I’ve had a slower start to 2026.

Not because I’m stuck.

Not because I’m avoiding things.

And not because something’s gone wrong.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on what happens when you stop forcing momentum in January and allow things to breathe — and why I’ve found the Lunar New Year a much more spacious way to begin.

I talk about the pressure to “hit the ground running,” and how quickly that sprint mentality turns into self-judgement and the feeling that you’re already behind.

We explore:

1. Why a slow start isn’t failure
2. The difference between what you’re doing and who you’re being
3. What 2025 really taught me about letting go
4. Why consistency beats intensity (and extremes) every time
5. Why comfort creates stagnation

This isn’t a planning episode in the traditional sense.

It’s about noticing your own rhythm.

Letting go of comparison.

And choosing a way of living that actually supports you.
