In this episode, I dive into the 10 business & life goals I set for myself at the beginning of 2024 and check-in with the progress made so far this year - from the feelings I thought I'd feel about each goal vs how I actually feel, to what goals have already been met, what needs to be prioritized for the rest of the year, and what needs adjusted or pushed back.
