There are tags, which I think will do what you want, and would also allow you to put each goal into multiple “folders” if you wished to.

Here’s a couple of forum posts that should tell you everything you need to know but of course say if you need more info or if this won’t work for you!

Beeta & Backburner goals

Hello! Beeta is now deployed. But fear not - there’s a way to backburner goals, though it’s slightly different.

• “wk” (work) - goals related to my paid job, currently only one for total time and one for a specific project
• “food” and “notfood” - every goal is in one of these, depending on whether it tracks food/water consumption or not
