If you're sitting there telling yourself, "I'll just wait until January 1st," stop right now. December isn't a four-week hall pass; it's a momentum game.

On this episode of the Fit Parent podcast, Amy and I are cutting through the absolute nonsense of why waiting until the New Year is the biggest, most destructive lie that keeps you running in the same cycle year after year.

We break down the simple truth: how you finish determines how you start. It’s not about perfection; it’s about not wasting an entire month because of a few meals.

So, we share the tactical mindset that lets you treat December like the 'Friday afternoon' of the calendar year so you can start January, your 'Monday morning,' already ahead of the game. This episode is for action takers.

These are the most important takeaways from this episode:

• Why you can’t afford to wait is because how you finish determines how you start, and momentum is everything in hitting your goals.

• How the math proves you don't need to waste a whole month over a few meals.

• How to guarantee a strong start by setting yourself up for success.

• The importance of taking any action now to avoid making things exponentially harder in January.

• Why the belief that a massive January overhaul can replace simple, consistent action right now is holding you back.

If you’re ready to be an action taker who stops the shame cycle and starts January already winning, then this is the episode that will change how you approach the holidays forever. Hit play and let's get after it.
