The Power of Reflection: Simple Steps to Unlock Growth

In this episode of Energy Expansion, Dani explores why reflecting on your experiences—both big and small—is one of the most effective ways to learn, grow, and move forward. She shares her own personal journey with reflection (and occasional resistance to it!) and explains how simple reflection prompts can illuminate hidden lessons. Dani also walks you through a straightforward reflection process you can use monthly, quarterly or anytime you need a clarity boost.

Dani’s Reflection Prompts

Below are the questions and prompts Dani recommends for a monthly, quarterly, or even weekly self-check:

Three Words – What three words describe this past period?
Rate Your Life – Rate (1–10) your Happiness, Calmness, Fulfillment, Energy, Health, Relationships, Fun & Leisure, Self-Care, and Productivity/Time Management.
I Wish I Had Done More… – Fill in the blank with actions, habits, or experiences you want to expand.
I Wish I Had Done Less… – Fill in the blank with behaviors or patterns you’re ready to let go of.
I Started… – Identify new ventures, habits, or internal shifts you initiated.
I Finished… – Celebrate the projects, commitments, or chapters you’ve successfully completed.
