Listen Later

Is winter really the best time to start working toward your goals, or should you wait for spring? In this thought-provoking episode, we challenge the conventional wisdom around New Year's resolutions and explore why your perfect starting point might be completely different from everyone else's and why that's exactly how it should be.

Drawing on calendar history, personal astrology, and real-world experience, this episode dives into the advantages of winter goal-setting while acknowledging it's not for everyone. Discover why the "right" time to start is whenever it aligns with your energy, schedule, and personal rhythms, not what society tells you.

💫 Key Topics:

  • The surprising history of our calendar and why January 1st is arbitrary
  • Why winter can be an ideal time for certain goals
  • How astrology and personal patterns can inform your goal-setting timeline
  • The importance of having a system that works for YOU
  • Why introverts and homebodies might thrive with winter starts
  • Permission to start on your own schedule, not society's
  • 🎯 Perfect for anyone who feels pressure around New Year's resolutions, struggles with conventional goal-setting advice, or wants to design a personal success system that honors their unique energy and lifestyle. Whether you're a winter starter, a spring beginner, or a "whenever feels right" person, this episode validates your timing.
