Summary
Have you ever looked back at last year and thought… how did I survive that? Same.This episode is a 2026 reset. We talk about how bad things got in early 2025, the anxiety spirals, the breakup that took me out, and why running from your life doesn’t actually work. Then we shift into what did help - interrupting negative thoughts, finding good minutes instead of a perfect life, and small mental habits that make things feel lighter over time. Not healed. Just better. And that’s how we’re doing 2026.
