Show Notes: The Secrets of Supermom Show with Lori Oberbroeckling
Hey, hey friend! Welcome to Episode #212 of The Secrets of Supermom Show!
Welcome to The Secrets of Supermom Show, where we help busy moms battle overwhelm, beat burnout, and stay happy in the process. Today, we’re bringing back some incredible advice from our Best Year Ever series. Originally aired in 2022, this magical weeklong event featured seven powerhouse experts sharing their secrets to planning and achieving their best year ever. With bestselling authors, CEOs, and strategic coaches in the mix, these insights remain some of our most downloaded episodes—and for good reason.
If you’re ready to take 2025 by storm, here’s a compilation of their best advice, including actionable steps and mindset shifts to set your year up for success.
Pro Tips: How to Plan Your Best Year Ever
- Break down big, scary goals into manageable steps. For example, if you’re training for a half marathon but have only ever run two miles, don’t stress about the 13.1 miles ahead. Instead, focus on micro-goals like running two miles this week, three miles next week, and so on. These incremental wins build confidence and momentum while reducing fear of the unknown.
- Highlight family time first to ensure your personal life is prioritized before layering in business or personal projects. This approach creates balance and prevents overwhelm.
- Start each year by letting go of commitments that no longer serve you. This simple act frees up time for what matters most.
- Create a “priority filter” by asking yourself: “Does this task bring me closer to my ultimate goal?” If it doesn’t, consider delegating, delaying, or deleting it altogether. This approach simplifies decision-making and reduces stress.
- Celebrate small wins. Progress, not perfection, will keep you motivated and moving forward.
- Schedule regular check-ins with your support network to ensure you stay on track and feel supported throughout the year.
Remember, creating your best year ever doesn’t mean doing everything perfectly—it’s about doing what matters most. Which tip resonated most with you? Let us know in the comments below!
