Destination Roadmapping
Clear the Clutter with a Clean Slate
A new year or a new season doesn’t magically reset anything.
Most communities walk straight into January carrying the same meetings, the same tired events, and the same frustrations they were juggling the month before. And adding more goals on top of that rarely fixes the real problem.
In this episode of Destination Roadmapping, we’re talking about what it actually means to create a clean slate, not by starting over, but by clearing what’s quietly getting in the way.
You’ll learn:
- Why a clean slate is not the same as a blank slate
- How overbuilt calendars, zombie traditions, and messy messaging drain momentum
- Why “busy” often hides avoidance
- The three questions that help you reset with clarity instead of chaos
This episode is for small towns, Main Streets, and tourism teams ready to stop carrying what no longer serves them—and start building forward with intention.
Clear the slate first.
Then build what actually works.
