AP 750: My Do Something List Recap for 2025 || Growth Spurt

Author: Cloud10 January 14, 2026 Duration: 28:54
As I sat glued to the couch with my flu-stricken voice, I found myself reflecting on my goals for 2026 with unexpected waves of fear and overwhelm. Goals and I have had a complicated history; they once defined my life, yet I stepped away from them for nearly a decade. However, the Do Something List, born from a need to explore rather than achieve, has become an anchor in my life. Looking back at 2025, I marvel at how this list has helped me stay grounded through another transformative year. As we approach 2026, I'm filled with hope and anticipation. There's so much ahead—turning 40, the podcast's 10th anniversary, and a book launch, among other things. My focus for the year is to embrace rest and hobbies, ensuring my Do Something List reflects these needs. Join me as we embark on this year of growth and exploration together!

Monica Packer, a coach and host, guides About Progress with a refreshingly grounded perspective. She operates from a simple but powerful idea: meaningful change in our health, fitness, education, and mental well-being isn't about becoming a flawless machine. Instead, this podcast explores the tangible, often messy steps of real growth. You'll hear conversations that feel like a supportive talk with a clear-eyed friend-someone who offers both compassion and a necessary nudge forward. Each episode is designed to move you from intention to action, focusing on strategies that integrate into an imperfect life. The discussions naturally span the categories of self-improvement, from practical fitness tips to mental health insights, all without demanding perfection. This isn't about theoretical ideals; it's about what works when you're juggling the complexities of daily living. Tune in for a resource that feels both gentle and effective, a space where progress is measured in sustainable shifts rather than dramatic overhauls. The About Progress podcast, from Cloud10, builds a community around this practical approach, offering listeners the tools to grow in ways that genuinely stick. You can expect candid stories, actionable advice, and a consistent reminder that moving forward is always possible, exactly where you are.
