S3: E114- When the New Year Isn’t New: January 1st, Cycles & Choosing a Word of the Year

January 1st is often framed as a fresh start—but energetically, it rarely feels that way.In this reflective throwback episode of the Woo Curious Podcast, Eileen March and former co-host Ellie McMillan explore why the Gregorian New Year can feel rushed, anxious, and misaligned—and what happens when we reconnect with cyclical, seasonal wisdom instead.This conversation weaves together:• The Wheel of the Year• Intentions vs. resolutions• Word of the Year practices• Nervous system–aware goal setting• Ritual as support, not pressureThis episode is an invitation to slow down, honour where you actually are, and begin again in a way that feels true.Sign up for the Sacred Start WorkshopTake the Which Witch Are You QuizOrder Awaken to the Magic Within Connect with Eileen on Instagram Follow Eileen on Insight Timer  for her Wheel of the Year VisualizationSend Eileen an email
