5 New Year Tips That Actually Work

It’s the first Monday of 2026 — and yes, this is a New Year’s episode… just not the kind you’re used to.

In this episode of the Talkin’ Crazy Podcast, I’m not here to sell you a “new year, new you” fantasy or pressure you into rewriting your entire life overnight. Instead, we take a moment to acknowledge the fact that we made it — through the highs, the lows, and a year that tested a lot of people in ways they never expected.

I break down five realistic New Year tips that actually work, especially if you’re tired of setting goals you never finish. We talk about why you don’t actually need a New Year’s resolution, how to start before you feel ready, setting goals that are realistic and obtainable, being kind to yourself without making excuses, building the right connections, and why prioritizing memories matters more than nonstop productivity.

This episode is about consistency over perfection, progress over pressure, and giving yourself grace while still holding yourself accountable.

If 2025 humbled you, stretched you, or forced you to grow — this one’s for you.

🎧 Tap in, lock in, and let’s move smarter in 2026.
