2025 - How did I do?

  Personal: 

1. Figure out my eyes :( 

Got a lot of pairs of glasses. 

2. At least come up with a plan for the back yard, perhaps execute? 

DONE! We started enjoying it in August. 

3. Maintain what was done in the front yard. 

I think this was successful for the most part and we'll finish the driveway and lighting this year. 

4. Enjoy the heck out of Italy! 

Absolutely nailed this. 

5. Go to NYC at least once. 

Yikes. I don't think this happened. 

6. Figure out our 15 year anniversary celebration. 

This looked totally different than expected but we had a fantastic time in Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris. 

7. Clean and organize my office to something more functional. 

Ope... this is moving to 2026

8. Work on Lynn Hearn's tape and papers. 

See above :(

Health/Fitness: 

9. Work through 3 fat loss phases with the nutritionist. (Jan-mid-March, April-May, Sept-Nov)

This was a fail but not entirely. 

10. Finish at least 5 Peloton programs.

Did a major pivot this year but in a good way. 

11. Hit 20K peloton minutes.  

See #10

12. Get to a place where we are only going out to eat 3 times a week at maximum. 

GAH. Total fail but I think that Torchy's closing mid year helped a ton. 

13. Work through the food in our freezers! 

I think I've gotten more intentional about this! 

14. Go to a class with Anastasia. 

I need to give up on this as we have children to compete with but I did go to a lot of Pilates with other friends so it all worked out! 

15. Teach Owen to cook. 

Work in progress but we're doing it! 

16. Figure out what maintenance looks like and live there. 

Unintentionally did this for a lot of months of the year... just about 20 lbs heavier than I'd like to maintain at. 

Professional: 

17. Enjoy my time with NOW. 

Year 1 down, on to year 2! 

18. Exceed all my billable time goals. 

I would say this was nailed beyond what I'd hoped for and that will continue at least for Q1 of 2026. 

19. Continue to mentor my team even when I am no longer their direct supervisor. 

I consider this a win! Some more than others bur I have a lot of good relationships built. 

20. Finish PMP Coursework. 

100%

21. Pass PMP Exam. 

Also, check done! 

22. Apply for APM in the fall. 

This didn't look the same but did end up working out as I applied for an entirely different and much more suited for me role and got it! 

23. If not Seller-Doer, figure out another way to be involved in a T&D Training Program this year.

HAHAHA ones like this are always fun to look back on. Boy did I accomplish this! Not only was Seller-Doer a highlight of my year, I am now FULLY involved in T&D Training. 

24. Have a transition plan that makes sense for all parties, i.e. get out unscathed and leave it better than I found it. 

I think this worked out as well as it could have given the challenges and circumstances and for the most part, I get along fine with everyone. 

BONUS:

25: Read 5 books. 

UGH. I maybe did 2 and that might be generous. OPE.
