Ep 17 — How to Set Goals and Actually Accomplish Them in 2025
Goal setting advice is everywhere and most of it was designed for neurotypical brains. For neurodivergent people, the standard frameworks often create more shame than progress. In this episode, we break down why traditional goal setting fails ND brains, what actually works instead, and how to build a system for following through that accounts for how your brain really operates.
Ever set a resolution and actually accomplished it? If not, you aren’t alone, there are so many reasons why resolutions aren’t the right way to accomplish things.
This episode Tonya discusses the pitfalls of traditional New Year’s resolutions and advocates for goal setting using the SMART criteria. Tonya explains how specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals can provide a clearer path to success. This episode offers practical strategies and expert advice for anyone looking to make meaningful changes in their lives, especially for the neurodivergent community.
