Über diesen Titel

 Welcome, welcome!

We’re closing out the year with a slightly controversial topic… 👀

It’s almost December 31st.
Which means January 1st is coming.
And that means… New Year’s Resolutions. 🎇

As someone who has spent many years in gyms and wellness — including working as a fitness director — I’ve seen what January looks like firsthand. Gyms are PACKED from the New Year through mid-February. And then? The slow fade. The “die-off.” The resolutions that don’t survive. Not just in fitness, but in every area of life.

And that is why…I am officially a No Resolutions promoter, believer, and teacher. Wait, what?! 😱
Bah humbug? Anti-goals? Rebel against society?
Not quite. Let me explain…


💬 What We Talk About in This Episode

✦ The pressure + perfectionism behind resolutions
✦ Why the diet industry thrives on our “failure”
✦ How resolutions often disconnect us from our real needs
✦ A more compassionate approach to change
✦ Why incomplete goals are still valuable data
✦ How acceptance may be the healthiest “New Year tradition” of all


🧠 A Personal Story

New Year’s used to send my anxiety through the roof — expectations, perfectionism, doing things to please others. I dreaded this holiday.

Later, through fitness and mental-health work, I realized: • The world profits when we believe we’re broken

• People often set goals that deny who they truly are
• We can feel like failures over things outside our control
• Our bodies are not wrong — societal expectations are

If you want the full story, I’ve written a newsletter on it. Just reach out — I’d love to share it with you. 💌


✨ “New Year’s Acceptance

” What if this year, instead of forcing change… we nurture acceptance? • Speak to yourself with love

• Choose goals when you want them
• Let your growth follow a natural path
• Release the pressure to perform for others

Goals aren’t the enemy! But:

🛑 Goals set because we’re supposed to
🛑 Goals that ignore our body’s truth
🛑 Goals that crush our self-worth

…those deserve to be questioned.

📌 Reframing Goals
✔ Set them any time of year
✔ Flex and adjust as you go
✔ Use outcomes as information — not judgment Even when we don’t “complete” a goal, we’ve learned something:
Maybe skateboarding isn’t our thing.
Maybe knitting hats for cats is… less delightful than imagined.
That’s success — because we gained clarity.
