Give us your goals - episode 5 with Michaela Strachan

We know goals are good. But what do they look like for everyone else? Best-selling author and TV presenter Kirsty Gallacher has joined forces with Bestinvest and former BBC Radio 5 Live producer Guy Kilty to produce the Give Us Your Goals podcast series. Kirsty talks to some of Britain’s biggest household names to understand what goals means to them. They tell us about the good, the bad and the ugly because let’s face it, we don’t always reach that end goal.

We’re inviting you to tell us about the journey you’ve been on to achieve a lifelong goal. What did you achieve and how did you do it? It’s OK if you didn’t succeed, what did you learn? Did you achieve what you set out to do or end up having to reset and move onto something else?
