Summary

In this solo episode, I’m reflecting on my first monthly experiment in intentional living—focusing on healthier habits. At the start of the year, I was inspired by my conversation with Tyler Moore of Tidy Dad to approach New Year’s goals differently, leading me to start this Monthly Experiments series. Instead of setting rigid resolutions, I’ve been choosing one area of life to focus on each month. For January, that meant tracking simple habits like movement, hydration, and paying attention to what I’m consuming. I’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and how this experiment has shaped my mindset around actually sticking to my wellness goals. Come along while I chat about progress over perfection, finding joy in small wins, and embracing this healthier living as a form of self-care rather than pressure.
