New Year, New You Is a Lie (Here’s What Actually Works)

Описание: Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...)


The phrase “New Year, New You” sounds hopeful—but it often sets people up to abandon themselves instead of build continuity. In this episode, Jonah challenges one of the most popular personal-growth narratives and replaces it with something far more sustainable. Rather than chasing reinvention, this conversation focuses on alignment, continuity, and identity-based growth that actually survives real life. This episode helps listeners stop restarting, rebuild self-trust, and understand what real, lasting change looks like when motivation fades and reality stays.
