New year, same pressure? In this episode of From the Mount, Steve Kyle talks with therapist Jessica Alexander and Viola Lussier about why New Year’s resolutions often fail—and what to do instead. They explore the power of choosing a Word of the Year, letting go of all-or-nothing thinking, and pursuing growth with intention, not burnout. If you’re tired of starting the year feeling behind, this conversation is your permission to grow with purpose and grace.
