This episode is about building a year you actually want to live through, not just a list you’re supposed to tick off.

If you’ve ever crawled to the end of the year whispering “january me will fix this,” this one’s for you.

In this episode:

• Why traditional goal-setting leaves you exhausted and actually very unchanged

• december deadline energy vs my new obsession: december desire dabbling

• The maths behind your annual motivation fade

• How to start 2026 with butterflies instead of dread

• The 2–3 desires I’m prioritising this December (and how you can choose yours)

I’m hosting a very low-key, very non-intense december desire dabble inside my IG close friends.
We’re each choosing 2 or 3 supportive desires (not goals, not resolutions) to help us feel more human and less husk going into 2026.
