Synopsis
As the year comes to a close, the pressure to reinvent ourselves starts to rise. “New year, new me” culture tells us we must transform, overhaul our habits, set 20 resolutions, and show up in January as a completely new woman. But what if you don’t have to? In this Mid Week Tease episode, Adelle Onyango offers a soothing, truth-filled conversation about stepping into the new year gently, without burnout, shame, or the pressure to rebuild yourself from scratch. We explore:
Why January reinvention culture creates unnecessary pressure
How the self-improvement industry profits from women feeling “not enough”
What gentler, more realistic growth models look like
Why healing and change don’t follow calendar timelines
How to honour the version of you that carried you through this year
Soft, sustainable shifts you can embrace instead of drastic reinventions
This episode is for anyone feeling exhausted, uncertain, reflective, or overwhelmed by “new year expectations.” You deserve a beginning that feels kind, not punishing.
