What if January isn’t meant to be a fresh start — but a moment to breathe?
In this solo episode of Flying Upstream, host Kristin Medeiros explores the intense and often unspoken pressure to reinvent yourself at the start of the new year. From goal-setting culture to “new year, new you” messaging, Kristin gently challenges the idea that growth must be loud, fast, or visible to be valid.
She speaks directly to those who feel tired, tender, or unsure — especially after a difficult year — and reminds listeners that survival is not failure. Growth doesn’t always come from dramatic transformations or bold declarations. Sometimes it comes from quiet honesty, self-reflection, and allowing yourself to move at your own pace.
This episode offers permission to pause, grieve past versions of yourself, and reconnect with what actually drains or energizes you — without judgment or pressure. It’s an invitation to choose depth over display and alignment over expectation.
If January feels heavy instead of hopeful, this conversation will help you feel less alone — and more grounded in who you already are.
