New Year, Who Dis?

Fresh off a whirlwind of holiday celebrations, it’s time to take a breath and look towards the year ahead. While January may be synonymous with clean slates and making (and sometimes breaking) “resolutions,” it can also put us in a bit of a slump. 

Don’t hang up your sequined attire yet; we’re sharing our list of wow-worthy ways to get inspired in the new year. 


 

In the new year's hopeful wonderment, you might find yourself re-evaluating your business goals. You could also find yourself Insta-scrolling your industry "friends," falling prey to the dreaded but oh-so-common comparison trap.

With the holidays over and the reality of getting back to business starting to set in, penciling in a little “me” time is more important than ever. Having regular reminders to calm TF down and get in tune with your body can provide major personal and professional results. Meditation is a game changer when it comes to decreasing stress and increasing focus.

Interested in easing your worry woes? We highly recommend the Soul Care Community by our dear friend Gurminder Banga. The SCC is designed to help high-achievers and go-getters make genuine connections, reduce anxiety, and give energy to what matters most. Try it out and find your tranquility tribe with a complimentary session.  


 

Get in, loser. It’s time to ring in the new year with the musical adaptation of the 2004 film Mean Girls, coming to the big screen on January 12th.

While we can’t fathom how she can top the original, we’re going to give Tina Fey a shot to change our minds. Starring a slew of funny phenoms like fellow SNL alum and Lady’s Man Tim Meadows, Busy Phillips, and Jon Hamm, we’re excited to see if it lives up to the hype.  

So, dust off your Burn Book and get out your pink tracksuit—Mean Girls is here to make our January a little more fetch.

Looking for a warm and cozy meal that won’t undo your “eat healthier” resolution? Try your hand at Food Network Magazine's  Spicy Vegetarian Chili  recipe that’s sure to be a new favorite in your winter meal rotation.  

With its unexpected ingredients like cocoa and coffee, we love its molé vibes. Plus, the ability to vary spice levels or swap ingredients makes it as versatile as Meryl Streep. Keep it vegetarian or add ground meat to make it a little heartier.

Bonus: Use the leftovers to make nachos for your weekly Taylor Swift spotting (or Sunday football for non-Swifties). 


 

Did the stress from last month leave you feeling tighter than your New Year’s Eve party Spanx? Loosen up and release some pent-up tension with Flow a 30-day yoga journey (only available in January!) led by Adriene Mishler of Yoga with Adriene.  

Her encouraging and relatable personality (not to mention her furry sidekick Benji) won our hearts during the pandemic. With her large category of videos on her YouTube channel and the Find What Feels Good community, Adriene has something for every level. Join now to start feeling ohm so good.

Year after year, we’re taught the recurring lesson that resolutions are regularly forfeited by February. While that might fly for your promise of going easy on the cocktails or swearing less (who the f*ck needs to do that?!), it just won’t do when it comes to running your business.  

The simple truth is that Resolutions Aren’t Real. What is real? Setting S.M.A.R.T. (Strategic, Measurable, Actionable, Realistic, Timely) goals—learn how with this throwback feature
