Ep. 166 | The New Year's Reframe That Will Actually Help You Thrive in 2026
Only 9% of people achieve their New Year's resolutions—and nearly 80% have given up by the third week of January. In this episode, Dr. Avanti shows you a different path: one that leads to sustainable change, a regulated nervous system, and alignment that feels like coming home to yourself.
In this solo episode, Dr. Avanti shares the powerful reframe that changed how she approaches the new year—and why the "new year, new you" mindset is actually setting most of us up to fail. The problem isn't willpower. It's framing.
Dr. Avanti walks you through three science-backed shifts: from self-improvement to self-alignment, from goals to feelings, and from the calendar to nature's rhythm. She also shares her "highest self" visualization practice and explains why—in an age of AI and wearable trackers—understanding your dosha (your unique mind-body constitution) is more important than ever.
