Episode notes

"Consistency, not intensity, is what transforms a life."

Every January, millions of people promise themselves that this will be the year everything changes.

They set goals. They make declarations. They swear this time will be different.

And yet by February, most resolutions are quietly abandoned, not because people are lazy, broken, or lacking discipline but because they've been taught the wrong model of change.

In this powerful episode of SoulTalk, I invite you to look deeper, beyond willpower, hype, and the "New Year, New You" myth and into the real mechanics of lasting transformation.

If you're tired of starting over… If you're done beating yourself up for "failing"… If you sense that something deeper is calling you forward…

This episode is a compassionate wake-up call and a grounded roadmap for real, embodied change.

We explore why behavior change alone never lasts, how identity shapes your results, why consistency always beats intensity, and how your environment may be quietly deciding your future.

This isn't about forcing yourself to become someone else. It's about remembering who you already are and living from that truth.
