95. How to Finally Stick to Your Goals (& What You Say You're Going To Do)

Are you tired of beating yourself up over unmet goals? You know...the ones you keep SAYING you want to achieve, but then don't take action towards?  

In this raw and honest episode, we're diving deep into why we keep setting the same goals without following through - and why that might actually be a good thing.   

Through my personal journey with fitness and exercise, we explore the complex relationship between our goals, societal expectations, and authentic desires. 

 🍋‍🟩 Juicy talking points:

  • The impact of unmet goals on self-confidence & self-image
  • How societal conditioning influences our goal-setting
  • The difference between discipline and authentic motivation 
  • Finding peace with changing priorities
  • Breaking free from shame-based goal setting  

📝 Journal Prompts for Reflection: (I encourage you to type these into the Notes app on your phone and think about each one for a minute or two! 

  1. 1️⃣. What do I say I want to be doing (or what do I say my goal is) but I'm not doing it & why?  
  2. 2️⃣. Is NOT prioritizing this goal a bad thing? Or was I conditioned to set this goal and believe that way?  
  3. 3️⃣. What WAS my 'why' when I initially set this goal & what is my 'why' now...if I have one at all? 
  4. 4️⃣. Can I accept myself if I release this goal all together?  

🎉 EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT:  

Don't miss my upcoming 5-day series where we'll dive deeper into prioritizing your life so that you can be present & "do it all" in a peaceful & authentic way! Stay tuned for more details...especially if you're a mom who:

About the Podcast

Beyond Awareness: Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Beyond Awareness (formerly Journal Entries) is for successful women in leadership and business who know exactly what they need to do but can't make themselves do it.

You know you need to prioritize yourself, delegate more, set boundaries, stop bringing work home. You've tried therapy, coaching, retreats. You know the solution - but you either can't follow through, or when you DO, it doesn't stick.

Host Samantha Hawley helps business owners and executives earning $100k+ excavate the root beliefs underneath the execution gap. Why do you keep not doing the thing? Why doesn't it feel better when you do? Using strategic journaling and emotional excavation, we go beyond awareness into why you're actually stuck in the pattern.

This isn't about more tactics or tips. This is about understanding why awareness isn't enough and what actually needs to shift for you to change.

You'll hear about: decision fatigue, why you can't prioritize yourself, nervous system regulation, being present with your kids, root cause of overwhelm, why boundaries don't stick, self-sabotage patterns, and how your internal state impacts everything.

Perfect for: Female CFOs, VPs, directors, executives, business owners, and women in leadership who are tired of knowing what's wrong but not being able to change it.
