The final episode of 2025 takes a different approach to year-end reflection. Let's ditch the performance review mentality and the "good year vs. bad year" binary that erases our actual growth. I share the phone photo method for reflection that puts you back in real moments instead of forcing manufactured lists, explain how reflection builds nervous system regulation (not just feelings), and break down why most people sabotage their own goals before they start.
Learn how to set specific, behavioral intentions tied to your values, why starting smaller than you think creates sustainable success, and how to use the Fresh Start Effect strategically without burning out. Includes real client case studies on practicing failure responses and knowing when adjusting isn't quitting.
If you're tired of the "new year, new me" cycle that dies by February, this episode offers a more compassionate and informed approach to entering 2026 equipped to actually create change.
