Do you have dreams and goals that you want to go after but haven't made much progress yet? This week's conversation with Gabe Cox (@gabecox_redhotmindset) will hopefully inspire you to start taking baby steps forward on your unique journey as we discuss the power of letting your kids see you win.

When Gabe Cox was a young mom, she had a mentor share with her that her kids had asked her, "What do you do, mom?" She had nothing to tell them except what she did for her children. Her entire life was about them.

Investing in and being intentional with our children and families is so important, but for Gabe, she also realized that she wanted her kids to see what going after a goal, trying, failing, and learning looked like. She wanted her kids to see what doing something hard looked like and give them permission to do the same.

For her, that looks like running races, qualifying for the Boston Marathon, and writing a book. Fast forward many years, and her oldest son is working to compete in the Olympics as a gymnast. As she has watched him try and fail and learn and improve, she is now inspired by him.

Here are three pillars to setting and crushing goals:

See it: Create your vision! What is something that is on your heart? Write it all down - big and small goals. What is something that you could do that is a little bit outside your comfort zone? That is where you will grow.
Plan it: The plan needs to fit your capacity and your season. Know that you will have to adjust and be flexible.
Do it: You have to be in motion. Gabe shares that there is a place to wait on God, but He can work more in our lives when we are doing something for Him to work with.
