Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:00:00]: Well, hello there. Welcome back to the Happy Healthy Hustle podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Christiane Schroeter, and today we're going to talk about one of my absolute favorite things, making lists. I'm going to share my 25 in 2025 list with you. Yes, I know I'm that type of person, but listen, lists help me stay focused, organized, and honestly, they make my life way more fun. Maybe it's the German in me. Efficiency, order, having a plan. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:00:30]: But also, I used to spend my spring breaks in Paris, and I learned there that life needs a little bit more joie de vivre. Right? So naturally, my lists are always a good mix of both. I have the structure, but I also have the spontaneity, the productivity, and the pleasure. Right? So let's come to my 25 in 2025 lists. One of my friends actually shared hers with me and I thought, why not? Not just because I love a good checklist. It's going to help me make it accountable. Yes. Let's be honest, right? I need that accountability. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:01:05]: So here it is, 25 things I'm going to do this year. Some of them are practical, some of them are just for fun, and some they're just kind of things that make life really, really good. So grab your coffee or your matcha or your tea or whatever you're drinking, your mocha, and more on that in a second. And let's dive in. Right? So I am going to get started with the fun and adventure category because life is more than work. First, in 2025, I'm going to try some kind of guided meditation, acupuncture, or a sound bath. I once did a sound bath and whoa, it was like my brain went on vacation. I'll be using noise canceling headphones to take it to the next level. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:01:49]: So I will link all my favorite products here in the show notes. Second on my list is I'm going to take a solo trip to Nashville. I did that last year. And oh my gosh, it was such an amazing thing for my career. I started working on my book. I published an amazing article. So adventure in terms of my work, but also checking out some cute cafes, some bookstores, and just having like my kind of trip over there. Third, I'm going to host some kind of salad, greens and garden party. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:02:26]: I'm like thinking it's going to be like smoothies, striped straws, maybe colorful fruit skewers and this kind of fun party. Maybe some fun party games. And I'm going to link to my one of my favorite party games here in the show notes which is called Taboo. Oh my gosh. If you have not played it, love that game. So my c'est la vie mode. Little things that spark joy. And this will be number four. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:02:51]: I'm going to finish my Invisalign treatment. If you have not noticed, I usually wear these Invisalign aligners and if you're thinking about getting one, talk to me. I have so many tips but I also have lots of different accessories that I bought and again I'm going to link them. There are these cute little travel size cases with like this little tool that lets you take the Invisalign thing out. Life saving. I'm going to publish my second book in 2025 and I now and talk about my books like my babies. Love them, love writing them, love publishing them. Number six, I'm going to find a new mocha coffee. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:03:29]: My favorite one get discontinued. I have no idea why. So I'm on the hunt right now. If you have a great mushroom based coffee, let me know. And I found one so it's my latest obsession. But if you have one, let me know. Number seven, I'm going to start a daily gratitude practice and I'm writing down in a journal every night that I bought. And honestly I like that. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:03:55]: It's kind of like a structure. It ends your day with gratitude. Three things that were your daily wins. Number eight, I'm going to apply for TEDx speaking engagements because I have a lot to say and the TEDx stage sounds like a perfect place to say it. Number nine, I'm going to continue writing down all my wins from 2024. I only did January so far, so that's my confession but I'm working on it. So let's get to the business and growth section because my big dreams have big dreams, right? Number 10, I'm going to create some kind of freebie that helps you discover your superpower because the world needs more quick wins that help people step into their strength. And it will also be part of my book that's coming up that's called discover your superpower. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:04:45]: Number 11 on my Instagram I'm going to show some kind of favorite tools reels so people always ask me all the time what is it that you use here and what is it that you use there. And then I can just direct people there and you can get access to everything. I also want to create an about me highlight on Instagram because you know it's fun to get a little bit of European flair But also the business smarts and maybe you even get some of my favorite teas or cosmetic products linked right there. Number 13, I'm going to find and apply for some kind of business award because why not, right? I take any application or recommendation that you have. I want to go for it. Number 14, I'm going to spend an hour in some kind of writing project that could be the book that I'm writing on right now and actually like to write sometimes by hand. So this planner that I got is actually a paper planner and it's really mind blowing how great it is to write things down by hand and then look at them. Let's get into the self care and just because category. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:05:51]: So we already 14 elements down right now. So come to number 15 and I'm really thrilled about that one. I'm going to find my signature scent, something chic, fresh and a little bit of mysterious, like, kind of like, oh, she's got her life together and she knows also the best hidden places in Paris, something like that. I'm going to look for it and I'm going to share with you my progress. Number 16, I'm going to use my body scrub and lip scrubs more consistently. I really like using hand scrubs, so I used one this morning and my hands feel so much better now. I use face scrubs a lot but I just need to get a little bit more consistency and of course my lip products. So I got a little attachment that I have at my keychain right now where my lip balm is in Lifesaver. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:06:43]: Number 17, I got a new air fryer. It has six different functions so I will learn some of those six and I should probably use more than two. Right? Let's get into the efficiency mode because German organization never leaves me. Right? Number 18, I'm going to create a really nice warm welcome sequence and that means that if you subscribe to my emails, I really want to put my best foot forward. Number 19, I'm going to update my tools and resources page. So I talked about this on the Instagram, but now this is also going to be a page because I always love helping you finding new must haves. Number 20, I'm really going to deep clean my tech accessories. I know I need to clean up my laptop. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:07:31]: It's going to be like, it's going to be so happy. It's lots of cords and everything. And I use travel organizers because I travel so that will be helpful too. Number 21, really refreshing my LinkedIn page. If you go there right now, It's a time capsule, so don't even look at this. Number 22. I'm going to give my business Facebook page a makeover as well. I know it's a total ghost town right now. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:07:56]: Number 23, decluttering 100 things. And my secret weapon is I have label makers and label makers keep your world organized. It's like satisfying when you put a label on something. Number 24 cleaning up my Canva account. That's also where I actually write my book. I have so many templates in there and I really need to organize things and put them in folders or just delete them. Number 25. That's the last one. Dr. Christiane Schroeter [00:08:24]: I'm going to move all my personal documents like passports, etc into a fireproof and waterproof safe because I live in California. Those were my 25 in 2025 items. Some of them are deficiency, some of them are about joy. And altogether they create a life that feels for me balanced, intentional and fun. Right? So now I want to hear from you.
