What if one single word could help you reflect on the past year — and gently guide the next one?

In this short, final episode of the year, I introduce the Word of the Year practice: a simple yet powerful way to look back, gain clarity, and set an intention for what’s ahead — without pressure, resolutions, or rigid goals.

This method is especially helpful if you:

• feel tired of goal-setting

• want a softer, more intuitive way to reflect

• crave clarity without overthinking

• want direction that feels aligned, not forced

Your word becomes a quiet anchor — something you return to throughout the year when decisions feel unclear.

🎧 A short, grounded episode to close the year with intention and open the next with clarity.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why self‑trust feels so difficult for high‑achieving women

• How external validation and inner criticism block our inner wisdom

You’ll learn why rational mindset work isn’t enough, how these patterns live in the body, and why subconscious healing and trauma-informed tools are key to reclaiming your true self.
