My Ins and Outs for 2025


Everyone is making these lists and I love them. They feel like a low-stakes way to to set some soft goals (and anti-goals) for the year. Below are my what to leave in 2024 with little or no explanation. 2025 is going to be our best year yet!


IN:

Underconsumption

Low Buys

Shopping smarter

Smelling really good

Burning all my nice candles instead of saving them

Taking myself on solo dates

Read more books (I read 32 last year)

Mocktails

Random compliment to strangers

ChatGPT to write emails

7500 Steps

Yoga

Waiting until something is perfect

Sitting at my desk when it’s clearly not productive
