The speaker traces her changing relationship with New Year's resolutions—from skepticism to seeing them as moments of mindful reflection. She shares successes like reducing social media dependency, improving spending habits, and maintaining a consistent walking routine that boosted well-being. Yet, not all goals were met: attempts to watch more movies or learn new skills faltered due to poor planning or burnout from overcommitting. A deeper transformation emerged in detaching self-worth from appearance and embracing authenticity online. Hobbies are now pursued through intuition, not obligation. Looking ahead, she emphasizes realistic goal-setting and prioritizing passion projects. This mindset shift culminates in reducing her podcast frequency to one episode weekly starting in 2026, making space for broader creative exploration while expressing gratitude for continued listener support.
