Listen "DLC #9 Soft Launching December "
Episode Synopsis
In this solo episode, I talk about shedding the pressure to deliver a polished year end character arc and why real growth rarely waits for a calendar to give permission. I get into the psychology of “temporal landmarks,” why New Year momentum fails most people, and what it means to choose your own turning points instead of performing them for an audience. This is an invitation to let December be a hinge instead of a finish line and to honor the shifts that never made it into a highlight reel. If you have been feeling behind, scattered, unfinished, or simply human this one is for you.Sources:Milkman, K., et al. (2014).
