The time of year is here, our yearly Women’s 2022 Predictions!

This year we received 1,266 responses from the SheSpeaks community. We asked women about all kinds of topics, from their social media usage, 2022 goals, and economic outlook to current emotions.

Here are three key insights from the results, check out the deck below for more!
 

  1. The Pandemic Has Caused Trauma and Ongoing Anxiety. In 2019, 60% of the SheSpeaks Predictions survey respondents felt excited and optimistic about entering 2020. After a year plus of economic hardship, job loss, and pandemic trauma, the optimism seems to have faded with a consecutive 27% drop in anticipation for the new year.
     
  2. Self Care and Self Progress will be the Theme of 2022. Along with improving fitness, optimizing organization, and doing more for well-being, self-care will remain a common goal amongst women. In 2022, 61% of women will be placing their energy into building strength and improving fitness. Organization of the home and increasing travel have the most significant year-over-year difference in this category. Many women (51%) have also reported the desire to learn a new skill either through reading, listening to podcasts, or joining a class.
  1. The Growing Desire for Connection Strengthening relationships with family and friends seems to be the most sought-after accomplishment for women in the upcoming year. Up 15% from last year, 61% of women hope to spend more time with family & friends. For singles, the desire for connection in the form of a new love interest has also increased by 75% from 2020!

These make total sense. There has definitely been lots of anxiety & we need more self-care and relationships!

If only the pandemic would end and we could focus on helping each other

I love that term "self progress" we are all in a state of improving.

I love that these predictions are looking on the bright side! Even if the pandemic sticks around and has taken a huge toll on our mental health, there's a bright side. More people than ever are learning to slow down, take care of themselves, and get support if they need it.

I like the self care and self progress prediction. Also connecting is important to me.

I don't believe the world will ever be rid of Covid as it is now. Just like the flu is here year after year. The time to draw close to our family and close friends.

I think making connections will be a theme, rather than a fucus on self.

There seems to be a theme throughout, one of anxiety, self-care, and connection. It seems we are all connected.

I agree with these 2022 predictions. But am hoping for a much better year in 2022!

I agree. I feel more people have a less positive outlook for the upcoming year because it doesn't feel like the pandemic is going anywhere.
