1 BIG IDEA
Bold goals aren’t just strategic—they’re sovereign. When women leaders own bold, measurable goals, they don’t just reach new outcomes—they transform how they lead, influence, and thrive.

4 WAYS TO APPLY THIS

• Challenge the inner critic that says “just be grateful” or “stay quiet.”
• Recognize where you’ve softened your goals to stay safe or likable.
• Use the B.O.L.D. Framework to test if your goal is Brave, Owned, Leading, and Defined.
• Revisit your midyear goals and ask: do these stretch me into who I’m becoming?

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

• Where have I been playing small in my business or leadership?
• What is one bold, measurable goal I’ve been afraid to name out loud?
• What would be possible—for me and for others—if I committed to that goal?
