How to Renew Your Mindset and Goals This August

Renew your motivation this August—because new beginnings aren’t just for January. Let’s be honest—life is messy. Sometimes your perfectly curated “five-year plan” gets a plot twist you never saw coming. For me, that twist came in the form of a dream I thought I was building. My retail store was my baby, and I envisioned it evolving into a chain. I was making strides, working tirelessly, and pouring every ounce of my energy into it. But what I didn’t see was the slow, creeping burnout that was taking over.

I was spreading myself too thin and not enjoying life. The passion that had once fueled me was being replaced by exhaustion and a constant feeling of being overwhelmed. The path I was on wasn’t just difficult; it was completely unsustainable. This realization hit me like a ton of bricks. It was the death of a dream I had fought so hard for, and allowing myself to reflect on that was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.

Renewal Isn’t About Erasing the Past

The word renew isn’t about ignoring what has happened; it’s about giving yourself grace and choosing to move forward anyway. For me, it meant accepting that the person I was—the one who thought more, bigger, and faster was the only way to succeed—was no longer serving me. My journey was no longer about expanding; it was about pivoting. I had to get to a place where I could honestly evaluate what was working and what wasn’t.

And in that time of reflection, I realized I wasn’t alone. I discovered that so many of us are on a similar journey, chasing success in a way that’s actually making us sick. It was in that moment, with a deep sense of shared vulnerability, that the idea for My Healing Suite was born.

My renewal is about more than just a fresh start. It’s about getting to a place where I have control over my destiny, not letting my destiny control me. It’s about creating a life and a business that feels good, feels right, and allows me to show up as my best self.

Ready for a fresh start? It’s time to renew your goals and mindset—August is your month to reset, refocus, and rise.

Your Next Chapter Is Waiting

This August, let’s embrace the messy, magical, and in-progress versions of ourselves. You don’t have to overhaul your entire life by Friday. You just need to show up—renewed—and take one small, intentional step. Pour the good coffee, light a candle, and ask yourself what’s still worth fighting for.

At My Healing Suite, we’re here to cheer you on, with every intention-setting circle and every “you got this” bracelet. Because your next chapter isn’t waiting for everything to be perfect—it’s waiting for you to begin.
