Welcome back to Well Being, caught right in that strange liminal space between Christmas and New Year’s — aka Twixmas. The days feel blurry, productivity is optional, and next year’s problems can absolutely wait.

We kick things off with our Sparks of Inspiration, swapping holiday highlights, comfort media, and creative joys — from Disneyland dreams and Stranger Things discourse to Hades II, Star Wars games, Doc Martens conversions, and the quiet magic of returning to things you love.

From there, we ease into the mental health portion, unpacking what resolutions actually mean in a world that feels heavy, loud, and demanding. Instead of rigid goals and toxic self-optimization, we explore resolutions as guiding lights — promises rooted in compassion, creativity, movement, and sustainability. We talk fitness without shame, creativity without burnout, work-life balance, planting seeds for future growth, and learning to love making art both alone and together.

Then we drop fully into Goblin Mode 🧌

We shed shame, confess our goblin behaviors, laugh through messiness, doomscrolling, food choices, jacket piles, and creative chaos — all while questioning perfectionism and the unrealistic standards we’ve been taught to uphold.

This episode is cozy, honest, funny, and reflective — a permission slip to enter the new year without pressure, without punishment, and without pretending you’ve got it all figured out.

As always:

Be well. Don’t let them tell you to change — just because you feel a little strange.
