🎙️ New Year, Slow Start: Why January Is Meant for Rest

🎧 About the Episode: 

January asks so much of us. New goals, new routines, a new version of ourselves.. the list goes on.  But what if this season of winter was never meant for rushing forward?

In this episode, I’m reframing January as a time for rest, hibernation, and restoration. A reminder that winter is meant for slowing down, nourishing your nervous system, and reconnecting with yourself before any kind of reinvention takes place. We explore how the modern “new year, new me” mentality contradicts both nature and our own biology, and why it’s okay to opt out of the pressure to immediately "do more" or "be more".

This conversation is an invitation to begin the year gently. To honor rest as productive, stillness as purposeful, and trust that clarity and momentum will come in their own time. If you’re craving a slower, more grounded start to the year, this episode is for you.
