In this episode, we talk about the fourth letter in the ROOTED acronym: Tailored to Your Lifestyle. If you want to craft compelling goals that are grounded in your unique calling, then you’ll have to give yourself permission to develop creative solutions that make sense for your particular circumstances. Sometimes this means tailoring your goal to match your lifestyle, and other times this means tailoring your lifestyle to match your goal.
Join us as we chat about how taking time to tailor your goal and your lifestyle will prevent unnecessary tension between the two, and enable you to actually follow through even on the most challenging goals you set!

In this episode, we talk about the third letter in the ROOTED acronym: Outlined for Clarity. Clarity is key when it comes to giving your brain an objective that it can actually process, prioritize, and tackle in the day-to-day.
When you break down a goal into tangible action-steps, you are equipped to move past your vague theories about what it will take to make your goal happen. You’re able to see the gaps in your knowledge about the process, which compels you to research until you have concrete and actionable understanding.
Listen in as we talk about exactly how to take a vague goal and break it down into actionable and compelling steps!

In this episode, we talk about the second letter in the ROOTED acronym: Organically Growing Out of Your Context. You need goals that take your real life context seriously and embrace it. You need goals that connect with where you are right now, and that respect that you’re here for a reason. Recognizing the season you’re in and identifying the contours of your priorities can empower you to identify the next right step—the one that can realistically begin to build the lasting change you want to see.
Join us as we talk about why this is one of the most critical steps in setting ROOTED goals, a step that most other goal-setting systems completely ignore. We talk all about what this looks like in our lives and how embracing our context has empowered us to craft and execute meaningful goals year after year!

In this episode, we talk about the first letter in the ROOTED acronym: Rooted in Your Core Calling. Grasping the unique calling of God for your individual life is a life-long process! But leaning into your core calling is an essential part of creating goals that fully resonate over the long-haul, compel you to follow-through, and produce a lot of satisfying fruit along the way.
Join us as we talk through discovering how your core calling is playing out in your life today, and how that should impact how you set goals! We also talk a lot about how this part of the ROOTED Goal Setting System is not meant to weigh you down, but give you freedom to lean into your God-given strengths, passions and responsibilities!

Your productivity will fluctuate based on the season you find yourself in. It can be easy to get caught up into thinking we should be able to plan and execute tasks regardless of what is happening around us, but this simply isn’t the case!
In this episode, we talk about how knowing your productivity season is a key time-management skill that can help you set goals and priorities accordingly.
We have found there are three main seasons of productivity:
- Surviving - 1:20
- Reviving - 5:20
- Thriving - 7:27
We talk in-depth about each of these seasons, and discuss different strategies for how to approach productivity depending on the season you are in. Join us for a conversation that is practical, encouraging and full of ideas you can implement right now!
Whatever season you're in, the most crucial step is knowing what your next-right-step goal is. The ROOTED Goals Workbook was designed to help you identify, strategize and execute your next-right-step goal. It teaches you to plan and prioritize tasks in the context of your life, whether you're surviving, reviving or thriving. Download your workbook today!

Living mentally scattered can leave you feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. You spin your wheels, tackling whatever is in front of you at any given moment, and then feel discouraged that you don’t make progress on the things that matter most to you.
In this episode, we talk about why you need a hub for your brain, a tool that can help you sort, prioritize and tackle all the ideas, plans and goals you have banging around in your head. We talk about why we created the Evergreen planner, and how each of our core products (the Annual, the Classic and the Cover) was crafted to infuse more peace into your day.

Effective yet flexible rhythms are one of the key building blocks in a sustainable and intentional lifestyle. But trying to copy a guru’s routine, whether for work or home life, quickly becomes overwhelming. There are dozens of “best practices” out there, so where do you start? How do you decide what you need in your personal rhythms?
In this episode, we walk through how to build a morning and evening rhythm that is uniquely crafted to your life! We talk about what our rhythms look like these days, and how we keep them flexible, but effective. We even discuss how rhythms can adjust and change in different seasons, such as when dealing with chronic illness or a postpartum season.
If you’re craving some order in your life, but don’t know where to start, this is the episode for you!
