New Year, New Me.
2
No, wait.
3
New Year, Healthier Me.
4
New Year, Wealthier Me?
5
New Year, As Me.
6
At the beginning of every year,
7
we're so busy coming up with new ways we can improve ourselves.
8
Only when we're healthier and wealthier,
9
then we can be happier.
10
But what if I just skip all of that and just be happy now?
11
As I am with my flaws and all.
12
Don't get me wrong.
13
I love the New Year energy,
14
where we collectively feel the motivation to live our best lives.
15
But I'm saying that our best lives can start now.
16
not conditional upon having a six-pack,
17
new planner, finding true love, and 10-step morning routine.
18
Can we just enjoy all the beautiful things about life as we are?
19
In a world obsessed with constant improvement,
20
that seems like the real challenge.
21
This year, I just want to know what it feels like to walk through a forest in the rain.
22
I I want to catch up with an old friend in a cozy cafe.
23
I want to run through the fields with my dogs and watch a musical with my husband.
24
I want to swim in the ocean where my feet can't touch the ground and take photos of cool-looking clouds.
25
For so many years, I've been living my life like an instructional manual,
26
when our lives are actually like poetry.
27
It's not meant to be linear.
28
There are pauses, contradictions, and silences.
29
And somehow, even when it's incomplete, it's whole.
30
We just have to be present to experience it all.
31
Last year, my one word intention was experiment.
32
I had just moved back to Portugal and I was trying to establish a life here.
33
So it just made sense to kind of go with the flow and say yes to everything.
34
I launched my essentials journal.
35
I had a retreat with one of my friends.
36
I also bought this house and I met a lot of cool people along the way
37
and did a lot of cool things.
38
But definitely towards the end of the year,
39
I felt that the season was shifting.
40
I would say 2025 was like spring to me,
41
but now going into 2026,
42
I feel like I'm in my winter season and my one word intention for this year is going to be focus.
43
Instead of setting goals to be better,
44
fitter, healthier, wealthier, I feel like just having one word intentions or themes is a gentler approach.
45
Besides, if we really had a goal,
46
we wouldn't need to declare it on New Year's Day,
47
and we would already be doing it.
48
Life shifts so quickly to be just contained by rigid goals and milestones,
49
but intentions leave room for life to move us,
50
surprise us, and still guides us forward.
51
So I want to ask you,
52
what season of life are you in right now?
53
What is the theme or intentions for this year moving forward?
54
We think of our lives as one big timeline,
55
but in truth, life is just one day at a time.
56
I know it's such a simple concept,
57
but really it gives us perspective.
58
The past is already gone and done,
59
and tomorrow is never guaranteed.
60
What we do have is just today,
61
and each morning we get to choose how we want to fill that time.
62
I think I mentioned a couple of videos ago that I am currently writing a book.
63
I've always wanted to write a book.
64
This has been such a dream of mine.
65
But I realized that I've actually been writing my book for the past couple of years.
66
I mean, I write my scripts for these videos and I write in my journal every single day.
67
I guess what I'm trying to say is I was just so hung up on this idea of being a writer,
68
of what that actually means,
69
that I forgot to realize that you become a writer by writing.
70
And that's it.
71
And if I continue to do it today,
72
every day, then that book and the identity just kind of forms on its own.
73
So if you want to be an artist, create art.
74
If you want to be a runner,
75
get your shoes and go for a run.
76
If you want to be someone who eats healthier,
77
cook a healthy meal for dinner tonight.
78
We don't become who we want to be by declaring it.
79
We become by doing it.
80
The small actions we take every single day form a constellation,
81
and over time, that the constellation leads to our North Star.
82
If I can give you any kind of encouragement,
83
that is to just not put so much pressure on yourself to be the noun,
84
to fit into this label perfectly,
85
whatever it is, and just focus on the doing.
86
And in the doing, I notice that you realize
87
if you actually love the process of it or if you are just chasing an identity.
88
Do you guys chronically use your calendars?
89
Because I know I do and I usually use it to set reminders
90
and deadlines and just for things that I need to remember,
91
I notice every time something gets put on my calendar,
92
I always prioritize it and I always try to get it done.
93
And then I got to thinking,
94
why do we not place the same importance for the things that we actually value?
95
I think it's so ironic that it's my calendar and it's my time,
96
but I was scheduling it for everybody else except for me.
97
So we're going to fix that this year and we're going to just take a moment.
98
I want you to write a list of all the things that you want to experience this year.
99
And since it's already marked on your calendar,
100
you can then schedule the rest of your life around these important things that actually add value to your life.
101
what's one thing that you want to leave behind this year one thing person
102
or an idea that is no longer serving you what are the things in your home
103
that you don't align with energetically what thought is getting in the way of you moving forward
104
so i was just kind of scrolling through the gallery on my phone the other day
105
and just kind of reflecting on the past year the things that I've done,
106
the things that I took photos of,
107
and I didn't realize how much of the past that I was still carrying with me.
108
I noticed that there were a lot of internal monologue happening,
109
the should've, could've, would'ves, and the regrets,
110
the negative self-talk, and just kind of unresolved emotions that came up.
111
And the thing with mental clutter is that we can't see it,
112
but we're carrying it around with us all the time
113
and just imagine year after year not dealing with it just how heavy
114
that load feels to us we can't just pack it up
115
and drop it off at a donation center but we can adjust them
116
and we can find a gentle approach to be able to kind of acknowledge them
117
and brush them off when they do come up.
118
What truly helped me the most is being unreasonably forgiving with myself because if I don't,
119
I know that nobody else will.
120
I literally say this out loud to myself.
121
Well, you didn't know what you didn't know.
122
Maybe you tried your best and your best was just not good enough for that person.
123
Maybe there was a blessing in disguise.
124
This is out of your control now so let's move along.
125
I asked you guys on Instagram what you are letting go of this year
126
and so many of you guys had very similar answers to me
127
and I think it's important to to do a ritual that resonates with you.
128
Write it down on a journal and watch it burn or you can rip it up.
129
You can try guided meditations or sound healing to clear your mind or you can even try somatic shaking,
130
or just kind of shaking it off physically so that you can let go and release what no longer is serving you.
131
One of the most memorable quotes from Little Prince,
132
the problem is not growing up, it's forgetting.
133
Somewhere along the way we forget that we're not just our responsibilities and our lives are not just problems to be solved.
134
We forget that within us there is a soul,
135
our inner child waiting to explore,
136
to feel deeply, to play,
137
love, and to find connection.
138
So I go to sleep pretty late
139
and I've always woken up pretty late as well and this really doesn't coincide with how society operates.
140
Of course the people closest to me were always letting me know
141
that this is a bad habits and that I need to change it.
142
But I don't know if there's any other night owls out there,
143
but you guys know that when the sun goes down that there's this whole nother world that opens up.
144
I really do believe that there are just some books
145
that are meant to be read at 2am and
146
that you're supposed to listen to some songs when it's like dead silent in the middle of the night.
147
Yes, it's probably not responsible,
148
but it makes my heart so happy.
149
I've stopped trying to change this about myself and fully embracing it.
150
And I was thinking if this is precious to me,
151
I have to schedule my life so that it makes sense for me to enjoy this time.
152
Like I said in the beginning of the video,
153
I feel like I've lived my life like an instruction manual
154
where I was kind of creating this hurdles for myself and then jumping over them and feeling productive about it.
155
But I think it's very important to pay attention to what really makes you feel alive.
156
And this is a promise to myself,
157
not just this year, but moving forward that life is too short,
158
life is too precious.
159
I will not do something unless it really lights up my soul.
160
And I usually know this by doing a quick gut check.
161
I notice that my intuition and my intuitive voice sounds very calm,
162
but over here, my fear and my doubts,
163
it always creeps in, but it's always in the form of a question and it's usually disguised as a practical option.
164
The things that we want in life,
165
the things that truly make us feel alive,
166
it's going to be very inconvenient.
167
It's going to require us to kind of step outside of our normal timeline,
168
society's timeline, and it might not even make sense to you or to anybody else in your life,
169
but if it feels right, then go for it.
170
You won't have any regrets.
171
I'm coming to the terms that our desire to want more,
172
to be more, to have more,
173
is just simply part of being human.
174
But we don't have to be in constant pursuit to live a good life.
175
If we could just truly understand how capable we are,
176
how often things are quietly working in our favor,
177
how we're being guided even when it doesn't feel like it,
178
maybe we wouldn't worry so much about the little details and trust our hearts a little bit more.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
