2025 reflection & 2026 intention-setting workshop

We often forget that our story is ours to write. Caught in the rush of life, we move from one task to the next, rarely pausing to breathe or reflect. The new year invites us to pause, honor the chapter we’ve lived, and begin the next with intention and clarity. This guided reflection and intention-setting workshop is your pause: a space to release what no longer serves you, honor the growth you’ve achieved, and step into 2026 feeling lighter, focused, and intentional about your next chapter.

You feel it...

- The pressure when a year ends to tie up loose ends.  - The guilt that you "should" be further ahead, forgetting that you've grown more than you realize. - The uncertainty of what's next, paired with the fear of repeating old habits. - The whisper of big dreams for the new year, but not knowing where to start.

As this chapter closes, you…

- Have grown, stretched, and endured more than you thought you could. - Faced surprises, detours, and roadblocks, and kept going anyway. - Reached milestones, yet sense there’s still more waiting for you. And that’s worth pausing to acknowledge.

Close the year with clarity. Step into the new year with intention.

- Most of us rush into the next year without ever truly closing the last one. - We set goals because we feel like we "should," not because they reflect our true desires. - We carry the same energy, fears, and unfinished stories, year after year. Until we choose differently.

Isabelle is a writer, speaker, and founder of The Mindful Journal. She has launched multiple journals, hosted workshops to hundreds of participants, built a global wellbeing brand. Journaling has been her transformative tool since childhood, and now she's here to guide you through the same process.

This workshop is your safe space.

Your breath between the old and new. A sacred space to reflect with honesty, gratitude, and grace.  A place to step forward with clarity, confidence, and courage.

Imagine what your life would look like if...

- You allowed yourself to dream a little bigger.  - You felt the courage to release what no longer fits the person you're becoming. - You stopped chasing alignment and started living it. - You made space for what could be, instead of clinging to what was. This is not wishful thinking; it's a mindset and practice you can cultivate.

Writing down your goals makes you 42% more likely to achieve them.

Taking time to reflect on the past and set clear intentions for what’s ahead doesn’t just feel good; it rewires your focus, energy, and confidence. Your next chapter deserves that kind of clarity.

You're probably thinking...

"I've tried goal-setting before, but it doesn't stick." "I don't have time for reflection, I just want to move on." "I don't even know what I want next year." That's exactly why this workshop exists.  We won't just write lists or make resolutions.  You'll be guided into deeper layers so you can release and create based on who you're becoming.

What People Are Saying

In July, I attended a journaling workshop given by Isabelle from The Mindful Journal. 🤍 The space she created for all who were present was so peaceful and safe. Her calming voice and patience made sure you could relax and be in the moment with yourself. I have been journaling for a long time, but stopped because I wasn't making time for it like I used to. This workshop was a good reminder of why I missed it so much🥺

I loved Isabelle's journaling workshop!💕 You can really tell she speaks from the heart and puts so much passion into what she does. I left feeling way more ready to dive into my own internal work, and I actually feel like I understand how to navigate the more difficult topics now.

Journaling with Isabelle is a breath of fresh air. She doesn’t just guide you during her workshop, she gives you different perspectives and teaches you to be kind to yourself while journaling🤍

When I first joined one of the workshops, I honestly didn’t expect much from myself when it came to journaling. I didn’t have a lot of experience with it. But I showed up with an open mind and heart, ready to learn something new, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences ever. After the session, I felt so much more connected to my journal and more confident every time I sat down to write. Since that day, I’ve been journaling every day, and I absolutely love it.
