149. The Year of the Fire Horse: Using the Lunar Calendar to Reset With Intention

149. The Year of the Fire Horse: Using the Lunar Calendar to Reset With Intention

We’ve reached the part of the year where January motivation fades. Luckily, we get another reset! In this episode, I’m breaking down the Lunar New Year, the symbolism of the Fire Horse, and what this year represents energetically. We talk about movement versus direction, independence versus emotional avoidance, and how to build disciplined momentum instead of chaotic hustle. If last year was about shedding (Year of the Snake), this year is about strength. I’m sharing how I’m personally approaching it - physically, emotionally, and creatively - along with a mini “Horse Year Audit” you can use to recalibrate your own life
