As we wind down the year, headed to a new twelve months in 2025, we are starting a 4-week journey together. A journey designed to help you reflect on the most fundamental questions that guide your life. Together, we are diving into a question that seems so deceptive simple yet is so profoundly how for. That question is, What do I want? As we explore this question, we're going to uncover that the answers aren't just about surface level desires or even material goods. It's about uncovering your authentic self, your values, and your visions for the future. And by the end of this conversation, you’ll have practical tools to help you answer that question and help you start aligning your life with the things that matter most to you.
