New Year’s pressure doesn’t have to run the show. We’re flipping the script with a refreshing, research-backed approach to change that starts now—not on January 1—and centers on identity, clarity, and gentle momentum. Instead of chasing rigid resolutions, we map the person we want to become by December 31 and build small, supportive systems that make that identity feel natural and doable.
I share the vision behind my Midlife Manifesto and kick off an eight-part mini-series designed to help you craft your own. We explore why most resolutions fail—willpower fatigue, the brain’s resistance to sudden change, shame-driven goals, and cultural timing—and what to do instead: identity-based statements, self-compassion, and tiny daily actions that compound. You’ll get powerful reflection prompts to take stock of the year, examples of identity statements that stick, and a sample manifesto you can borrow while you write your own.
This conversation is for anyone navigating midlife transitions—divorce, empty nest, health shifts, or a quiet restlessness that says it’s time to grow. You’ll learn how to align choices with values, protect your energy with better boundaries, and choose presence over perfection. By the time the ball drops, you’ll already be living as the person you pictured, with a clear compass and meaningful habits that last.
