Hey friends! In this New Year's episode, I'm giving you two things: the quick-hit ChatGPT framework I use to set goals in under 5 minutes (it's v different, but I honestly love it), AND the one resolution that actually changed my life 2 years ago.

In this episode, I cover:

• The 5-step ChatGPT goal framework (with the exact prompts)
• Why setting goals can sometimes compound shame
• The story of an Airbnb lie that changed my approach to goal setting
• How to use AI without outsourcing your sovereignty

Welcome to 2026. Fire horse energy. No apologies.

SHOW NOTES:

Step 1: Get clear on WHAT you want

Step 2: Go deeper into WHY

• Feed ChatGPT your current whys
• "Given these whys, what are other whys that would fuel me? Profile me and understand my come-from—what would really drive me this year?"
• Include both global why (impact on others) AND selfish why (what YOU get)

Step 3: Define WHO you need to become

• "Who would I have to become for taking these steps to be effortless—ingrained in who I am?"
• Identity shift: "I'm an athlete" vs. "I'm trying to work out"

Step 4: Identify the WORLDVIEW shift

• "What would my worldview have to be to effortlessly assume that identity? What do I need to believe about [topic] so deeply that taking action feels safe?"

Step 5: Create a RANDOM DAY (between 10-20) micro-commitment plan

• Why 17? Long enough to build habit, weird enough to enforce accountability
• "Give me micro-learning commitments that affirm my identity and get me into action"
• Build confidence → competence → confidence loop

BONUS Step 6: Root in abundance, not lack

• "Remind me that where I am now is perfect. Remind me of my worth and lovability so I can take action from a regulated, empowered place—not from shame."

TRUTH-TELLING PROMPTS:

• "Here are ways I know I lie: [list]. Why do I lie? What's the story underneath? The worldview? The fear?"
• "Help me find experiments to be 5% more truthful in my daily life"
• "What would telling the truth look like in this situation: [describe]?"
• "What are different games or activities I could try on to start implementing this with more ease?"

In this episode of Soul Fully Human, I’m sitting down with Ellee Best (cosmic --and actual-- neighbor, co-conspirator, fellow truth-teller) for a real, unscripted conversation about the moment most people get stuck in:

When you can’t stay who you’ve been…but becoming who you are feels terrifyingly exposed.

We talk about the questions nobody can answer for you — but everyone keeps trying to outsource:

• Why does the thing I’m most MEANT to do feel so freaking scary?
• What if I actually stop trying to be legible, marketable, impressive… and I’m still not chosen?
• How do you reinvent yourself when everyone already thinks they “know” you?
• Why does “going within” feel impossible precisely when you need it the most?
• What is the only thing needed to become magnetic, instead of performative?

We also share a handful of soulful AI prompts you can use when you’re looking to get real with yourself about what's next for you.

If you’ve been feeling that quiet internal pressure of:
“I can’t keep doing this… but I don’t know what comes next,”...this one will meet you.

===============================================================================

SOULFUL AI PROMPTS:

1. “Give me undeniable, irrefutable evidence that going within is the safest place in the world.”

Context:
Used for people who are afraid to sit with themselves, meditate, or slow down — especially when they’re dysregulated or in crisis.

2. “Tell me why going within is fun/ [Insert your biggest value here].”=

Context:
This reframes inner work from duty or survival into pleasure, curiosity, and desire.

3. “Give me evidence that everything I’ve ever wanted is behind me going within.”

Context:
For people who believe the treasure is “out there” — success, validation, love, clarity — instead of inside.

4. Perspective-Shifting Delivery Prompts

Some versions of this same prompt:

4. "Help me have a crush on my purpose.../ my shadows"

Context:
Turning fear, resistance, and avoidance into erotic curiosity and aliveness.

5. “What’s the ‘if only they knew’ thing I’m holding back?” / “Based on what you know about me, what expression of myself am I withholding?”

Context:
For revealing suppressed truth, expression, or identity.

6. “What would I say if nobody asked — but?”

Context:
For revealing where you are still waiting for permission to share/express.

This episode started as a question on a plane ride home: What's the difference between content that moves us and content that just... exists?

The answer? Soulfulness.

That emergent property—the thing that happens when your thoughts, emotions, and words are completely congruent. The resonance you feel in your bones when someone writes from a place of truth.

AI can learn grief intellectually. But it's never cried in the bathtub on a Sunday morning and shown up to work anyway. It's never felt the ache that makes you need to create. And that's the unique human touch only YOU got.

In this episode, I break down:

• The psychology and science behind soulfulness
• The difference between understanding something cognitively vs. feeling it in your bones
• How to use AI to amplify your soulfulness, not strip it away
• 5 practices for training AI on your energetics so it reflects YOU back, not some polished robot version

Here's the truth: AI can give you the template for a song, an Instagram post, a piece of content. But only you know how you write. Only you know what place in your body you create from. Only you have the lump in your throat that needs to speak.

If you're a creative, a coach, or a personal brand wondering how to stay resonant in an AI-flooded world—this one's for you.

===============================================================================

SOULFUL AI PROMPTS:

1. AI as Mirror, Not Master

• "Clean this up and make it flow better, but don't take the heart, essence, and soul out of what I had to share."
• "What is the emotional tone of this? What feeling is brewing underneath this piece of writing?"
• "If I were to feel [emotion] 20% more here, how do you think this would've been different? What could I have said? Where might you invite me to stretch more into that feeling?"

2. Train AI on Your Energetics

• "What is the vibe of my voice based on [feed it journal entries, DMs, poetic rants, voice note transcriptions]?"
• "What words, cadences, or emotions do I consistently repeat?"
• "How might you describe me?"
• "Remember this as [Your Name]'s voice. Is this congruent with [Your Name]'s voice?"
• "If we were to turn up the volume of [Your Name]'s voice 20% more in this piece of content, what might that look like?"

3. Widen Your Perspectives

• "Rewrite this but as a love letter to my past self."
• "Rewrite this but add a tone of [reverence, longing... etc.]."
• "Rewrite this but make it sound like an even more honest version of me, based on what you actually know about me."

4. Get Friction & Feedback

• "Does this sound like me? What do you think I think, feel, and believe based off of these words?"
• "What do you sense that I'm trying to say that I haven't said yet?"
• "If I were more brave/courageous/honest, what do you think I haven't said yet?"
• "Where am I not congruent in this writing?"
