If your goals keep fizzling out by February, this episode is your wake-up call. Award-winning author and goal strategist Debra Eckerling joins me to break down the five essential goal-setting shifts Gen X women solopreneurs must make before 2026. We dig into the real drivers of motivation, the role of personal growth in building momentum, and the overlooked power of celebrating small wins along the way.

Deb also explains why traditional SMART goals fall short, how the DEB Method creates clarity you can actually act on, and how intentional networking accelerates every business milestone.
