When we set goals for ourselves, it’s easy to get ambitious. Maybe sometimes a little too ambitious. So we break big goals down into smaller tasks, we create systems for accountability and progress-tracking, but is this really the answer? When a goal seems to require an entire personality overhaul, it’s time to reevaluate.
Today’s guest, Tara McMullin, offers her refreshing perspective on productivity and the deeper implications of the goals we set.
Tara is a writer, podcaster, and entrepreneur. Fresh off her debut book What Works, she discusses goal-setting and productivity. Are our goals truly our own? Moreover, is the path towards success identical for everyone? What should the process look like? The answers may surprise you, and might just give you a little peace of mind.

Hey, I'm Debbie...
I host the New World Normal podcast and write Breaking Normal... both dedicated to calling BS on the ‘rules’ that keep us stuck and burned out. Around here, we don’t do hustle-worship or cookie-cutter self-help. Instead, you’ll find practical tools, bold conversations, and a whole lot of permission to design life on your own terms. As a coach, I help values-driven rebels ditch the ‘shoulds,’ align with what actually matters, and build lives they can’t wait to wake up to. Beyond the mic and the keyboard, I’m a mom to two grown kids, proud dog rescuer, nature-lover, and live music chaser. And I believe this deeply: we don’t thrive alone... we thrive in community.
