• Resolutions & New Growth: Planning Goals Without the Pressure
    Jan 6 2026

    Hey friend — we just wrapped up our first year of the podcast and dove into everything from holiday therapy needs to why New Years resolutions usually fail. We chat realistic goal-setting, the cycle of change, meaningful words-of-the-year, and why planning for setbacks is actually smart (not pessimistic).

    If you're tired of vague resolutions and want doable ways to build habits, this episode is for you. We talk support systems, motivation, affirmations that actually work, and how to break big goals into bite-sized wins — plus a few personal updates and profession stuff that makes this all feel human.
