On this New Year’s Eve Dear DST, Aleen and Sami start things off with a listener NSW and some wins of their own about food neutrality (sometimes your body just tells you to eat the pizza for breakfast, nbd). Then a listener writes in to ask how to be more gentle with herself when setting resolutions for the new year. Is it possible to find a middle ground with resolutions, or is this a recipe for failure? Plus, they talk about the challenge to be a less-perfect perfectionist and the perils of habit tracking.
