EP 459 - How to Reflect on the Year Without Self-Criticism

About this episode

This episode discusses how to reflect on the past year without falling into self-criticism, promoting a kinder approach to personal evaluation.

As we closed the previous year reflection is everywhere, but for many of us it quickly turns into self judgment. If you’ve been replaying what you didn’t do, wondering why you’re not further along, or feeling like you somehow fell short last year then this episode is for you. In this conversation we explore a new way to look back, one that doesn’t involve beating yourself up or rewriting your worth based on outcomes. This isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about understanding yourself. This episode is for you if you’re feeling behind, stuck, or disappointed with how the year unfolded. If you tend to be your own harshest critic during reflection. If you want to grow, but not at the cost of your mental or emotional health and if you’re craving a softer, more honest way to close this chapter. Let’s reflect on the year with honesty and kindness. xoxo, Jeannet Work with Jeannet: Apply for one on one private coaching: https://forms.gle/bwoTL8HCUDPmM1LY8 Get my FREE workbook to help you identify the skills you can monetize with an online business: https://www.jeannetsacks.com/monetizeskills Coaching Business Workshop: This Workshop is designed to take you from newbie to launching your…
