share what was really happening with us, including our stress points and how we work.? ?Camille created a really unique setting where we could connect on common challenges.? The AIM Deep Dive program was short, sweet, and effective."
