Episode 13 -Rethinking New Year’s Resolutions: Why Affirmations Might Be Kinder

from Chiming In · host Elyse Tapper and David Cardon

New Year’s resolutions can feel motivating — or they can quietly suggest that something about us needs fixing.In this episode, we talk about the tension between growth and self-acceptance. David shares why traditional resolutions can feel like a necessary reset, while Elyse offers a different perspective — one rooted in positive affirmations and honoring who we already are.We explore how intentions, language, and mindset shape the way we move forward, and whether growth has to come from a place of dissatisfaction at all.This conversation is about choosing a way forward that feels supportive instead of critical — and finding progress without the pressure.If New Year’s resolutions have ever made you feel behind, off-track, or like you haven’t been doing enough, this episode offers a gentler alternative.Please follow, like, rate and share!
