Reflection & Goal Setting for 2025 – A Guide for Mums in Property

As mums in property, juggling family life and business can feel like a constant balancing act. With 2024 coming to a close, now is the perfect time to pause, reflect, and set meaningful goals for the year ahead.

This guide will walk you through:

• Reflecting on your wins and challenges from 2024

• Setting clear and achievable goals for 2025

• Staying motivated and overcoming challenges

So, take a deep breath, grab a notebook, and let’s make 2025 your most successful year yet.

Reflecting on 2024: Lessons & Wins

Before setting new goals, take a moment to reflect on the past year. Ask yourself:

✔ What were your biggest wins in property and personal life?

✔ What challenges did you face, and what did you learn from them?

✔ Did your property journey align with your family life and values?

✔ What strategies worked well, and what needs to change?

Tip: Focus on progress, not perfection. Whether you secured a deal, built new connections, or simply kept going through tough times, every step counts.

Write down three things you’re proud of from 2024—no matter how big or small.

Setting Intentional Goals for 2025

Now, let’s shift our focus to the future. Setting clear, actionable goals will help you stay focused and motivated.

A great way to structure your goals is using the SMART framework:

✔ Specific – Clearly define what you want to achieve

✔ Measurable – Track your progress

✔ Achievable – Set realistic yet ambitious goals

✔ Relevant – Ensure they align with your priorities

✔ Time-bound – Set deadlines to keep yourself accountable

Example Goals:

✅ Instead of: “I want to grow my property portfolio.”

Say: “I will purchase one buy-to-let property by June 2025, generating at least £500 in monthly cash flow.”

✅ Instead of: “I want better work-life balance.”

Say: “I will dedicate two evenings a week to family time without checking emails or taking calls.”

Hope you enjoy this Episode
