In this episode of the Pause Purpose Play Podcast, clinical psychologist Michaela Thomas discusses the pressure and myths surrounding the ‘New Year, New Me’ mentality.
Michaela advocates for setting compassionate, intention-driven goals instead of rigid, outcome-based resolutions which can often lead to self-criticism and burnout. She explains the importance of being gentle and realistic, especially for neurodivergent individuals, and suggests focusing on manageable, long-term changes. Michaela also introduces her online course, the Compassionate Couple, and shares a special discount offer in honor of her birthday.
