Wrapping Up 2022 with a Personal Year-In-Review

The end of 2022 is approaching and it’s a great time to reflect on what you want to celebrate, what you want to cultivate, what you’re ready to release, and what you’re ready to receive.

Join me as I share some personal stories and reflections from this past year. Plus, lots of ideas and inspiration for creating your own year-in-review!



What is a Personal Year-In-Review?

A personal year-in-review is a fun and helpful way to check in with yourself and look back through the year. Taking a few minutes to explore what has happened in the past year (without dwelling on the past) can help you celebrate the good in life and help you decide what you might want to focus on for the new year.

As you reflect, listen to your intuition. Here are a few tips:

  • Take what you can from the experience.

  • There’s no need to force it or effort through your reflections.

  • Let this be fun, easy, and uplifting.

  • There is no formal process or “right” way to review your year.

  • Take it in bitesize pieces and do what feels good.

Step One: What Are the Main Areas of Your Life?

As you start your personal year-in-review, consider what the main areas are of your life. What are the different areas of your life where you show up or exist? There’s no need to rank or prioritize these. You can choose anything and order them however you want.

Keep reading for the six main areas of my life that I’m reflecting on for 2022.

Step Two: Ask Yourself These 4 Questions

Once you have the main areas, ask yourself these four questions for each:

  • “What do I want to celebrate?”

  • “What do I want to cultivate?”

  • “What am I ready to release?”

  • “What am I ready to receive?”

As you’re reflecting and reviewing your year, see if you notice any themes or trends. Give yourself permission to explore anything deeper that piques your interest and really let go of whatever isn’t serving you in this process.

Once you’ve completed your personal year-in-review, see what you feel inspired to do next. What is your intuition telling you? Do you want to share your reflections? Burn them? Place them where you can see them for awhile? Or are you ready to do a little manifesting?

Step Three: Play with Manifesting In the Year Ahead

Once you have reflected on your main areas and completed your personal year-in-review, a fun next step is to play with manifesting.

Take a few deep, cleansing breaths, and then fast-forward to the end of 2023.

Imagine yourself sitting down at the end of 2023. Now ask yourself the same four questions in each of the main areas of your life. What are you celebrating and cultivating? What are you ready to release and receive as you move into 2024?
