    035 | Beyond Vision Boards: Master Goal-Setting for 2025 - M.T.O. and F.A.S.T

    Hi Change Maker,  When the stakes are high, and you're ready to make real moves, traditional goal-setting won't cut it. You might have ambitious plans, maybe even a vision board gathering dust in the corner—but are you set up for the kind of growth that actually inspires you and helps you see progress in your work? SMART Goals may not be the framework you need with a fast-paced work environment and in the midst of crisis. In this episode, you learn about MTO and FAST goals, two frameworks designed to drive you forward with purpose and momentum, not just talk. Structured to bring measurable results, aligning with your big-picture vision, these frameworks help you consider what to do next and how to realign your work so you're equipped with small wins in your big work. Join me in this episode of Design 2025, where I’ll guide you through the strategy of goal-setting built for the modern Change Maker, and set you on a path to thrive in the new year and beyond.    Next Steps:  Join the Waitlist for Golden Hour: https://bit.ly/goldenhourwaitlist Join the Free Design 2025 Fireside Chat: https://media.feliciafordandco.com/events Submit for the Momentum Icon™ Grant: https://momentumicon.com  Get free resources: www.feliciafordandco.com/resources What MTO or F.A.S.T.

    033 | Permission to Dream Bigger – Expanding Your Vision for What’s Possible

    Change Maker,  Have you ever felt like there’s more you could achieve, but something keeps holding you back? It’s that tug between where you are and where you know you could be—if only you gave yourself the space to imagine it. But ambition sometimes feels heavy, like an indulgence you can’t afford, and the routine of good work can make it easy to forget that growth is still possible. It’s okay if you’ve paused. Every great leader does at some point. What matters is recognizing the moment when it’s time to move again—and that moment is now. Because when you grow, your mission does too.  In this episode, we explore how to expand your vision, embrace personal growth, and create room for what’s next.   Next Steps:  Sponsor or Advertise with Us: https://media.feliciafordandco.com/sponsor  Get on the Golden Hour Waitlist: https://media.feliciafordandco.com/powermoves Join the Launch Team: https://bit.ly/launchteaminterest
