You Don’t Need a New Year — You Need a Nervous System That Can Hold Your Vision (Ep 65)
In this episode, Kelly Jackson delves into why the motivation of New Year resolutions often fades by mid-January or early February. She reveals that the issue isn't a lack of discipline, but rather how our nervous systems perceive growth as dangerous, leading to self-protection rather than self-sabotage. Kelly offers insights into why willpower alone is not enough and emphasizes the importance of self-love and support systems for sustainable change. Tune in to learn how to build a safer internal environment, why vision needs capacity for long-term success, and explore the transformative power of Self-Love Uni, a live group coaching container designed to help you build lasting change.
From the Episode:
- " ...willpower is a short term strategy. It can initiate change, absolutely, but it cannot sustain it if the body doesn't feel safe."
- "We regulate in relationship. That's not a weakness. That is biology. When you are inside a consistent, safe container, your nervous system settles. Your patterns become visible without shame, and growth feels supported instead of forced."
- " That's not self-sabotage, it's self protection."
- " ...the issue isn't intelligence or desire. It is that the nervous system is overwhelmed. When your system perceives stress, it greatly narrows your capacity and your body is going to prioritize... survival."
