Summary

Tired of setting New Year’s resolutions that fizzle out by February? The problem isn’t you—it’s the patriarchy. In this episode, I teach you how to “patriarchy-proof” your resolutions so they reflect your values, not the ones you’ve been trained to prioritize.

We’ll dig into how social conditioning shapes your goals without you even realizing it—and why breaking free from those patterns is the key to creating lasting change. If you’re stuck repeating the same resolutions year after year, this is the shift you need.

All right. So recently I posted a video to my Instagram stories that got a lot of responses.

1:06.5

And I want to share the core idea with you. It's about how to patriarchy proof your resolutions.

don't even realize when it's operating. So let me give you an example. This is one of the examples

I shared on my Instagram story. Let's say that,

as was the case, in 2024, one of my resolutions and goals was to show up on video more for my
