New Year, Same Me | Finding Hope, Rest & Growth with Stranger Things

From winter rest to Stranger Things friendships, this video is about slow growth, seasonal living, and letting change happen in its own time. In this video, I talk about why I’m not forcing a “new year, new me” mindset and instead choosing rest, reflection, and slow growth. Through the lens of seasonal living, the natural calendar, and themes from Stranger Things, this is a reminder that transformation doesn’t have to be loud or immediate. We explore: Why winter is not the season for hustle or reinvention Following the natural calendar and honoring rest Making small, sustainable changes instead of big resolutions Holding contradiction: hope and anger, joy and grief, at the same time What Stranger Things teaches us about friendship, feminism, bravery, and keeping your inner child alive Sitting with uncertainty instead of rushing clarity This video is for anyone who feels behind in January, disconnected from “new year energy,” or simply tired of being told to become someone else overnight. You don’t need to bloom right now. You just need to stay. Thank you for being here, thank you for staying.
