How to build your 5-year plan on easy mode (and create your dream life!)

Do you cringe when someone asks, “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
Most achievers love the idea of having a plan but freeze up trying to make one. In this episode, Amber walks you through a simple, values-based process to design a 5- and 10-year plan you’ll actually stick with. No overwhelm, no overthinking… just clarity, direction, and next steps.
🎯 In this episode we riff on:
↠ Why classic 5-year planning feels impossible (it’s not your fault)
↠ A quick values-first exercise that clarifies direction fast
↠ How to turn vague goals into checkable outcomes
↠ “Week in the life” prompts to design the future you actually want
↠ Why writing it down trains your RAS (reticular activating system) to spot opportunities
Pause the episode, do the prompts with me, and by the end you’ll have a plan that feels inspiring, not overwhelming.
