In this reflective end-of-year podcast episode, Matt looks back on 2025 and encourages listeners to “leave it on the doorstep” as they move into the new year—letting go of guilt, unmet goals, and perceived failures while keeping the lessons learned. Using a mix of personal stories, mindset coaching, and health-focused motivation, the episode emphasizes that perfection isn’t required for progress. The host highlights how common negative self-talk (“I can’t,” “I won’t,” “I don’t,” “I didn’t”) keeps people stuck, and explains how reframing those thoughts into “what if,” “I will,” “I want,” and “I did” can unlock real change. Rather than rigid New Year’s resolutions, the focus is on optimism, belief, and small, intentional habits—especially around health, nutrition, and self-care. The episode closes with an invitation to start 2026 with possibility, presence, and a healthier mindset, reminding listeners that lasting change begins in the mind.
