If the idea of setting big goals this year feels overwhelming, exhausting, or completely out of reach, this episode is for you.
For some people, January brings motivation and momentum.
For others, it brings heaviness, survival mode, or a quiet realization that they’ve been running on empty for a long time.
In this episode, we’re talking about why big goals can feel overwhelming — and what to do instead.
Not because you’re lazy.
Not because you lack discipline.
But because your nervous system may be asking for safety before growth.
We’ll explore why depression and survival mode aren’t signs that something is wrong with you, but rather signals — like a check engine light — letting you know that something deeper needs care and attention.
I’ll walk you through a gentler, trauma-informed process for beginning the year when motivation is low, including:
This is a guided experience for people who are tender and need space.
It’s a longer, workshop-style episode designed to be listened to slowly, in one sitting or in parts.
And it’s a conversation about permission.
Permission to pause.
Permission to feel.
Permission to meet yourself where you actually are.
No hustle, no bypassing, no pressure to be “better.”
Just an honest, compassionate way forward — especially if this season feels heavier than you expected.
