Finding Direction: Setting Goals for a Sober Life
Set a goal, orient yourself towards it and plan actions accordingly.

She shares her personal journey of setting a simple fitness goal—walking most days—and how it has spurred her personal growth. Michelle acknowledges the fine balance between setting too many goals, which can be overwhelming, and having none, which can lead to stagnation.
Instead, she advocates for choosing one or two key objectives to focus on, orienting yourself towards them, and planning actionable steps. This approach not only helps in staying intentional but also prevents unnecessary stress. Michelle also highlights the value of mindfulness by sharing her practice of taking a mindful pause during her walks.
