Why waiting for January keeps you stuck — and how starting in December gives you an unfair advantage.

Most people are already giving themselves permission to fail — and they don’t even realise it.

Every December, millions quietly decide that this month doesn’t count.

They overeat. They switch off. They delay change.

All while telling themselves: “I’ll sort it in January.”

That mindset is the very reason January fails.

In this live session, I’m breaking down:

Why waiting for January actually reinforces the identity you’re trying to escape

The psychology behind why 92% of New Year’s resolutions fail

Why starting in December gives you an unfair advantage

How to build momentum before the world wakes up

A simple 14-day framework to reset your identity and habits — without burning out

This isn’t about hustle.

It’s about who you’re becoming when no one is watching.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated with yourself, or tired of restarting your life every January — this is for you.

📌 LIVE CHALLENGE:

Before this session ends, you’ll commit to one action you’ll take today — not tomorrow.

🔥 Ready for real accountability?

My Ascend programme has limited spaces opening before January. Imagine being six sessions deep while everyone else is still planning.

📘 This session is inspired by my work on identity and behaviour change, including concepts from The Identity Wheel.

👉 Share this with someone who keeps saying “I’ll start in January.”

January isn’t a starting line.

It’s a checkpoint.

In this video, I explore how small, everyday “glimmers” can shift your nervous system from stress and overwhelm into calm, presence, and emotional regulation. If you struggle with anxiety, overthinking, or feeling constantly on edge, this might be the missing piece.

A glimmer is the opposite of a trigger – it’s a tiny moment of safety, joy, or peace that signals to your system, “I’m okay.” And when we learn to notice these moments intentionally, we begin to rewire our baseline state from stress to grounded confidence and self worth.

This isn’t toxic positivity. It’s nervous system awareness. When we learn to slow down and recognise what’s good, safe, and true in the moment, we create space to respond instead of react. Over time, that changes how we see ourselves, how we show up, and how we experience life.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, try this: For the next 24 hours, notice and name three glimmers. See what happens.
