Why We Keep Failing New Year's Resolutions (And What They Were Never Meant to Be)

Every January, millions of people set New Year's resolutions- only to abandon them within weeks. In this episode, we explore why traditional New Year's resolutions fail and how they may be out of alignment with out natural rhythms, nervous systems and deeper needs. 

Rather than pushing hustle-based goals, strict diets, or sudden self-reinvention, this conversation invites you to shift from resolutions to intentions- a more sustainable, compassionate and soul-aligned approach to growth. We look at the ancient origins of New Year's traditions, the psychology behind failed resolutions, and how modern culture pressures us to "start over" at a time when the body is still craving rest and reflection. 

This episode offers a gentler framework for personal growth- one that honors winter, cycles, self-trust, and long term transformation instead of quick fixes. whether you're feeling discouraged by past resolutions or simply craving a more meaningful way to enter the new year, this episode will help you reframe January as a season of alignment, not force.

Perfect for listeners interested in:

-Personal growth without burnout

-Intentional living

-Seasonal and cyclical wellness

-Mindset shifts for the New Year

-Slowing down and listening inward
