Resolutions vs. Commitment: Why Most Goals Fail by Week Three | Midweek Momentum

By the third week of January, something predictable happens when it comes to New Year's resolutions: either the wheels come off or the credit card comes out! In this Midweek Momentum, Angie Callen breaks down why most resolutions fail (often by January 9), why rigid, borrowed goals set us up for frustration, and what actually creates sustainable commitment instead. Using real-life examples — from the infamous "75 Hard" challenge to fitness, work, and life design — Angie reframes failure as feedback and invites you to rethink goals through the lens of values, purpose, and flexibility. If you're questioning a resolution, feeling behind, or wondering whether your goals actually fit you, this episode is your permission slip to pause, recalibrate, and move forward with intention. Midweek Momentum is your short, human-first reset — designed to help you build a career and life by design, not default, in the future of work.
