In this episode, we explore:

• Why reflection matters before goal-setting
• How slowing down creates clarity and alignment
• The difference between pressure-driven change and intentional growth

The three anchors for a gentle reset:

• Pause — Reflect honestly on what the past year held, what worked, and what drained you
• Praise — Name and honor your wins, including growth that didn’t feel obvious at the time
• Prune — Release habits, patterns, and expectations that no longer serve where you’re headed

Key reminders:

• Alignment is built one small choice at a time
• Wins don’t have to be loud to be meaningful
• Letting go is often preparation, not loss

Included in this episode:

• A spoken affirmation for the new year
• A short closing prayer

• Boundary Scripts for Every Situation - Get exact phrases for time boundaries, topic boundaries, criticism, emotional labor demands, and guilt trips. Practice them until they feel natural.
• Your 5-Step Peace Plan - Know your non-negotiables, prep your scripts, identify your exit strategy, build your support system, and plan your reset tools before every event.
• Exit Strategies That Work - Create soft exits, firm exits, and partner code words so you can leave when you need to without drama.
• Guilt is Normal - If you've been managing everyone's emotions for years, boundaries will feel selfish at first. That doesn't mean you're doing it wrong—it means you're doing something different.
• Anchored in God's Peace - Jesus offers peace that doesn't depend on circumstances. Before events, surrender outcomes to God. During events, breathe and pray "Jesus, Your peace." After events, release it and don't replay endlessly.

• The Perfect Storm - Three forces create holiday pressure: high expectations, old family patterns, and relationship pressure. When you see the storm, you can prepare for it.
• Know Your Triggers - Criticism, comparison, control, and emotional labor demands are the most common holiday triggers. Your body tells you before your brain catches up.
• The 3-Breath Reset - Between trigger and reaction, there's a space. Pause, breathe three times, and choose to respond instead of react.
• The One Shift - You are NOT responsible for managing everyone else's emotions. You're only responsible for your own peace.
• Peace That Transcends - Real peace doesn't depend on perfect circumstances or everyone behaving well. It's anchored in something deeper.

Part 2 goes deeper with practical boundary scripts, your personal peace plan, and how to anchor yourself in God's peace when pressure hits.

We discuss:

• The hidden grief that can surface when God calls us into new levels of purpose
• The tension in the becoming — navigating the space between who we were and who God is shaping us to be
• How “measuring backward” from The Gap and the Gain can stabilize us when obedience feels heavy
• The difference between grieving (internal pain) and mourning (spiritual release)
• Why moving from grief to mourning is essential for healing and surrender
• Practical steps to invite God into the weight of obedience and experience His comfort

This episode will guide you through the emotional, spiritual, and identity-level layers of obedience — helping you hold your “yes” with honesty, courage, and faith.
