Exhausted by "New Year, New You" pressure? Here's the truth: you don't need to become someone different to have a better year.

This episode introduces identity-based habits - a research-backed approach where you align small actions with who God already says you are. Instead of outcome-focused goals that most people abandon, you'll discover how to build sustainable change from a foundation of truth: you are God's workmanship.

SCRIPTURE HIGHLIGHT:

"For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10

 "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:14

Only 9% of people complete their New Year's resolutions - but it's not because you're weak. It's because you're trying to change everything at once. If you woke up on January 2nd feeling disappointed that nothing magically transformed overnight, this episode is for you. 

Janet explains why resolutions fail, what research says about sustainable change, and why God invites us to grow in grace - not perform impossible transformations.

Real change happens through gradual growth - small steps wrapped in grace over time. You're not behind. God is inviting you to grow, not perform.

SCRIPTURE HIGHLIGHT:

 "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 3:18
