Visioning vs. Goal Setting: Why the Old Way Isn't Working
Thu Jan 22 2026
Ever set a goal or resolution at the beginning of the year…only to forget it by February? Or feel like something's wrong with you when you don't follow through? This doesn't mean you're undisciplined or uncommitted.
In this episode of the Star Powered® Podcast, I explore why goals function a lot like predictions, they're binary, fixed, and rigid. They work for short-term planning and sprint cycles, but when you're looking out at the year ahead, especially in times of change, a goal won't orient you.
What you need is a vision.
A vision invites direction without certainty.
It creates space for possibility and surprise. And it keeps you in relationship with where you're going, even as the path twists, turns, and unfolds. Astrology is your tool to understand where opportunity and timing are available so you can work with the energy instead of fighting against it.
