My 2026 Goals
Happy New Year! I love setting goals in the new year to stretch myself and add good things to my life.
Today I wanted to share a few of my goals for 2026. As much as I love setting goals, some of these are repeat goals from last year because I didn’t accomplish them. But I’ll just keep setting goals because it helps me improve my life!

A few of my goals for 2026
1. Sauna and cold plunge after every workout possible. This year I started going to Orange Theory gym because it pushed me to get out of the house and get a great workout done in one hour. But since I’m not working out at our home gym as much, I haven’t been using the sauna and cold plunge hardly at all. This year I’m getting back to it. It’s so good for your body!
2. Red light mask twice a day. I’ve been pretty good at using my red light mask once per day this year, but I’m going to add in a night time session.
3. Intentional date night once a month. PW and I have never been great about regular date nights. We have literally no excuse anymore because our kids are old enough to not need a babysitter, so what are we even doing?! This is our year.
4. Take one day off every week to focus on long term projects, or just do nothing. I’ve done this the last two years and it has been life changing for me, so I’m doing it again! As someone with their own business, there is always something that can be done and it’s easy to never be off the clock. The last two years I’ve been good about taking the day off, but not so good about working on long term projects. I’m going to do better about this one this year!
5. Create a business mastermind group. I planned to do this last year but it never came to fruition. This year I’m going to make it happen!
6. Read aloud to the boys every night possible. This has been our routine since the boys were tiny, but in the last year with our very busy schedules, we haven’t been so consistent, and we’ve struggled to find a book that we really love and want to read every night. But during December, we’ve been more consistent about it and it’s been such a joy to . My goal this year is to get back to consistency.
7. Take B on a 16 year old trip. This year my oldest turns 16, and we’re starting a tradition of a mom-son trip when they turn 16. He gets to choose the place, and then he has to book the flights and hotel and car rental, and do all the transactions of meals and everything while we’re on the trip. I’ll be paying for it all, but he has to manage it. I think it’ll be great practice for adulting and dating! I’m so excited to see where he chooses to go.
8. Intentional friday family movie night. We’ve been doing Friday movie night for years, but just this last year we’ve been working through movie series instead of random movies, and that has made it so much more fun. This year I want to be really intentional about the movies we watch as a family, showing my boys old classics, and watching the big movie series. We just finished all the Marvel movies and the Jurassic Park movies, so we have to figure out what’s next!
What are some of your goals for 2026? I’d love to hear!
