Setting Intentions for the Year Ahead

In this episode of Untrained, we explore our approach to the hot topic of "New Year's Resolutions”. How can we side-step the goal-setting frenzy that surrounds us and create a more sustainable, aligned, and ultimately more successful path towards what we want for ourselves?
