"Direction is more important than speed." -- Meg

In this episode:

1. How to plan your 2026 year with soft energy—and stop forcing clarity when your nervous system is asking for space.
2. The difference between goals vs intentions, and how intentions create alignment without the pressure spiral.
3. How to identify what drains you vs expands you—and choose what feels ready to shift without overwhelming yourself.
4. How to turn a big dream into one tiny doable step, a simple non-negotiable, and a word that becomes your North Star.

Today is our 2026 planning episode—and I designed it intentionally around the Lunar New Year, because this time of year is actually the perfect window to reset your direction without the pressure spiral. The lunar calendar is about cycles, rhythm, and intention—not rushing. So if January felt weird, slow, scattered, or like “new year, same energy”…you’re not behind. You’re just still in the transition. I’m sharing how my own year started off completely different than I expected, and how I stopped trying to force goals out of sheer pressure. Instead, I used this exact practice to create conditions for clarity—and I want you to do the same before we move into the next lunar cycle.

This episode is not a vision-and-goals workshop. It’s a soft, interactive planning practice that helps you choose your direction as we approach the Lunar New Year—so you’re not entering the year with hustle energy, unrealistic expectations, or a nervous system that’s already bracing. We’ll focus on how you want to feel as you build your life, because your subconscious responds to emotion—not logic—and that feeling becomes your compass. You will leave this episode with a North Star and a sense of calm direction heading into the Lunar New Year!

“The goal isn’t just living longer. It’s living better—more healthy years, not just more years.” —Andres Assef

We're kicking off 2026 with a conversation that makes you feel aligned, educated, and not overwhelmed about your health goals. Today’s guest is Andres Assef, a human performance + optimization strategist and the owner of MPWR Wellness—and you will be absolutely blown away with this conversation.

If you’ve tried to lose weight before and nothing sticks… if you’re exhausted by trendy diets… if you want 2026 to be the year something actually shifts in your body—this episode is for you. And if you’re looking for a quick, “bippity-bop-boo” fix… you already know this isn’t that.

We go deep into what actually moves the needle (and what quietly sabotages progress), including the truth about GLP-1s, muscle loss, stress + cortisol, and why doing the most is often the fastest way to burn out and quit. We also talk about the mindset piece: the all-or-nothing spiral, the guilt cycle, and why the most powerful question you can ask yourself this year is… “What happens if I don’t?”

Want to kickstart 2026? This episode is for you.

"Our time is our most non-renewable resource. If you’re constantly counting down the hours, the days, the weeks—it's not the time that’s the problem. It’s the place." -- Meg

In this episode:

2. Understand why certain excuses feel so convincing and how they quietly reinforce staying stuck
3. Recognize how “someday” thinking forms and what gently interrupts it
4. Take a grounded, doable step that opens momentum toward the life you actually want

Have you ever had that quiet thought creep in: “There has to be more than this…”—and then immediately talked yourself out of exploring it? In today’s episode, we’re getting honest about what’s actually keeping so many people stuck.

I walk through the three most common excuses I hear—especially from thoughtful, capable, self-aware people who want more from life but feel frozen where they are. These excuses often sound practical, responsible, and even selfless. But over time, they quietly stall growth and keep you looping in the same patterns.

I also share pieces of my own journey—from living a life that looked “right” on the outside to making aligned choices that changed everything. This episode will help you get honest about what you want, identify the beliefs holding you back, and give you the practical tools to finally move toward it. Because the cost of staying the same is far greater than the cost of going for it.
