Most New Year’s advice starts with: “What do you want to do next year?”
This episode starts with a different question:
“What are you absolutely done carrying?”
In this episode of How to Lose the ‘WAIT’, Holly walks you through an emotional decluttering process designed for women in midlife who are ready for a real reset, not just another list of resolutions.
Instead of piling new goals on top of old guilt, outdated identities, and habits that drain you, you’ll learn how to:
- Identify the roles and identities you’ve outgrown (like the fixer, the peacekeeper, the overachiever who never rests)
- Name the beliefs and stories that no longer fit who you are now
- Spot the habits and obligations that quietly steal your time, energy, and confidence
- Sort everything into “Keep, Update, or Release” so your next chapter isn’t built on emotional clutter
- Use simple, practical rituals to let go of what doesn’t belong in 2026 and choose what you actually want to carry forward
This is the inner cleanse your New Year needs before you start setting intentions, goals, or resolutions. It’s about releasing what no longer serves you so you can step into the next chapter feeling lighter, clearer, and more aligned with who you really are.
