Most goal-setting starts with targets, milestones, and action plans.

But what if the quality of your goals depends less on *what* you want to achieve, and more on the foundation you're building from?

In this interactive workshop, [**Marcia Owen**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marciaowen8/), leadership coach and change consultant, introduces a different way to think about professional growth. Rather than focusing solely on productivity frameworks and SMART goals, she explores how purpose, personal values, wellbeing, and self-awareness create more meaningful and sustainable success. Through practical exercises and reflection, the session helps independent professionals build goals that are aligned with who they are - not just what they want to accomplish.

# What you'll take away from the session:

- Why meaningful goals begin with self-awareness, values, and purpose—not just action plans
- How to identify your unique strengths and personal brand as an independent professional
- The difference between chasing external validation and building sustainable career growth
- Practical ways to align your goals with your wellbeing, relationships, and long-term priorities
- Why adaptability and openness often create better opportunities than rigid planning
- A practical framework to reflect, prioritise, and set more intentional goals

## If you're looking to move beyond ticking off goals and instead create a career that's purposeful, resilient, and sustainable, this workshop offers a fresh perspective to help you start the year with clarity.
