In this episode of You Got This by Monica Mahi, we’re thrilled to welcome Sabine Karunanithy, who is an Awareness Trainer.

We all know goals are important - but how do we make them real? What if the key wasn’t just in the big vision, but in the small steps we take every day? That’s where micro-habits come in. By building simple, consistent systems, we might just wake up one day having achieved those big dreams - and more.

Sabine has spent many years understanding what stops employees and leaders from achieving the goals they set for themselves, why they did not yet become the person they always wanted to be. Sabine’s goal is to help people understanding how they can make changes in their lives and careers - through deeper self-awareness, increased emotional and cultural intelligence, and the ability to create and maintain the habits that allow for success.

Today, Sabine shares how micro-habits can change the game, helping you move from stuck to thriving. She works with individuals to reclaim their lives, make lasting changes, and unlock potential through the power of awareness and habit.

This episode provides an insight into the how goals can be overwhelming and ways to overcome these feelings. From feeling overwhelmed to becoming intentional, this episode takes you on a practical journey - one small shift at a time.

Key Topics Covered:

• Why do big goals feel overwhelming?
• The power of micro-habits
