Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail and What Actually Works Instead

Every January I see the same thing: motivation is high, the gym is packed, and people go all-in… only to burn out a few weeks later. In this episode, I talk about why New Year’s resolutions so often fail, not because of laziness or lack of willpower, but because we try to change everything at once. I break down how habits are actually formed, why your brain resists change, and how starting small (like gradually increasing daily movement) creates lasting results. If you’re already feeling overwhelmed or like you’re losing steam this month, this episode is your permission to slow down, focus on one habit, and build momentum that actually sticks.
