Audit. Align. Activate: Your Most Intentional Week Starts Now

🔥 Episode Summary:

This week on Glow Wild, we’re doing more than just setting goals — we’re getting aligned. This isn’t your typical Sunday planning session. This is a full-on life audit, a reset for your habits, and a deep dive into how to build a productive, purpose-filled week that actually feels good.

Nicole walks you through the exact steps to reset your week with clarity, focus, and intention — using science-backed strategies to reflect, realign, and reignite your goals. If you’ve been feeling burned out, stuck, or like you’re busy but going nowhere… this one’s for you.

You’ll learn how to:

• Reflect meaningfully on your week with a life audit
