How to Set Goals, Build Habits, and Create a Wellbeing-Centred Routine for Success
Hello hello!! I absolutely love the start of a new year, don’t you? There’s a special energy in the air—a chance to begin fresh, set exciting goals, and envision all the wonderful ways we can grow, explore and unlock our potential! If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the pressure of trying to achieve everything at once, I’m here to reassure you: true success and wellbeing lies in the small, consistent steps we take every day.
In this post, I’ll share my favourite strategies for setting achievable goals, developing habits that truly stick, and creating supportive routines that serve your mind, body, and soul. Plus, I have some exciting news to share about our upcoming workshops, special coaching offers, and personal updates—so keep reading 🙂
Clarify Your Goals
First things first: get really clear on what it is you want to achieve—both in your personal life and in your wellness journey. Goals shouldn’t feel like strict to-do lists but rather supportive guides that inspire you. Ask yourself:
- What do I genuinely want to accomplish?
- Why does it matter to me?
- How will my life change once I achieve it?
When you tap into the deeper ‘why’ behind each goal, you’ll feel far more motivated to keep going.
Build Habits That Stick
Habits are like little daily anchors that keep us aligned with our goals. To ensure your habits become second nature rather than a fleeting trend:
- Start Small: Pick just one or two simple habits to focus on. Tiny steps each day can add up to big and impactful changes over time.
- Use Triggers: Try pairing a new habit with something you already do (e.g. a quick morning stretch right after you brush your teeth).
- Reward Yourself: Celebrate and recognise your efforts—treat yourself to a relaxing bath, a cup of soothing tea, or even a mindful moment in nature.
Create a Wellbeing-Focused Routine
I’m a huge believer in routines that honour your wellbeing. Whether it’s a calming morning meditation or a gentle stretch before bedtime, these simple rituals help keep you grounded.
Consider:
- Morning Routine: Wake up a bit earlier to enjoy a few minutes of journaling or gratitude.
- Evening Wind-Down: Turn off screens earlier, sip on something warm, and reflect on a win from your day.
These small acts of self-care add up to a big difference in how energised and motivated you feel.
Join Our Free Two-Part Workshop
Now, for the extra exciting part: I’m hosting a two-part workshop designed to help you take everything in this blog post and put it into practice:
Workshop 1 (20th January): Let’s set realistic goals and establish daily habits that actually last.
Workshop 2 (12th February): We’ll dive deeper into your vision and values, and create a vision board for 2025 that truly reflects what matters to and aligns with you.
Both workshops are completely free, so you can easily jump in! Each session is suitable for everyone—whether you’re brand new to goal-setting or an old hand just looking to refresh your approach or do so with others.
Special Coaching Offer for the New Year
I’m so excited to announce a rare coaching offer I haven’t run in years: Buy 3 months of 1:1 coaching and get 1 month free! That’s a saving of up to £480, and it’s only available until 31 January. I do have limited slots, so it’s first come, first served. If you’ve ever thought about working with me on a deeper level, now is the perfect time to jump in and make the most of our time together before my maternity leave.

- Studio Maintenance: Our beloved Fit Living App will be undergoing some exciting upgrades in February, so it will be temporarily down. Stay tuned for announcements on the re-launch—I can’t wait for you to see the changes!

Let’s sum things up…
Goals, habits, and routines grounded in wellbeing are the key to creating a life you love—one that feels fulfilling, energising, joyful and aligned. Remember, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. You can join our workshops, hop into a live class, or experience the transformative magic of personal coaching.
Here’s to a year filled with purpose, progress, and plenty of self-care. I believe in you, and I’m here to walk this path with you every step of the way!
