Focus on This

The first quarter of 2025 is almost over. Are you where you thought you’d be? Whether you’re ahead of schedule or feeling behind, now’s the perfect time to reset. In this episode, Marissa Hyatt and Ken Freire walk you through six essential questions to help you reflect on Q1, refocus for Q2, and build momentum for the months ahead. Key Takeaways * Find the Bright Spots. Before focusing on what needs to change, take stock of what went right. Reviewing your calendar, camera roll, or planner can help jog your memory. * Choose Small Shifts. Instead of overwhelming yourself with huge changes, tweak simple habits that impact your success. * Prioritize With Intention. What truly matters in the next 90 days? Clarifying your top priorities will ensure your goals align with your values and vision.  * Refresh Your Rhythms. Whether it’s a morning ritual, a weekly planning session, or a bedtime routine—your habits shape your success. * Remember the Big Picture. Your goals aren’t just about achievement—they’re about who you’re becoming. Make sure your short-term actions align with your long-term vision. * Find Your People. Who are you journeying with? The right support system will push you forward and keep you accountable.

We set goals—then life happens. So what do you do when you need to change course? In this episode, Marissa Hyatt and Ken Freire walk you through the four key elements you can revise when a goal isn’t working. Small changes can make a big difference—and ensure you don’t give up on your goals too soon. Stay in it. You can do this. Key Takeaways 1. Revision Beats Quitting. The best goals are flexible. Instead of giving up, make adjustments that keep you moving forward. 2. Time Matters. If your goal is too easy, shorten it. If it’s too hard, give yourself more time. 3. Watch the Right Number. Is the metric you’re tracking actually undermining your success? Listen to learn how to know—and how to switch. 4. Play the Long Game. Change takes time. The key is staying with it. 5. Strategies Aren’t Sacred. Finding a better approach, accountability, or support system can make all the difference.

We’ve all been there—excited to chase a big goal, only to quit when things get hard. Why do we do it? And, more importantly, what can we do about it?  In this episode, Marissa Hyatt and Ken Freire take a vulnerable, insightful look at what drives us to give up and reveal practical strategies for staying the course. Key Takeaways 1. You Can Do Hard Things.  Big goals require big growth. You’re not yet who you need to become to achieve your goal. The key? Staying connected to your why.  2. Progress Takes Time. Instead of getting discouraged, celebrate small wins and track how far you’ve come. If you quit too soon, failure is guaranteed. 3. Focus On the Next Right Thing. Goals are supposed to be risky—and that can make them overwhelming. Choose simple actions that move you forward. 4. Shame Will Try to Stop You. You’ll have to battle the belief that your worth is tied to your success (but don’t worry, we’ve got ideas to help). 5. Growth Can Feel Isolating. Not everyone wants to grow, because growth is uncomfortable. The key? Finding the right tribe to journey with you.

Struggling to stick to your daily rituals? You’re not alone. In this episode, Marissa Hyatt and Ken Freire break down the four key rituals that set the tone for your day—and how to refresh them without overcomplicating things. Whether you need a morning boost or a better work shutdown routine, this episode will help you make your habits work for you. Key Takeaways 1. Shift From “Ideal” to “Realistic.” Setting a 2-hour morning routine? It’s probably not happening. Instead of planning for ideal, keep it simple. How much time do you really have? 2. Make Space By Cutting. Overloaded routines don’t stick. Trim the excess so you can focus on what truly matters. 3. Build Rituals You Love Keeping. If you hate waking up, add something you love—like a great playlist or a favorite drink—to look forward to. 4. Keep Rituals Fluid. They’ll change with seasons of life, and that’s okay! Adjust them to fit your current reality. (We’ve got ideas to get you started.)

We all know how to declutter a closet—but what about decluttering our to-do lists, calendars, opportunities, and even relationships? In this episode, Marissa Hyatt and Ken Freire share the power of the Not-To-Do List and how subtracting things from your life can make space for what truly matters. Key Takeaways * Some Tasks Should Have Been Retired Years Ago. Are you still doing things out of habit that no longer serve a purpose? It’s time for a reality check. * Meetings Are the Biggest Time Thieves. Most recurring meetings don’t need to exist—or at the very least, they need a serious time limit. * Who’s in Your Inner Circle? You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with—so choose wisely. * Not Every Opportunity is Meant for You. Just because you can say yes doesn’t mean you should. (Marissa shares why she had to say no to a dream trip.) * Decluttering Creates Space for What Matters. This isn’t about doing less—it’s about making room for the things that actually move the needle.
