In our first episode of 2026, we’re slowing way down to talk about why New Year’s resolutions so often fail — and what to do instead.
We explore the pressure to “hit the ground running” in January, why this mindset goes against our natural rhythms, and how social media, hustle culture, and diet culture keep us disconnected from ourselves. This conversation invites a more sustainable, seasonal, and gentle approach to the new year — one rooted in intention, reflection, and nervous system care.
We also dive into:
Taking a social media cleanse and redefining your relationship with your phone
Why scrolling can feel easier than taking action — and how to interrupt that cycle
Protecting what’s sacred instead of turning every moment into content
Setting intentions instead of resolutions
Working with winter energy instead of fighting it
Releasing shame-based goal setting and inviting curiosity, play, and exploration
Why it’s okay if your “new year reset” doesn’t happen in January
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, or resistant to the “new year, new me” narrative — this episode is your permission slip to do things differently.
✨ Slow down. Get intentional. Start where you are.
