Jan 1 is a LIE!

Happy “New Year”… or whatever the hell this is supposed to be.

If you’re waking up on January 1 like, “New year, new me, time to slay goals,” but your body feels like a dead iPhone with 5% battery and 58 tabs open… this episode is for you.

Because here’s the truth: January 1 is a lie, hunty. It’s a made-up reset date shoved into the dead middle of winter, when nature is literally doing the opposite of hustle. Bears are hibernating. Trees are conserving. Everything is resting, regenerating, and waiting. Yet somehow we’re expected to come out of Q4 like an electrified squirrel at a rave and instantly become the Energizer Bunny.

No wonder it fails.

In this episode, I break down:
• why the “New Year, new you” trap is designed to keep you burnt out
• how the calendar shift pulled us out of rhythm with nature and into hustle culture
• why your nervous system hates sudden change (and why your resolutions don’t stick)
• what you should actually be doing in January (spoiler: slow down and reflect, not punish yourself)
• why resting is not laziness, it’s strategy

And if you’re ready to do this differently, I made something to walk you through it step-by-step.

Now go pour your tea, deepthroat those Oreos if you must, and let your nervous system unclench. January is not the time to force a new life. It’s the time to rest, reflect, and get ready to slay when nature actually says “go.”
