It’s mid-year — how are those New Year’s resolutions really going? In this episode of Navigating Your 20s, I’m pressing pause for an honest check-in. If you’re a girl in your 20s who started the year full of big intentions but now feels off-track, stuck in old habits, or frustrated that you’re not where you thought you’d be… this one’s for you.

This isn’t about shame — it’s a reset, not a restart. I’m breaking down why falling off track is more common than you think and why it has nothing to do with laziness. Life got busy. Your goals faded into the background. But that doesn’t mean they’re over — and it definitely doesn’t mean you’ve failed. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your goals in a way that actually lasts, how to get out of the all-or-nothing cycle that keeps you stuck, and why your future self is still waiting for you to show up.

I’m also diving into the truth about perfectionism, pressure, and why we tend to overcommit in January but burn out by April. I’ll walk you through what it looks like to shift from surface-level motivation to true identity change — and how to start embodying the version of you that you set out to become this year. If you’ve been feeling behind, overwhelmed, or just out of sync with the version of you you want to become, this episode will help you realign and take that first step forward again.

Because here’s the truth: the girl you wanted to become in January is still within reach. You don’t need a whole new plan — you just need to start choosing her again. Your December self is waiting — what will you do today to become her?
