You know those people who everyone thinks have it all together? Usually, they’re ambitious but feel a constant tug inside that something is missing. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the Plan Goal Plan Podcast! I’m Danielle McGeough—professor, mom, planner addict, and recovering overachiever. I help high achievers develop balance so they can experience the fulfillment everyone thinks they already have. After years of hustle and grind, I accomplished a huge goal only to realize...I felt lost. I was tired of trying harder. I was ready to try easier.
This podcast is your invitation to plan for clarity, set goals for direction, and act with purpose—and yes, delight! Together, we’ll explore simple, sustainable ways to reclaim your time and reconnect with what matters. Whether you’re aiming to crush a work project, cultivate healthy habits, or create magical memories with your family, I’ll guide you with tools and practices that turn habits into meaningful practices, routines into uplifting rituals, and productivity into real possibilities.
If you’re ready to feel less scattered and more focused without piling on more pressure, grab your favorite pen (you know the one)! Let’s get started and craft a life filled with meaning, magic, and moments of joy—gently, playfully, and with care for yourself and those you love.

How to Plan Your 2026: Goals, Themes, and Fresh Starts | Ep. 271
Ever wonder what happens AFTER someone sets their goals? Well, buckle up because I'm pulling back the curtain on how I'm planning 2026—the messy parts, the exciting parts, and everything in between!
In this episode, I'm sharing my complete goal-setting process, from the journaling I started back in October (yes, October!) to how I'm turning big dreams into actual calendar blocks. You'll hear about the weekend my husband and I spent mapping out our family goals, why I only set 8 goals a year, and the exact system I use to move from "wouldn't it be nice" to "this is actually happening."
Here's what we're covering:
How to move goals from ideas to your actual calendar (this is where the magic happens!)
My framework for choosing just 2 goals per quarter instead of overwhelming yourself with 12
The difference between planning in your natural rhythms vs. fighting against them
Why starting early doesn't mean having it all figured out (I'm still working on my word of the year!)
Plus, I'm announcing some BIG changes coming to Plan Goal Plan in 2026:
Monthly themes for every episode (January is all about "Begin"!)
More solo episodes where you get my unfiltered thoughts
Guest episodes with major authors (January's guest is chef's kiss)
New quarterly retreats and intimate group coaching cohorts
If you're a woman in a high-pressure job who wants to pursue bold goals without losing yourself—even when life feels banana pants—this episode is your permission slip to plan with intention AND lightness.
Ready to make 2026 your year? Let's do this together.
Mentioned in this episode:
Sense the Possibilities Planner & Journal (20+ worksheets to help you connect with yourself before setting goals)
Plan Goal Plan 2026 Weekly Planner
Quarterly Plan Goal Plan Your Year Retreats (dates at plangoalplan.com/retreats)
