2026 Goals & 2025 Review: Why Missing Your Goals Can Still Lead to Success | Undiscovered Entrepreneur
What happens when you don't hit all your entrepreneurial goals? In this vulnerable solo episode, I'm sharing my complete 2025 goal review and revealing my ambitious plans for 2026—including speaking at PodFest, launching my newsletter, and pursuing Mel Robbins as a guest!
🎯 What You'll Learn:
✅ How I hit 52 podcast episodes without missing a single week
✅ Why getting only 1 speaking gig (instead of 3) led to my biggest breakthrough
✅ The domino effect of "imperfect progress" in entrepreneurship
✅ My honest failures: no solo episodes, still working two jobs, zero coaching clients
✅ How fear became my guide instead of my obstacle
✅ 2026 goals: 5 solo episodes, 2 coaching clients, Mel Robbins interview attempt
💡 Key Takeaway:
"The hurdles aren't in the way—the hurdles ARE the way." Even partial goal achievement creates unexpected opportunities you never imagined.
