1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 In the first episode of 2026, I discuss a reflective approach to setting personal and professional goals for the new year on The Freelancers Tea Break. I share my achievements from the previous year, including completing my ILM 7 diploma and writing a book titled 'The Freelance Lifestyle.' This episode emphasises an experimental and low-pressure strategy for goal setting, focusing on starting or stopping small habits, doing less of certain activities, and introducing more positive ones. I also tease upcoming episodes and January challenges, targeting areas such as finding new clients and improving digital presence.&amp;nbsp; Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome to The Freelancers Tea Break 2026&amp;nbsp; 01:17 Reflecting on Personal Achievements&amp;nbsp; 02:54 Exciting Announcements for January&amp;nbsp; 04:13 Gentle Questions for the New Year&amp;nbsp; 04:26 Experimenting with New Habits&amp;nbsp; 09:47 Community Engagement and Challenges&amp;nbsp; 11:58 Looking Ahead: Upcoming Episodes and Goals Affiliate link for In Good Company who I completed my diploma with and their podcast The Coaching Crowd Follow me on Instagram Follow me on Bluesky Email: hello@emmacossey.com&amp;nbsp; Come join us in the free Freelance Lifestylers Facebook group Want more support?
