New Year, New You? No thanks.
We’re diving into the glittery, guilt-ridden world of New Year’s resolutions.
Whether you’re a die-hard goal-setter or someone who rolls your eyes at the whole “New Year, New Me” vibe, chances are resolutions have crossed your mind at some point.
In this episode, we dive headfirst into the wonderfully chaotic world of New Year’s resolutions—because who doesn’t love a fresh start that lasts, oh, about two weeks? We tackle why most resolutions fail (spoiler: it’s not you, it’s the system), the magic of manifesting intentions, and why focusing on the journey—not just the destination—is where it’s at.
But that’s not all! We’re talking health, wellness, and why napping should absolutely count as self-care. We dish on creative ways to finally use those gift cards, share hilarious personal stories about failed resolutions, and sprinkle in a little Marie Kondo energy with tips on waste management and staying organized. Oh, and if you’ve been dreaming about travel or need a solid book or podcast rec, we’ve got you covered there too.
This convo is smart, sassy, and packed with laughs, leaving you inspired to tackle life with a little more grace and a lot more grit.
