My Realistic Ahh Goals for January - An Attempt at Starting Strong
A new year means new energy, new focus, and new goals (with the same me lmao). This time, I’m not just setting them tho—I’m mapping them out, breaking them down, and making sure I see them through.
2025 is the year I stop just dreaming about big stuff and start doing, one itty bitty step at a time.
Let me walk you through how I’m setting a badass tone for the year.
Kat’s Epic Plan
This year, I’m working on four major areas that touch every part of my life: health, personal growth, professional success, and financial security. These pillars are what will hold me up as I create the life I want, not just for me but for the people I care about. Each one is a little piece of the puzzle, and together they’ll make the vision complete. I used Google Docs for this and you can check my year long breakdown out (and make a copy for yourself) right here.
And check out my Vision for 2025 post if you haven’t already.
Pillar 1 -Health
In health, my focus is on building strength and endurance, starting with simple and consistent effort. I’m using the Hybrid Calistenics book by Hampton and of course my Fit! Home Gym.
The goal is to knock out 10 pull-ups and run 2 miles without stopping (cue the tears now). To get there, I’m starting with the Hybrid Calisthenics program and interval running. It’s not flashy, it’s not impressive but it’s where I need to begin.
Pillar 2 - Personal Growth
For personal growth, I’m doubling down on my relationships. Nunu (my son) deserves a mom who’s present and connected, so I’m carving out intentional time with him every week.
Bubba (my life partner) and I are focusing on quality over quantity with planned date nights EVERY WEEK that give us space to reconnect and fill up both of our love language needs. On top of that, I’m finally starting my novel, Talisman and the Cave of Dragons. Writing has been my dream for as long as I can remember, and this year, I’m making it real.
Pillar 3 -Professional Shit
Professionally, I’m building my presence online, with the goal of growing my Instagram and TikTok accounts to 500K followers each. I want to work with brands I LOVE, lock in consistent paid work, and even branch into new platforms like Twitch. Like forreal, I want to create a community where people feel seen, inspired, and encouraged.
Pillar 4 - Moneys
Financially, the mission is security and abundance bihhh. By the end of the year, I want to earn $10K a month through social media only, and start dating new streams of income. To get there, I’m starting with a VERY solid budget, saving intentionally, and putting in the work to pitch to brands that align with my goals.
This year I’m trying to make a sustainable plan for living the life I’ve always imagined. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m okay with that. I’m building something real, and that takes time.
What I Did Today
Today was all about laying the foundation. I took the big picture of what I want for 2025 and broke it down into monthly goals, starting with January. I set clear targets in each area—fitness, writing, content creation, and savings—and mapped out how I’ll tackle them week by week. I also created a budget to track my spending and make sure I’m hitting my financial goals. It feels good to have a roadmap, like I’m already ahead of the game.
Big changes?
Starts with small, intentional steps. The key I think is showing up, even when it feels overwhelming and especially when it feels slow.
