As we move into 2026, this short and sweet episode is a reminder to slow down, zoom out, and approach the new year with intention instead of pressure.

Rather than setting arbitrary goals just because the calendar flipped, we’re talking about four grounding things to keep in mind as you think about what you want next — goals that actually mean something, align with your values, and support the life you’re building.

We also unpack why so many people give up by February or March — and how the answer isn’t quitting, but pivoting, adjusting, and giving yourself permission to evolve as you go.

This episode isn’t about doing more or being better. It’s about being more honest, more aligned, and more compassionate with yourself as you move forward.

💬 In this episode:

• Why arbitrary goals don’t stick
• How values-based goals create sustainable change
• The importance of meaning over motivation
• Why pivoting is a skill — not a failure
• A healthier way to approach the new year

✨ You’ll walk away with:

• A calmer, more intentional mindset going into 2026
• Permission to set goals that actually fit your life
• A reframe of “failure” as feedback
• Encouragement to grow without all-or-nothing pressure
