Six Months In And Nothing Went as Planned (Now What?)

Let’s be honest.

You had a vision.

A plan.

A vibe.

Maybe it was color-coded.

Maybe it was just a feeling.

But either way, this wasn’t it.

Six months ago, you told yourself this year would be different. You’d finally launch the thing, leave the thing, grow into the version of you who doesn’t second-guess every move.

And yet… here we are. Halfway through the year, and it feels like the only thing you’ve gained is more questions.

First of All: You’re Not Failing

Can we just pause the inner critic for a second?

You are not behind.

You are not broken.

You are not wasting your potential.

You're evolving.

And evolution? It’s messy.

We’re not meant to be perfect progress charts.

We’re meant to be human: learning, unlearning, pivoting, pausing. Some seasons are for growth, and some are for gathering yourself. Some are about planting seeds you won't even see bloom until next year.

What Did This Half-Year Teach You?

Instead of asking “Why am I not further along?”

Ask:

✨ What did I learn about myself that I couldn’t have known in January?

✨ What goals no longer feel aligned and why?

✨ Where did I show up with more courage than I realized?

This isn’t about sugarcoating disappointment. It’s about extracting the wisdom from it.

What didn’t work might be the exact feedback you needed to build something better in the second half.

The “Now What?” Part

Let’s ditch the guilt and go practical:

1. Audit Your Energy, Not Just Your Goals

• Where did your energy feel drained? Where did it feel natural and fulfilling?

• Instead of chasing what sounds impressive, chase what feels aligned.

2. Release the “Shoulds”

• You don’t have to finish what no longer fits.

• Let go of goals that were born from pressure instead of purpose.

3. Pick One Word for the Second Half

• One theme. One intention. One feeling you want to expand.

• Let it guide your yes’s, your no’s, and your boundaries.

4. Move with Compassion and Precision

• No need for a massive reinvention.

• What’s one small, meaningful change you can commit to this week?

  
  

What If This Was All Part of the Plan?

Here’s a radical idea:

What if nothing went as planned… because something better is unfolding?

Something quieter.

Deeper.

Less about achievement, more about alignment. Less about doing, more about becoming.

You didn’t lose the year. You’re learning to live it differently.

Ready for a Mid-Year Reset?

If you're craving clarity, direction, or just someone to help you untangle the noise, this is the work I do. We don’t need a new year to start fresh. Sometimes we just need a new lens.

🌀 Let’s pause, realign, and make the next six months count on your terms.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
