Monthly Review and July Intentions

Monthly Review and July Intentions

Bliss is within you. All you have to do is listen for it.

In this episode of Bliss’n Up, I take you through my end-of-month ritual using the “Live With Intention” framework—a simple yet powerful way to reflect, reset, and realign. I share what energized me in June (hello, beach days and group coaching breakthroughs), what drained me (that impossible puzzle!), and the surprising life lesson I learned during a rainy Thursday run. I also reveal July’s theme—Enjoy—and invite you to embrace the joyful rhythm of mid-summer. If you’ve been moving too fast to notice what’s working (or not), this episode is your gentle nudge to pause, reflect, and intentionally design the next chapter.

Key Points Discussed

1. Introduction

  • This episode is a chance to pause and reflect before heading into July.

  • I walk you through my “Live With Intention” framework—a monthly ritual to notice, name, and nurture what matters.

2. June Recap – What I Noticed

  • June’s theme was Energize June, focused on what gives or drains energy.

  • I noticed that:

    • Tidying my space boosts my energy.

    • A challenging puzzle ended up draining me instead of relaxing me.

    • Travel and being mindful of wellness on vacation was revitalizing.

    • Jenna Kutcher’s “Summer of Systems” podcast episode inspired me to systematize my business.

    • I revisited Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell and began a (brief!) time-energy audit.

3. Personal Growth Through the DARE Group & Running in the Rain

  • Launching my DARE group brought early self-doubt but transformed into a deeply energizing experience when I leaned into service and consistency.

  • A rainy Thursday run turned unexpectedly blissful—showing how magic happens when you stay committed to routines, even when they don’t always feel magical at first.

4. Naming July’s Theme

  • July is the true summer month—light, joyful, and free from school or end-of-year vibes.

  • The theme for July is: Enjoy.

    • Think: fun in the sun, mangoes, longer days, and summer birthdays.

    • Even if you’re working, the rhythm of July invites more play, more presence, and more enjoyment.

5. Closing Reflections & Invitation

  • Ask yourself:

    • What energized me in June?

    • What drained me?

    • What do I want to carry forward or leave behind?

    • Who do I want to become in July?

  • Step into July with joyful energy.

  • If you need support aligning your life with your season, I offer 1:1 coaching to help you design clarity, courage, and bliss—on purpose. Book a complimentary consult here: https://calendly.com/carolinedeposada/intro-call

  • Happy July! I’ll see you next week.
