Are New Year’s resolutions helping your mental health, or quietly burning you out? In this episode of the Get Psyched Podcast, we unpack the difference between resolution culture and intention setting, and why the way we approach change can deeply impact our emotional well-being, self-worth, and nervous system.

Resolution culture often tells us we need to fix or reinvent ourselves to be worthy. Intention, on the other hand, invites curiosity, compassion, and sustainable growth. We explore how shifting your mindset from “have to” → “get to” can reduce anxiety, increase motivation, and support long-term mental wellness.

Today, we explore:

🎙️ Resolution vs. intention and how each affects mental health

🎙️ Why resolution culture can fuel shame, perfectionism, and burnout

🎙️ The reframe from “don’t stop” to “keep going”

🎙️ Mindful social media use and protecting your emotional energy

🎙️ Becoming the creator of your own time (instead of racing against it)

🎙️ The psychology of manifestation (grounded, realistic, and self-led)

If you’re interested in mental health, emotional regulation, mindset shifts, self-growth, or wellness without the pressure, this episode is your permission slip to choose intention over overhaul.

Press play for a more compassionate, sustainable approach to personal growth... because you’re not a problem to be solved.
