In this video I share my 5 tips on how to become the best version of yourself in 2023 (and honestly, in every year after that). I wanted it to be straight to the point, because becoming “HER” isn’t about doing the most—it’s about doing what actually aligns with your goals and your peace, with God first. I talk about why putting yourself and your goals first is not selfish, especially if you’ve been the type to put everybody else ahead of you and then end up feeling depressed. I also get into taking time for self (because you cannot pour from an empty cup), and I give real examples like reading, solo dates, going on a walk, and even taking a bath instead of rushing through a shower. Then I explain why journaling helped me so much in 2022—being able to look back, process emotions, and see how far I’ve come. I also share a mindset shift my therapist gave me: set quarterly goals instead of yearly goals so it’s less intimidating and more doable. Finally, I talk about giving yourself grace because it’s not a race. You’re going to stumble, but grace helps you get back up faster—and sometimes, if it’s still not working, God may be telling you it’s not your time, to try another way, or that He has something better.
