In this episode of Kind of Blunt, I talk about January at the gym and the familiar idea of “new year, new me”.

What starts as an observation about busy gyms and new faces quickly turns into something else. Judgement, belonging, insecurity, and the quiet unkindness that can show up in shared spaces.

This episode is not really about fitness. It is about trying, being seen while you try, and how easily we forget that everyone starts somewhere.

A reflection on shared space, softening our reactions, and choosing kindness when it would be easier to feel superior.

No experts. Just honest thoughts, spoken out loud.
