Description

If you’re a high achiever who sets big goals but rarely pauses to celebrate, this episode will change how you plan your year.

In this She Believed She Could Podcast episode, Allison Walsh and Brian Schweitzer break down a powerful year-end reflection process and a practical goal-setting system that helps you create aligned, measurable, achievable goals for 2026. You’ll learn how to evaluate 2025 using four key questions (wins, lessons, joy, and drains), how to reduce distractions and protect your time, and how to set goals in 90-day sprints supported by weekly habits and real-life systems.

You’ll also hear Allison’s WIN Framework, plus an inside look at what’s coming next, including the She Believed She Could™ Podcast Network and the Spotlight Experience.
