Values Aligned New Years Intentions

New Year intentions don’t need to be bigger, stricter, or more punishing to work. In this episode, Marci and Lauren talk about why values-aligned intentions are the key to creating change that actually lasts, especially for high-achieving women who are tired of setting goals that look good on paper but fall apart by February. We break down the difference between chasing outcomes and anchoring your intentions to how you want to feel, live, and show up in this next season. You’ll walk away with practical prompts to clarify what truly matters to you right now, how to filter decisions through those values, and how to set intentions that support your body, energy, and real life, not just your calendar. We also share a big announcement about what’s coming next and end with a heartfelt thank you to this community for being here and supporting us for the past year and a half!

Simple Ways to De-stress this Season

Nervous system regulation isn’t about doing more; it’s about creating safety, predictability, and fewer decisions in an already chaotic season. In this episode, we normalize why December feels so edgy and explain why it’s not a willpower problem, but constant nervous system activation from packed calendars, disrupted routines, and decision overload. We break down what regulation actually looks like for high-achieving women: not long meditations or perfect self-care, but simple, real-life practices that help your body exhale, reduce reactivity, and make everyday decisions feel easier. You’ll learn practical, doable ways to regulate in real life using predictability, daily anchor points, and quick body-based resets—plus how reducing micro-stressors (like meal and schedule decisions) directly supports better sleep, steadier energy, and more consistent habits.

From unconventional routines to mindset shifts that make everything feel easier, they break down the strategies that help them feel good without going into all-or-nothing mode.

What It Takes to See The Next Level of Results

Marci and Lauren dive into the truth about weight loss at every stage, from day-one beginners to women who are already lean and looking for that next level.  They unpack what really moves the needle, why the basics matter more than you think, and how to stay consistent no matter where you are in your journey.
