Forget the pressure to reinvent your entire life this January. In this episode, we’re tossing out the all-or-nothing mindset and replacing it with gentle steps that actually bring peace and progress.
Here’s what we’ll cover:
Why typical resolutions just pile on stress (and how to break that cycle)
My three gentle steps to self-growth that actually feel doable
How to shift from rigid goals to celebrating small wins and moments of peace
Why self-compassion is key — you can’t hate yourself into change
I’ll also share some personal stories, including a few of my recent mistakes, and how learning to give myself grace changed everything.
Quick Win: Take one small step today — pray, journal, or simply pause and breathe. Invite God into it and see how He leads.
Final Thought: This year, let’s focus on kindness over perfection. Small victories, grace-filled living, and leaning on God’s love — that’s what truly matters. Let’s make 2025 our gentlest year yet!
