This year, we're done

<p><strong>Everyone’s talking about New Year’s resolutions.</strong><br /><strong>In this new season of the </strong><em><strong>She Gets It From Me </strong></em><strong>podcast, we’re talking about what we’re </strong><em><strong>done </strong></em><strong>tolerating.</strong></p><p>This episode is about the quiet shifts that happen when you stop explaining yourself, stop carrying other people’s nonsense, and stop pretending you’re fine.<br />No reset. No reinvention. Just where we’re actually at.</p><p>If January makes you feel pressured instead of hopeful, you’re not alone. This one’s for you. And sorry, we do have a little catch-up first regarding the chaos and illness <em>joys </em>of Christmas, but we are sure you will relate!</p><p>Key takeaways in this episode:</p><ul><li><p>Christmas can be lovely and still absolutely knackering. Both things can be true.</p></li><li><p>Being ill has a way of ruining plans and reminding you how little control you actually have.</p></li><li><p>New Year’s resolutions often feel less like choice and more like pressure.</p></li><li><p>Everyone suddenly decides they need to “sort themselves out” in January, whether it makes sense or not.</p></li><li><p>We’re encouraged to want everything now, which makes it harder to sit with real life as it is.</p></li><li><p>Being present isn’t about mindfulness buzzwords; it’s about not mentally living six weeks ahead.</p></li><li><p>Routine keeps things ticking over, but dreaming is what stops life feeling flat.</p></li><li><p>New Year’s resolutions aren’t new or modern;in the future we’ve been doing this to ourselves for centuries.</p></li><li><p>Life feels better when you stop obsessing over outcomes and actually notice what’s happening along the way.</p></li><li><p>Sometimes making better choices isn’t about discipline, it’s about slowing down and not running yourself into the ground.</p></li></ul><p>Chapters</p><p>00:00Navigating the Holiday Chaos</p><p>03:12Health Challenges and Resilience</p><p>06:16New Year, New Resolutions</p><p>09:17Beauty Experiments and Self-Care</p><p>12:09Hydration and Health Goals</p><p>17:27Reflections on Alcohol Consumption</p><p>19:50Reducing Screen Time and Embracing Presence</p><p>22:00Creativity and the Importance of Imagination</p><p>26:55Changing the Narrative: New Year, New Perspectives</p><p>35:12The Origins and Evolution of New Year's Resolutions</p><p>38:06The Pressure of New Beginnings</p><p>39:44The Role of Marketing in Resolutions</p><p>41:28Dreams vs. Reality: The Work-Life Balance</p><p>43:32Instant Gratification and Its Impact</p><p>45:52The Pursuit of Happiness and Materialism</p><p>48:30Enjoying the Journey: The Process of Change</p><p>50:26Regulating Our Nervous System</p><p>52:27Shifting Narratives: From Resolutions to Real Change</p><p>54:10Accountability and Future Goals#WomensPodcast #UKPodcast #RealTalk #HonestConversations #NewYearReflections #NotNewYearNewMe<br />#JanuaryFeelings #LifeReset</p><p></p><p></p>
