224. Why Your Goals Aren’t Working + How to Build Real Self-Trust This Year

January 13
30 mins

Episode Description

New year, same cycle? You set the goals, feel fired up for a week or two, and then…you slowly fall off the wagon. Sound familiar??


If that resonates, you are NOT alone! This episode is your permission slip to stop chasing brand-new, shiny New Year’s resolutions every.freaking.year, and start building something that actually lasts: self-trust.


You don’t *need* new goals - you need more belief in yourself and follow-through with what you’re already doing!


Self-trust isn’t about confidence or motivation - it’s about evidence. When you repeatedly set goals that are too big, too vague, or not aligned with your real life, your brain stops believing you. 


Clear, specific goals remove pressure, reduce decision fatigue, and turn intention into ACTION.


Ultimately, real self-trust isn’t built in hype moments at the start of January - it’s built in the boring, everyday moments when you follow through anyway. That’s how you stop starting over (for good)!!
