Tired of setting the same New Year’s resolution every year…only to quit by February?

That’s why I ditched resolutions years ago and started using one simple strategy that actually helped me stay consistent, lose weight, and build the life (and health) I wanted. It’s called a Word of the Year—and it’s not just cute Pinterest inspo. It’s a game-changing mindset tool that’s helped me and my Mindful Weight Loss Academy clients have our most grounded, powerful, and aligned years ever.

In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact exercise I use to choose my Word of the Year—plus, I’ll reveal my word for 2026 (hint: it’s not “hustle”). We’ll talk about why typical resolutions don’t work, how to create momentum that lasts longer than your leftover holiday cookies, and how to show up for yourself even when “life gets lifey.”

I reveal my top tips, tricks, and strategies to help you dial in on your weight loss goals for 2026 and choose a word of the year that aligns with your big dreams. It's time to push the boundaries of what you thought was possible for your health and get crystal clear on what's in store for you!

If you’re ready to stop quitting on yourself and start building habits you can actually stick to—this episode is your first step.

xoxo,

Jackie
