In this solo episode of the We Shape podcast, hosts Katie and Tyler have an important pre-New Year's discussion about shifting perspectives on common resolutions. They caution against making goals solely focused on weight loss or the number on the scale, as this often stems from a place of self-judgment versus self-care. Instead, they suggest setting an intention around building deeper connection with one's body and inner needs.

Katie shares her own journey moving away from toxic diet culture into a more holistic mindset, learning to tune into indicators like hunger and rest. Tyler discusses the neuroscience behind opening up to new beliefs and how the reticular activation system causes us to perceive things we set intentions around, like suddenly noticing more red cars after buying one.

The hosts offer tips for avoiding all-or-nothing thinking around fitness and simply showing compassion through small acts of body and mind nurturing woven into each day. Rather than strict regimens, they emphasize feeling where tension lies and celebrating tiny moments of mindful movement or stretching as profound self-love. With warmth and wisdom, Katie and Tyler inspire us to shift the New Year’s narrative from punishing requirements to genuine presence with self.
