    Review Q3 and Plan Q4

You’ve got dreams. But you’re stuck in survival mode.

You want to be intentional with your time—but most days, you’re just trying to keep up.

Planning isn’t the problem. It’s how we’ve been taught to plan.
Rigid systems.

Endless to-do lists.

The pressure to “optimize” every minute.


No wonder it feels like a chore.


But what if planning felt like a ritual you actually looked forward to?


What if it felt like relief—a place to reconnect with yourself, your joy, and what really matters?

Introducing:

Plan Goal Plan Retreat (Virtual)

A transformative experience that gives you more than a plan—it gives you a personalized ritual for growth.

Through my 4-phase method, you’ll walk away with:

  • A vision-aligned roadmap for your year

  • Meaningful goals broken into clear action plans

  • Daily rituals that ground and energize you

  • And a flexible system to stay focused—no matter what life throws your way

The main sheet displays a color-coded header row with categories including Birthdays, Anniversaries, Vacations & Getaways, Holidays, School Breaks, Work Events, and Appointments.

This isn’t just about getting more done.

It’s about becoming who you're meant to be.

Meet Danielle

Professor. Mom. Recovering Overachiever.

After 20 years of teaching and guiding others through learning and self-discovery, I realized something important: even with all the knowledge, systems, and strategies in the world, I still felt overwhelmed.

Between the demands of work, motherhood, and community, I had lost touch with myself. Every day felt like a scramble, even the things I loved began to feel like chores. I was surrounded by planning systems and productivity books—but none of them made space for the magic and meaning I craved.

One day, journaling in a rare moment of quiet, I realized I couldn't even name what I was truly good at anymore.

That was the turning point.

I didn’t want a rigid system that pushed me harder. I wanted a life I actually wanted to live. One filled with meaningful work and magical moments—with my family, my community, and myself.

So I created Plan Goal Plan—a playful, practical approach to planning and goal setting that centers on you: your joy, your values, your rhythm.

Rooted in research, lived experience, and real-life practice, this framework helps high-achieving women move past burnout and into clarity, courage, and sustainable success.

Today, I’m a professor, life coach, and host of the Plan Goal Plan podcast, ranked in the top 1.5% globally. I help women just like you align ambition with meaning—through intentional rituals, vision-driven goals, and strategies that feel as good as they work.

Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

✔ A planning ritual that feels like a mini-retreat—restorative, energizing, and all yours
✔ Goal-setting that sparks delight, not dread
✔ A system that meets you where you are—even in your busiest season
✔ A The confidence to move forward, one joyful step at a time


Emotional Wins:
✨ Clarity about where you’re headed
✨ Confidence in your daily actions
✨ Relief from burnout and overwhelm
✨ Empowerment to say yes (and no) with purpose
✨ Hope for a year that feels aligned and fulfilling

“This isn’t just about getting organized—it’s about transforming how you live. Through reflective rituals, deep connection, and intentional design, you’ll emerge with not only a plan—but a renewed sense of self.”

— Danielle McGeough

Real Women. Real Transformation.

  • One of the biggest breakthroughs Danielle helped me with was building a ritual planning time that I look forward to doing!!! I never thought planning could actually be fun-thank you Danielle for helping me change my mindset and for equipping me this way!

  • Working with Danielle and the amazing ladies in the masterclass, our “growth container,” helped me to establish a nightly ritual to celebrate my day, prepare for the day ahead, and relax for the sleep that makes everything else possible. Danielle’s framework and teaching invite each person to determine what she needs, and build a fulfilling and enjoyable ritual around it.

  • Before working with Danielle, I felt stuck. After working with her, I feel like I can conquer the world! Incorporating little things each day or each week eventually will lead to bigger things. I am in my busiest “season” right now and I have always felt myself saying “I will make changes when this is over and I am not so busy.” Joining made me realize that I can plan during this crazy time for me, even if it seems like small insignificant things. I feel like I have noticed my needs and been able to take charge and be more productive. I can’t wait to keep going and see what the rest of the year brings!
