June Goals

6/6/2016

May was a crazy busy month so I'm actually excited to look back and see how I did on my goals, because truth be told, I didn't get a chance to glance at them often.

It was full steam ahead with Nosh and Nurture Nutrition as I led two seminars on healthy eating in the workplace, started my new role as Editor of Paleo Living Magazine and continued to grow this little human, affectionately named Baby P for the moment.

Goal planning has really helped me stay focused on all aspects of my business and business plan though and it's inspired me to make my long term business plans for 2016/2017 once the baby arrives.

May Goal Recap

Business Goals

Get all my guest posts in, edited and scheduled for my maternity leave. - NOT SO MUCH.
Not fully accomplished. Got the posts in! But haven't edited or scheduled them yet.
Continue to hit blogging number goals! - ACCOMPLISHED!
This I did! Even with less time spent here, it continues to grow and I'm so happy!
Rock my nutrition seminars and speaking gigs this month! - ACCOMPLISHED!
They went so well and I wasn't very nervous at all! I guess all those years singing on stages does help with the whole public speaking thing ;) Excited to do more after baby arrives.
Add nutrition packages to the site. - NOT SO MUCH.
Yeah, I need to get on this.
Complete all deadlines without stress. - ACCOMPLISHED!
I did hit all deadlines. There was a little stress when I had a deadline at 6am on a Holiday morning, but I've been pretty blissed out this month as we await the arrival of Baby P!

Personal Goals

Extend grace &care to myself and nap if I need to. Baby is coming soon! - ACCOMPLISHED-ISH.
I have been napping but not nearly enough as I probably should be in my third trimester. Running
two magazines and my own business, I'm starting to look forward to my maternity leave.
Prenatal Yoga a minimum of 2x a week, Cardio a minimum of 3x a week. - NOT SO MUCH.
Yeah. No. We have been taking walks when it's not over 110 degrees outside, and I've been cleaning
and nesting like crazy which wears me out to no end. But I need to up the Yoga for both the fitness and relaxation aspects for the birth.
Get a lot more work done on the nursery! - ACCOMPLISHED!
YES! We have ALL the furniture. I did all the laundry and put all the baby clothes and shower gifts away, returned all the doubles we recieved and Mr. Charming is doing the wainscoting as I type this then he will paint! It's almost done!
Get a cute dress to wear to my baby shower - ACCOMPLISHED!
This was probably the hardest goal to hit this month, but after 10 stores, many almost-meltdowns in fitting rooms and on the verge of giving up, I found a dusty blue maxi dress that I fell in love with. The biggest win? The guy couldn't locate the price, it was the last one and he sold it to me for $10! SCORE! I was. no joke, going to spend upwards of $100-$200 to find a dress I felt pretty in. haha!
Get in lots of date night / friend time before third trimester exhaustion takes me down.
We had a lovely BBQ night with our neighbors for Memorial Day and spent lots of time with one of our best friends before he moved north for the summer. I also got to see some of my best friends in the world for the baby shower and my sister, who I haven't seen in 17 years, came to stay with us the weekend of the shower! My heart is so full.
