1
I am sick of the anti-goal setting rhetoric that I've seen in 2026
2
and I completely understand if you are sick of the new year, new me rhetoric.
3
I get it.
4
However, as women, I want to make you aware of something.
5
There is a gender goal gap.
6
Research shows that women set lower goals than men.
7
So when we are talking about goals, I need you to know
8
that it is an act of feminism to be an obsessive goal setter
9
and in being an insufferable goal setter I have spent the last five years devising the perfect goal setting strategy
10
that incorporates all the different goal setting frameworks you could possibly think of
11
and a couple you never will have heard of into this perfect pyramid method
12
that will not only give you the pathway for setting your goals
13
but also make sure that you are dreaming bigger than you ever have before
14
because I know that as women we are so so so guilty for capping our potential.
15
Stick around until the end
16
because I will tell you how you can get a free copy of this notion template
17
that I'm using for my pyramid method for goal setting.
18
And before we go into the specifics, the nitty-gritty framework for how you're actually going to achieve your goals,
19
we need to start with a step I think most people get wrong.
20
This section is specifically for you.
21
If you are someone who has big, big, big, big, big dreams, however, you really struggle to find the motivation in the boring,
22
mundane, everyday stuff, it is because you do not have a strong enough why.
23
So I would like to introduce you to BAHAG goals.
24
If you have never heard of BAHAG goals, BAHAG stands for big, hairy, audacious goals.
25
For women, this is specifically important because of this 2023 study that found women perform worse when they make their goals public.
26
They dumb them down, they make them more realistic, they are not as audacious.
27
So the whole point of this section is to forget about what is realistic, to forget what is compatible with your everyday life, to shoot for the stars,
28
to dream as big as you possibly can because lord knows as women we do not do this enough.
29
There was a dinner that I went to last year
30
or the year before with Jasmine Sawyers who is an Olympian
31
and she said that her resolution for that year was to just be more delulu.
32
Do you think that like as women we just need to be a little bit more delusional?
33
So to actually set your BAG goal, what I want you to do is to envision yourself in five years time.
34
What is the absolute dream scenario you could possibly imagine for yourself in five years time
35
and then I want you to make it 20% bigger so
36
if your dream is to be in the Forbes 30 under 30 whatever make
37
that 20% bigger say you want to I don't know sell your company for a ridiculous amount of money
38
or say for me I would say five years time I
39
would love to have a PhD in a women's health topic
40
that I'm interested in how can I make
41
that 20% bigger have a PhD from the top university in the world think about just keep tweaking
42
and tweaking and tweaking until it feels like something
43
that you would genuinely be proud of
44
because also what I don't want you to do is set a BAG goal
45
that doesn't feel authentic to you I think there's
46
so much external noise when it comes to goal setting about what you should be doing.
47
The key is making it audacious, but still feel like yourself, not just something you're doing for the external validation.
48
I have a little bit of an embarrassing story about why I think the hag goals are so important.
49
It is about Faye in 2020 when I had just started my YouTube channel.
50
I was in my second year of medical school.
51
I think I had less than 1,000 subscribers.
52
We'd just gone into lockdown.
53
I think it was a year after Molly May came out of the Love Island Villa
54
and to give you a bit of a better picture of what Faye looked like in
55
that era she had ass-length blonde extensions
56
that cost her quite a lot of money every month
57
and I would sit and I'd edit these videos for my YouTube channel
58
that absolutely no one was watching and it would take me hours
59
and hours and hours and hours
60
and I remember vividly like lying in my bed at three in the morning trying to keep editing this video
61
because I wanted it to get up the next day for about five people to watch this video.
62
I'm editing, I'm editing, I'm editing
63
and I remember things to myself like Faye you just need to go to bed
64
and you know what popped into my head at that moment?
65
My BHAG goal and you know what my BHAG goal was?
66
To be the next Molly Mae because I did not want to be paying for my hair extensions, paying £100 for my long-ass length blonde hair extensions every couple of weeks.
67
Obviously my had goals have changed a little bit since 2020
68
but I can hand on heart say that
69
that is what got me through the hours and hours and hours of editing when no one was watching my YouTube videos.
70
What I'm trying to say is you absolutely need that north star to guide you.
71
When things get tough you have to have that vision that gets you through.
72
Maybe it's not Molly May but there will be something.
73
That is the top of the pyramid.
74
Next layer of the pyramid is a goal setting framework that I guarantee you will have never heard of before.
75
And this section is for you if you feel like you are making goals
76
because they're the goals you think you should be working towards.
77
You think you should lose weight in January because everyone else is on a diet and they're losing weight.
78
You think that you should have a goal of earning more money
79
because everyone else is trying to earn more money or you think
80
that your goal should be go to the gym more
81
because everyone else is going to the gym more but
82
that doesn't actually align with what you want from your life
83
and because it doesn't align with what you actually want in your life you inevitably fail
84
but there is a solution I will get to in just a moment
85
but I want to explain why for women specifically again this is
86
so important because there was another 2023 study
87
that found women may be more likely to achieve their goals if their motivation is not solely financial.
88
Now, in comparison to men.
89
Now, that might be because for women, it's seen as it's frowned upon a lot of the time to have a financial motivation.
90
Or it could be because women often do have more complex motivations.
91
And I know that when I do this next exercise every single year,
92
I find out that my motivations are so much more complex than just having cash in the bank.
93
So the solution, I'm so sorry
94
if you've ever watched any of my other videos on this before because I'm going to sound like a broken record.
95
You need to do the perfect day exercise.
96
The perfect day exercise is you imagine your day one year from now.
97
So we're at the beginning of 2026.
98
What is your perfect day?
99
The 1st of January 2027.
100
You're going to start from the very beginning in the morning.
101
Where are you waking up?
102
What do you see when you wake up?
103
Who are you waking up next to?
104
Very important question.
105
Every single detail.
106
What are you eating for breakfast?
107
How do you feel in your body?
108
Do you feel tense?
109
Do you feel stressed?
110
Or do you feel relaxed, at ease, like you have purpose?
111
Journal as if you are living out that day.
112
Not I will do this, you say I did this, past tense.
113
Be as specific as you possibly can be.
114
Once you've written freely about what your perfect day looks like, I want you to go through and pick out the key themes from your perfect day a year from now.
115
Now for me, there are always, every single year when I do this, even though the days are different,
116
there are always three key themes that come out for me and that'll be different for everyone.
117
Mine are always a sense of purpose.
118
That is really, really important to me.
119
I'm a firm believer that we spend more time working than we spend with the people we love.
120
So it may as well be something that we find worthwhile.
121
Financial freedom, always a huge one for me.
122
I'm not someone who values fancy, fancy, fancy things, but I'm someone who values the sense of security that finances bring.
123
I think probably growing up I experienced a lot of financial security secondhand from my parents
124
and I'm not ashamed to admit that financial security is important to me.
125
And the third one is balance.
126
Whenever I look back
127
and reflect on my perfect day exercise I always notice how my day doesn't feel rushed
128
and I feel I envision myself to be a lot calmer.
129
So now you have your themes from your perfect day exercise, I need to introduce you to a goal setting framework called the hard goal setting framework.
130
Now this stands for heartfelt, animated, required and difficult.
131
Do not worry guys, all of this is going to be in the notion template.
132
You do not have to remember any of it, but the hard framework and because I really value balance,
133
I think a reason goal setting culture gets such a bad reputation is it's so tightly linked to hustle culture.
134
But I'm a big believer in your goals reflecting all the different domains of your life.
135
So I like to split my life into five different domains as well.
136
So career, finances, health and fitness, mental well-being and my relationships.
137
So often when I feel like my work-life balance is off, one of my relationship goals will be make time to see one person,
138
at least one social interaction every week, which is equally if not more important to address than your career goals.
139
For all these life domains, I want you to pick one to two goals for each of them.
140
We don't want to overcomplicate it, just one to two.
141
And I'm going to give you some examples of different ones.
142
Let's say that in your career, you by December 2026, you want to have passed some sort of qualification
143
or exam that allows you to progress in your career.
144
To make it heartfelt, you might think about the emotions you feel by not having this qualification.
145
So maybe you feel behind in your career
146
or maybe you don't feel like you have the knowledge to do that job well and that makes you anxious.
147
And then to make it animated, you would visually think about how it will feel if you open up that email,
148
that letter, whatever, and you see your exam result or you get that qualification and really visualize every single little detail.
149
Required is where we think about whether this is actually relevant to your life.
150
Is it something that actually needs to happen for you to meet those bigger goals?
151
So if you need that qualification to progress.
152
And then difficult is for you to study for an exam.
153
That is something that will mentally stretch you and be challenging.
154
And if you achieve it, it is a sign of growth.
155
So then for like finances, it might be that you want to save up for a deposit or health and fitness.
156
You might want to strength train three times a week.
157
Mental wellbeing, you might want to start therapy
158
because anxiety is getting in the way of you living your life to the fullest
159
and then relationships like I said one of your goals might be to make sure
160
that you are carving out time for at least one social interaction every single week.
161
Now a quick note on manifestation, I am a woman of science through and through,
162
if I hear one person talk about manifestation as a means of envisioning a car parking space around the corner, I will scream.
163
That is not real.
164
And it also makes a mockery of the actual real life science behind manifestation.
165
Manifestation absolutely 100% works, just not in like this mystical fairyland way.
166
It's basic psychology.
167
When you visualize something happening, you prime your brain to spot those opportunities and carve a path towards achieving that goal.
168
It's not about using the power of your mind to bend spoons.
169
And that's why I think if you look at very traditional goal setting frameworks, like the SMART framework, so having goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, attainable, realistic and time bound,
170
they don't harness the emotions.
171
And that is really what is important when it comes to driving us towards what we actually want.
172
Now I'm going to come on to how you can actually
173
implement all of this on a day-to-day basis in a little bit.
174
But first, I need you to listen to this next step on the pyramid.
175
If you're someone who has so much motivation in January, but then by March, you are tired, you're exhausted, you cannot be bothered anymore.
176
The momentum has worn off.
177
Our brains really struggle with goals that feel too distant.
178
And I think expecting yourself to keep up the momentum of a single goal for 365 days is a lot.
179
But what can help is having a shorter feedback loop.
180
So I like to do 12-week sprints.
181
Now, you may be thinking 12 weeks, isn't that just a quarter, Faye?
182
Well, quarter sounds a little bit too finance bro.
183
So 12-week sprints is what I like to go by.
184
From your goals, from each of your domains, now I want you to look at your 12-week sprint.
185
What can you do in the next 12 weeks to reach that bigger yearly goal?
186
And this is where it gets a little bit fun.
187
So Google, when they set their OKRs, which is like their targets for their employees, they recommend that employees should be hitting 70% of their target.
188
If the Google employees are always hitting 100% of their targets, they are not setting goals that are ambitious enough or
189
if the employees are not hitting their goals obviously they either haven't set good goals
190
or they're not trying hard enough to hit them.
191
I want you to look to the end of your 12-week sprint whatever your goal is
192
and I want you to create a three-tiered system.
193
So we've got the bronze tier this is you keeping your
194
promise to yourself it is kind of the bare minimum of you just meeting that goal.
195
Then we have the silver tier
196
which is I am becoming her I am becoming the girly pop that I want to be.
197
And then we have the goals here, which is, and I hate to say this, that woman, because that is a little bit of a controversial phrase.
198
I'm going to stand by it though, because that woman, who she is, is whatever you want her to be.
199
It's controversial term because I think it's been adopted by trad wife culture and some things I don't feel very aligned towards,
200
but building a version of yourself where you feel you are treating yourself correctly is whatever you want it to be.
201
It does not need to be anything externally validating.
202
It can just be becoming that woman for yourself, can just be becoming someone whose nervous system is regulated,
203
becoming someone who isn't people pleasing, becoming someone who isn't staying late in work every day, who is setting boundaries, who is building work-life balance,
204
who is being more present with their friends and family.
205
Those are your three tiers.
206
Then what you're going to do is you're going to put
207
that goal into the notion template which I'll tell you how to get at the end.
208
At the end of the video we are going to talk about the step
209
that everyone misses and I honestly think is most important
210
but first this is the final rung on our pyramid
211
and it is for you if you have big big big big big dreams
212
but you struggle to implement them into your day-to-day life.
213
I think we can all be really guilty of forgetting about the unsexy groundwork
214
that has to happen for us to get to where we want to get to.
215
So maybe you want to save for a deposit for your first home, but when it actually comes to sitting down and making a budget,
216
that is extremely unattractive.
217
And I completely understand.
218
It is boring and it's not fun.
219
Maybe you want a fed ass and you're only going to the gym once a month because that's not the fun part.
220
Thinking about how nice
221
and juicy you want your bum to look is not as
222
sexy as going to the gym at 5am in the morning when you're tired.
223
So this is how we really break it down into daily manageable goals, which keep us chipping away so that we can just do 1%.
224
And this is actually the biggest life hack in all of this, because honestly, if you do things on a daily basis,
225
you really do not need to be doing much at all.
226
And the example I'm going to give is my biggest goal for 2026, which is super unbelievably unsexy but it is something
227
that I've been trying to do for years
228
and I'm going to verbalize it now so
229
that you can all hold me accountable and
230
that is 2026 is the year that I become a tidy organized girl
231
because I am so ridiculously anal
232
and type A in every single other area of my life you walk into my home
233
and it looks like it's been hit by a bomb
234
and I'm not someone if someone puts in the comments just you know put put things away as you go along
235
doesn't work it does not work
236
that is what I'm trying to get to I want it to become second nature
237
but I think
238
if you don't have the tidy gene it's not part of my regular routine I can't spot
239
when things are untidy until I've got friends coming over and
240
that I realize that I've been living in a mess for the last you know two weeks
241
but I'm done I'm done I want to live in a tidy home
242
and I've recognized does prevent me doing my job
243
because I do not want to film anything ever when my home looks awful.
244
So this is the year I'm tackling it.
245
And the way that I'm tackling it is every single day I'm setting myself the target of doing 10 minutes of tidying.
246
That is it.
247
The flat does not need to be tidy at the end of it.
248
I am just setting myself the target of 10 minutes of tidying every single day.
249
10 minutes is so small and insignificant in the grand scheme of our day.
250
There is never going to be a single day where I do not have just 10 minutes to do the bare minimum.
251
I'm on day seven and I've done it every day
252
so far and actually every single day
253
that I've done it I've ended up going over the 10 minutes
254
because once you get started it's so much easier to keep going.
255
With your own goals what I want you to do is
256
think of the smallest possible thing you could do every single day to try and make that happen.
257
So say if your goal is this year you want to exercise more.
258
The smallest thing you could do every single day is go on a 10 minute walk.
259
Like that is the absolute bare minimum.
260
Some days you go to the gym, some days you go and play like tennis or you go to Pilates or yoga, whatever.
261
The bare minimum is just going for a walk for 10 minutes.
262
You can always make time for 10 minutes.
263
But if you do that 10 minutes every single day, you are going to get so much further than
264
if you set yourself the goal of doing an hour gym session three times a week
265
and then life gets in the way a month in
266
and then you quit and you fail and you don't go to the gym again for three months.
267
Same for me, if I set myself the goal of being a tidy person by doing one big deep clean every week, that becomes this big mountain of a task
268
that I do not want to do and actually one week I miss it
269
and then our goal's out the window and I don't want to be a tidy person anymore.
270
What I need you to do is build an identity around the goal you want to set.
271
So think about the person, say you want to eat healthier.
272
What does someone who eats healthy do every single day?
273
That could be eat their five a day.
274
That could be eat their breakfast.
275
That build that identity and ask yourself, what does that person do every single day?
276
Now pick one or two of those habits.
277
Keep it as simple as possible.
278
One or two habits and you're going to track those habits.
279
We need to be giving ourselves a little dopamine kick every time we tick off for those habits. For me,
280
I am making it a point of telling every single person I come into contact with every single day
281
that I've kept up my 10 minute tidying habit because that makes me feel good about myself.
282
It's small to other people.
283
This is a big, big, big thing for me.
284
It gives me a huge dopamine kick actually.
285
It's a little bit insufferable of me and you will be hearing this for the next 12 months of the year.
286
It could also be a sticker chart.
287
I've seen the most fun TikTok sticker charts where every single day that you keep up your habit, you just pop a little sticker on the chart.
288
In the Notion template, there will also be a habit tracker
289
so you can use Notion or there's so many other habit tracking apps.
290
It does not need to be complicated.
291
It can be as simple as just clicking a button.
292
Our brains are simple, simple, simple things.
293
Like we make them so much more complex brain likes to feel like it did good thing.
294
You press a button, you feel like you did a good thing, you get a little dopamine kick.
295
It's really, really simple.
296
The most important thing is you track it however you choose to do it.
297
Now, little bonus point, if you want to attach this habit to something you already do anyway.
298
So for example, if you want to get more steps in, you may have to travel to work anyway.
299
So you might walk instead of getting the bus.
300
I know for me, for me to get to the tube station,
301
I can either do a 10 minute bus or a 20 minute walk just by walking instead of getting the bus.
302
I've done that habit, but I've also attached that habit to something I was going to do anyway.
303
When we create that link, it's called habit stacking.
304
And it just makes it so much easier for us to stick to because we remember it.
305
We do the thing we were going to do anyway.
306
And we think, oh wait, I can do my habit right now.
307
Finally, this is the step most people miss.
308
I think the reason most people hate goal setting is
309
because I think we've all failed at it and then after we failed at it, we felt shit and then we've blamed the goal setting for our feelings of feeling shit.
310
It's not a failure of us, it's often failure of the environments around us.
311
We set our goals
312
when we're in this fresh new year state of mind with loads of energy
313
and then life gets in the way and our goals don't happen.
314
We get tired, we get busy.
315
So this is the most important section when it comes to actually making sure you get to your goals.
316
It is the pre-mortem.
317
Now, you may have heard of a post-mortem.
318
This is what is done after someone has died to try and work out why they died.
319
In the pre-mortem, we are going to try
320
and predict why your goals will fail and put in strategies to try and stop them from failing.
321
Let's say your goal is to eat healthier in 2026
322
but you have a really busy day at work and you come home and you order a delivery because you're tired.
323
Maybe you want to go to the gym consistently but then one night you stay up late, you can't get to sleep so you sleep in.
324
Or maybe you want to save more
325
but then you go on a couple of big nights out and you completely blow your budget.
326
What has happened to me in the past when I've set goals and then failed at them, I have had this really like all or nothing mindset.
327
If I fail the goal, that's it.
328
Throw in the towel, throw in all the hard work that you've done previously.
329
forget about it completely it was never going to happen you're never capable think
330
that you were never capable of doing that in the first place
331
that is completely the wrong attitude we want to look through each of our habits
332
or our goals and identify a trigger so maybe
333
if you want to eat healthier look at your triggers for eating foods
334
that are less nutritional I don't want to put foods in good
335
or bad because I don't think that's healthy but foods that you don't feel aligned to your goals.
336
I order takeaways whenever I'm tired and work.
337
I am a big emotional eater.
338
My weapon of choice is a Cadbury's dairy milk, big bar, the entire thing.
339
I also tend to eat more unhealthily depending on the environment I'm in.
340
So one of the hospitals I worked at had a Gregg's at the train station
341
and when I came out of work I was tired, I was hungry, I hadn't had a snack all day.
342
It was a Gregg's straight away.
343
So now we've identified the triggers we can kind of work on how we can prevent it.
344
So for example if you know you're someone who when you get tired that is when you want a takeaway.
345
I tried out Simmer last year and I always kind of begrudged meal prepping services
346
because in the back of my head I kind of I
347
felt like that's quite an expensive thing to pay for
348
when I could just get myself off my arse
349
and meal prep myself but I never meal prepped myself
350
and then I always ended up spending more money on the takeaways anyway
351
so I found having a couple Simmer meals in my fridge
352
that I knew were pretty nutritious
353
and I could just stick them in the microwave for a couple of minutes
354
and that was my dinner done or having some really good quick easy meals.
355
Dr. Megan was on the podcast and she gave a really really really good quick 15 minute gut friendly meal.
356
I also have a bean pita 12 minute dinner recipe
357
that I shared in a vlog recently
358
that I will link on screen now as well or if you're an emotional eater I am and I found that
359
actually sitting with my emotions and tracing back my steps
360
and thinking about why my nervous system feels a bit dysregulated
361
and just addressing that head on sometimes stops me in my tracks from devouring the entire dairy milk bar.
362
I will still probably have a couple of chunks but it just stops that.
363
I'm quite bad for just like eating beyond my hunger
364
because I'm just trying to give myself an emotional hug which is not healthy.
365
Also finding delicious more nutritious options the deliciously Ella salted almonds.
366
Oh my gosh, they were a recent discovery.
367
Wow, love them.
368
And if you're someone who works near a Gregg's, McDonald's, Burger King, KFC, whatever, maybe even considering taking a different route home
369
or having a snack before you leave work so
370
that you're not walking past and smelling the fries and putting temptation in your way.
371
Now you have some preventative measures in place.
372
You also have to plan for what happens
373
when you inevitably fail to keep up your goal because I'm going to be completely real with you.
374
Life happens and life should happen.
375
We are meant to live.
376
We are meant to go out and socialize with friends.
377
We are meant to enjoy delicious, not very nutritious meals.
378
We are meant to stay up late because we're having a good time.
379
Like life should not be all about keeping up with our goals and our habits.
380
And it's kind of beautiful that they will inevitably fail.
381
But what is important is how you react to them.
382
And remembering that when they fail, you don't just throw away all the work.
383
You get back on the horse and you just keep going
384
because it's not a sign that you are a failure of a person
385
or you lack discipline it's a sign that you know
386
when living life is more important than just ticking a box
387
and getting your quick dopamine fix so
388
if you want to click there is a link in the description
389
that will take you to the free notion template
390

391

- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als tidy, pyramid, notion.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
