Show notes

Do you do a word of the year? Maybe it's a phrase or mantra. Or maybe, you're feeling all the pressure to have that perfect word of the year and you have no clue! Is it even important to have? I"ll say this - your mantra, phrase or word of the year is not the dealbreaker for success in life. Yet having a clear intention for what you want to focus on can be a powerful game-changer for your life.

Hear why we DO believe in choosing a word or theme for the year, and plenty of examples from others on what intentions are going out for 2021. Get the corresponding blog post at www.MamaSaysNamaste.com/podcast-word-of-the-year
