2025 didn’t break you — it refined you. And 2026 isn’t asking you to become someone new. It’s asking you to come home. In this episode, we explore why the “new year, new you” mindset often leads to burnout and self-sabotage — and why real change doesn’t come from urgency, hustle, or fixing yourself.

We talk about:

• Why your body and nervous system respond to safety, not pressure
• How integration matters more than intensity right now
• Why so many New Year goals fail — and what actually supports lasting change
• The difference between reinventing yourself and returning to who you’ve always been

This is the heart behind The Nourished Woman Within — a space where nutrition, movement, energy, faith, and inner child healing come together instead of competing.

If you’re in the in-between…no longer who you were, not quite who you’re becoming…this episode is for you.

You don’t need a rebrand. You need a return.
