Happy January! Episode 230 is here to help you tackle goal resistance and resolution trauma. Why do so many of us feel hesitant or even traumatized by the idea of setting goals and resolutions? Let’s try a compassionate alternative framework: "more or less." By focusing on what we want more or less of in our lives, we can create manageable, meaningful change without the pressure of perfectionism. Whether you're vegan, curious about plant-based living, or just looking to live more intentionally, this episode has valuable insights for everyone.
