Why New Year’s Resolutions Don’t Work: Blue Monday Explained & 3 Tools to Achieve Your Goals

In this episode, I’m sharing why New Year's resolutions don’t work and what to do instead for a successful 2025.


Only 9% of people stick to resolutions. I want to help you avoid failure by taking a smarter approach to goal setting.


Here’s what I cover:


The Three Critical Questions – Key reflections to gain clarity and direction.
Why Reflection Matters – How looking back helps you move forward.
Identifying What Works and What Doesn’t – Fine-tuning your approach.
Learning From Your Experiences – Insights to guide better decisions.
Creating a Goal-Setting Framework – A practical system for success.


I share real-life stories of people who have used this framework to transform their lives.
