109: Do You in 2022

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It's the end of yet another dark and trying year, but, man, we made it, and it’s time to look forward to the coming year! As you all know, each time we enter a new year, society always presents us with such things as weight loss challenges, and programs and products being sold to supposedly make you better and fitter and change your life, enticing you to desire something different. This can all lead to a ‘not enough’ perspective, and today I’m here to make sure we don’t fall into that ‘I’m not enough’ trap, and instead determine what exactly we need for ourselves, so that we can ‘do us in 2022’.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">First we’ll look at these ‘you're-not-enough’ and ‘don't-you-want-to-be-more?’ messages, as well as the answer to them which is that we are all different and do not have to cave to societal pressures, so we should focus on our own unique needs and desires. I’ll reflect on the uncertainty, anxiety, and hopelessness of 2020 and 2021, the goals that were not achieved, the rationale of setting fewer goals in 2022, and the value of turning our attention to self-care and rest. Finally, I share my personal goals for 2o22 and encourage all to set goals according to what we think is best for us and not what everybody is selling.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And, as always, if there is ever a topic you would like me to discuss, a guest you'd like me to interview on the podcast, or feedback you wish to offer, please feel free to contact me at</span> <a href= "mailto:pr@kellytravis.net"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">pr@kellytravis.net</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">- I would love to hear from you!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span><strong>The Finer Details of This Episode:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight:
