In this special episode of Be Freaking Awesome, Sami guides you through a hands-on New Year’s exercise to help you start the year with intention. Using the metaphor of a sailboat, Sami asks thought-provoking questions to help you clarify your goals, identify what will propel you forward, recognize what keeps you steady, and address what might hold you back. This reflective and interactive episode is designed to help you sail into the new year with purpose and confidence.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• How to define your “island” (your goals or direction) for the year.
• The importance of identifying the “wind in your sails” (your motivators).
• What it means to have a “keel” for stability in life and work.
• How to recognize and let go of “anchors” that create drag or hold you back.

Key Takeaways:

• Setting intentionality is about creating direction, not perfection.
• Balance comes from identifying what supports and steadies you, even during challenges.
• Awareness of potential obstacles (anchors) helps you navigate life more effectively.
