When life feels complex, forcing change often backfires.
The start of the year often feels layered—a mix of momentum, fatigue, and optimism—and it’s not something we necessarily need to fix .
What I’m seeing right now in people carrying more responsibility is a desire to change how they focus, and what they focus on, as they move toward self-improvement and change this new year.
What can be forgotten is that meaningful change takes time. Rushing can undermine quality and integrity.
Working with your natural rhythm—rather than forcing progress—leads to more sustainable energy, clearer thinking, and better outcomes.
This episode is an invitation to stay grounded as you make changes around work, health, or how you structure your days.
You don’t need a complete overhaul. You already know where you want to go and likely have been working on it.
What matters now is choosing the next step—and finding a rhythm for it that suits your life.
I'll share a few examples of how that works in practice.
I also share a personal story about struggling with sleep, learning about biological rhythms, and what changed when I stopped working against my body's natural rhythm.
This episode marks the beginning of a new season of the podcast—same work, with more clarity, focus, and intention. Here we are on Season 2!
