What We’re Leaving Behind - And Why It Matters
The new year is supposed to feel fresh and motivating… so why does January often feel so heavy?
In this episode of Patience & Progress, Mel, Shel, and Karissa sit down for an honest conversation about what real growth actually looks like as we step into 2026. We talk about what we’re leaving behind from last year, habits, mindsets, and survival patterns that once protected us but may now be holding us back.
From the pressure of New Year’s resolutions and the myth of instant transformation, to learning how to reflect on the past without drowning in regret, this episode is a reminder that progress doesn’t happen all at once. We explore why change feels uncomfortable, why small steps matter more than perfect plans, and how grace, especially toward ourselves, is often the missing piece.
If you’re feeling behind, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward without burning out, this conversation is for you. You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to reinvent yourself overnight. Sometimes progress looks like slowing down, letting go, and choosing just 1% better.
