Let’s dig into why New Year's resolutions often crash and burn, shall we? Spoiler alert: it’s that toxic cocktail of all-or-nothing thinking and perfectionism that trips us up every time. In this episode, we’ll call out those self-sabotaging habits and serve up a fresh perspective: compassionate goal-setting. Because guess what? Beating yourself up won’t get you anywhere. Instead, we’ll focus on finding that deep, juicy, intrinsic motivation to create changes that actually stick.

What we explore:
• Understanding National Quitters Day and its implications for resolutions
• Exploring the "fresh start effect" and its motivational power
• The dangers of all-or-nothing thinking when setting goals
• Shifting from rigid goal-setting to practical, achievable steps
• Embracing failure as an opportunity for growth and learning
• Challenges of habit formation for neurodivergent individuals
• Finding motivation beyond novelty through intrinsic values
• Strategies for maintaining engagement and consistency over time
