Whether you're deep into your healing journey or just starting out, sometimes we need a reminder of the most important things to focus on.

info_outlineHey everyone, welcome back! As we near the end of the year, it’s a great time to reflect on what’s worked – and what hasn’t. In this episode, I’m speaking directly to those of you who’ve had a tough year, especially if you’ve been struggling to move past a difficult breakup. Together, we’ll look at why it’s been so hard to get unstuck and, more importantly, how you can make next year different.
I’ll share insights on the stages of grief and how we often find ourselves holding onto emotions like denial, anger, and regret far longer than we realise. If you feel as though you’re looping in these stages, you might be reinforcing patterns that keep you from moving forward. Let’s talk about the difference between healthy processing and unhelpful rumination, and explore strategies to leave those habits behind.
This episode is all about preparing for 2025 with purpose. Instead of waiting until New Year’s Eve to set resolutions, I’ll guide you on how to gradually build a new version of yourself, starting right now. By identifying what truly motivates you and setting small, achievable goals, you’ll set yourself up for long-term success instead of quick burnout.
Questions to ask yourself:
- What kind of person do you want to be a year from now?
- How do you want to feel about yourself and your life?
- What’s one step you can take today to start moving forward?
If you’re ready to start letting go of the past and embracing the possibilities ahead, this episode is here to support you. Listen in, take notes, and let’s make the next year your best one yet.
