Hello 2026!
Another fresh start to a year & I'm actually taking it at a slower approach this time around. As much as I've set new goals & a vision board as I always do at the start of every new year, for the first time I've set a few goals that make me realign myself & slow down. This year though, I've broken up my goals into 5 different sections. This way I can focus on my goals in a much clearer light & keep an eye on exactly what I want to be achieving.
Personal Goals:
Better my speech & vocabulary
I've always struggled with learning new vocabulary, especially because of the fact I wasn't the best at my English subject at school. As I've got older, I've been interested in educating myself & soaking up information & learning as much as possible. I read more to better my vocabulary, but this year I actually want to use that within my speech. I always question myself if I'm saying words in the right context, so this year I want to be more confident in the way I speak with my words & saying them in the right way. Sounds rather random, but there's nothing more I've wanted than to better my speech to be more elegant & more well spoken than I currently am.
Learn to horse ride
This was actually a vision I had on my board for last year, but life basically was thrown off the rails last year, so I was prioritising my content business over my hobbies. Therefore this year, I want to actually one, face a fear, and two, learn to actually ride a horse. Who knows whether I'll like it or not, but it's more about the fact I actually want to give it a proper go & see how I get on. As all I can vision is going for a hack through the English countryside with a beautiful horse, maybe on my own eventually or even with friends.
Be slower in talking & everyday life
The reason for this goal is, I'm constantly rushing a lot of the time. I'm terrible for rushing through life, as much as I adore slow moments, I'm not taking my time enough with everyday life and this has moved into the way I speak too. Which is something I'd rather reverse, as I cause myself a lot of stress when I rush things and not pay as much attention to what I'm doing and want to be achieving with my time. Hence why I want to be doing things at a slower pace and not stressing myself out over little things.
Be more intentional in the everyday
This again ties in with being slower, but I want to do everything more intentionally. Paying way more attention to what I'm actually doing, whether it's whilst baking, or reading a book or even when I'm filming content. I just want to do everything with more intention. Quality over quantity comes to mind when I think of this personal goal.
Get an allotment with my best friend
This is something my friend actually suggested and I can't stop thinking about. It would be such a lovely goal to achieve as it would mean having a place to go and tend to with gardening, which I adore so much. I've not done too well with growing veg in my own garden due to the lack of space, so sharing a space with my best friend is a no brainer as she too wants to start growing her own produce and learn so much more about gardening. I'd love nothing more than to make this goal happen in 2026.
Celebrate the big & little wins every time
I'm terrible for achieving one thing and then not celebrating what I've achieved and moving straight onto the next thing. It may be because I'm extremely hard on myself & I'm constantly striving for more and more in my life. As I want big things for myself & I'm extremely independent when it comes to these things. But I am shocking for celebrating myself & my achievements, so 2026 I want to be celebrating my wins whether they're big or small & praise myself for all the hard work I do. Your sign to be proud of every little thing you do!
Eat better for my gut health
2025 I chose to slowly bring in an organic diet more into my life, which I did do rather well. But for 2026 I want to focus even more so on my gut health, as this is the answer to how I feel physically and mentally. I suffer with IBS, so if my gut is happy, so am I. I want to be focusing on more organic foods, and even less UPF food, as I've been slowly cutting out UPF from my diet more and more this past year, but I still haven't done enough of it - hey no ones perfect! Can't say I'd ever give up my favourite drink Vimto or Haribo sweets, but I can be better in different ways.
Travel Goals:
I always crave to travel & my list of places to travel each year are always endless, but I do have a few major ones on my list I'd like to tick off. Cairns & Brisbane in Australia would be beautiful to go & visit to see that part of the world. Visiting Adelaide & Sydney in 2025 was an absolute dream come true & I still cannot believe we travelled to the other side of the world - and want to go back and do it again! Australia truly was like another home from home.
I'd love to visit more of Italy, including Milan & Venice. I've wanted to go there for so long as I love Italy - craving a trip back to Rome too as it was such a gorgeous city! Athens is another place I'd like to go for a few days as I've not been to many places but Zante in Greece, so that's a top one I'd love to go for a short break. Dubai is a huge one on my list I've always wanted to experience, at least once in my life just to go and see it & what it's all about. The architecture there looks next level. New York is also another major city I am dying to visit, especially to see all the hot spots where a lot of films were made & walk around the famous Central Park.
As for road trips, as if you follow along on my YouTube channel "Isobel Celine", you will know how much me & my Fiancé love a good road trip. Ireland & Scotland would be amazing to travel round in a campervan (another 2026 goal is to get one). Ireland I've wanted to visit for years to see the villages my family were from and just see the true beauty of Irelands countryside. Scotland I've been to twice and both times didn't have good experiences, but I don't want this to put me off travelling and fully exploring Scotland for the stunning views it has & the heritage it holds.
Wellness Goals:
Better my posture
This past year, or last few years, I've been terrible for sitting incorrectly but comfortable. Now what I mean by that is, I tend to sit on my foot or have one leg up to open up my hips (as they tend to ache). So I'm wanting to sit up straight & completely reverse the way I've been sitting. I'm doing this now as I don't want to affect my posture as I get older.
Start taking collagen
As I'm currently 28 writing this, I've heard so much about how collagen is so important to take as a supplement when getting older to support your hair, skin & nails health. I want to nourish my body & I think of my older self with this sort of goal, as I want to keep my body healthy for as long as possible to live a long and healthy life.
Look into supplements & speak to a nutritionist about them
I currently already take Daily Multi-Nutrient vitamins from Wild Nutrition which I've been taking for well over a year now to support my supplement intake & I'm having all the vitamins I need. But I want to know more about what I can be doing to support my body & keeping it healthy with any supplements or routines I can add to my daily routine but speaking to a nutritionist - as Wild Nutrition actually have people on hand to support with this, especially if you have a subscription.
Eat & do things that match my cycle
This is basically to work around my period & my monthly cycle. As I've been learning more and more about how I feel at different stages of my cycle, so I'd like to figure out what works for me when, & eat foods that support my certain stages of my cycle & base my excising habits around it too.
Gain weight back I lost & get stronger
2025 I had a rather distressing thing happen to me & I lost a lot of weight, which made me so weak & unwell. Bearing in mind the years previously, it took me a few years to even gain weight (I have a high metabolism so I find it extremely hard to gain weight). Which is also why I've set so many health goals, to get my body back to a strong and healthy way it once was, but even better.
Big Purchases Goals:
Spend money more intentionally
I've noticed myself fall down a rabbit hole when it comes to shopping, especially when out and about. I'll make impulse purchases on things I don't need - more so when it comes to bargains. I do love a good bargain, but I want to get back to my state of mind where I don't spend money on things I really don't need and just use the things I already have before I purchase anything new.
Treat myself to a Demellier bag
Now this is definitely a luxury item when it comes to a big purchase. Okay it's no Chanel bag or Hérmes, but they don't really interest me personally - especially the risk that comes with even being out with a designer bag these days. I've added a Demellier bag to my vision board as I'd like to treat myself to a chocolate brown one by the end of 2026. I know that I'd get my cost per wear out of it, as a lot of my wardrobe is chocolate brown, it would be the perfect addition to my capsule wardrobe too. I also like to keep these sorts of purchases as like a reward, rather than randomly buying one, as it also makes it more of a special purchase and a major treat.
Get a new phone
I've had the same iPhone 12 Pro for years now and it's done me so well over time, but it's really showing it's age with the camera quality & it not being able to keep up with the amount of editing and work I get done on it. So I want to invest in a new phone to support me in growing the quality of my content and my business.
Get a campervan
Now I don't mean directly buy a campervan, as me & my Fiancé want to buy a van and renovate said van into a campervan with our own spin on it. We've wanted one for years, but haven't prioritised getting one as of all the other things we've wanted to do first. I just know when we get one, we will absolutely adore it, seeing as we love being on the road so much. I've become so much better at not being so anxious & more spontaneous from us being on the road so much & we've been privileged enough to have travelled so much around the UK which I'm so grateful for.
Business Goals:
Work on my UGC business & gain more new clients
2025 saw the start of my UGC business & I've created content for some truly wonderful clients. 2026 I want to grow my business further & see where it takes me.
Achieve 50K Subscribers
My Youtube growth has always been steady, but we are creating such a wonderful community over there, I hope we can grow it to 10x what it currently is. YouTube has to be my favourite platform for content, as it's so much more personal, you can connect with people more & create such wholesome memories. If you'd like to support me in this goal, please do subscribe to my channel here.
Achieve 20K Followers on Instagram
2025 saw me finally hit the goal I've always wanted to reach of 10K followers - every OG bloggers dream back in the day. Which I'm so grateful for! 2026 I'd love to double that goal on Instagram to grow the community there for those who love chic, elegant and countryside style. Follow me on Instagram here.
Achieve 10K Followers on TikTok
A platform I tend to stay off of, as I get sucked into such a wormhole of what I think will be a 5 mins scroll & turns out to be an hour or two later. I love posting on TikTok as it's such a relaxed platform and it's more relatable than the rather polished Instagram. I'm currently on 3.7K on TikTok, so hitting 10K doesn't seem too far away! Follow me on TikTok here.
Quite a lot of goals, but this is basically a full breakdown of my vision board for 2026 & what I want to do throughout the year. I hope this time next year in 2026 I will have achieved at least 75% of what I set out to do, but we shall see. Manifest hard enough, put in the hard work & you will make it happen!
What are your goals for 2026?
