Rethinking Resolutions: Embracing Identity-Based Change

Leading With Heart

How many times have you declared a New Year’s resolution, only for it to collect dust by the end of January? Many of us are guilty of this - me included! In fact, only about 9% of people who create a resolution follow through with it. The problem? We often set unrealistic goals for ourselves that ultimately set us up for failure.
In this episode I am sharing why I no longer set resolutions, and what I do instead. We are talking about embracing identity-based change inspired by the book "Atomic Habits" written by James Clear.
For real change to happen, understanding your motivation for change is crucial. What’s your WHY? Shifting your identity and pursuing an “Inside-Out” approach to change will help you not just accomplish your goals, but create long-lasting beliefs about who you are.
Tune in for some tips and strategies to make 2024 your best year yet, and become the person that you truly want to be! Want some extra support? Join my
“Atomic Habits” Book Club that launches at the beginning of January! We’ll hold each other accountable, and crush our goals together.
