À propos de ce contenu audio

 Welcome back to Grab Her By The Mic - the podcast for women who enter the new year with goals, intentions, and absolutely no guarantee of follow-through.This week, we’re talking New Year’s resolutions - what we want to achieve this year, what we’re pretending we’ll achieve, and why we’re making the deeply unhinged decision to hold ourselves publicly accountable so the internet can keep receipts.But first: Recap & Rosé 🍷We debrief an emotionally turbulent separation, lingering Shitmas resentment, ghost food in the fridge, a chaotic New Zealand departure, and a Christmas present that absolutely redeemed itself.Then Han & Philsy go full Hyperfix and deep-dive into horses and snakes and rebirths, oh my - plus the research on why resolutions fail, why January is a psychological trap, why motivation is fake, and what actually works if you want goals to survive real life, kids, bad sleep, and low energy.And as always, we wrap up with our SideQuest, except this week, instead of a silly little task, we’re laying it all out, making our 2026 goals public, and letting you emotionally supervise us.And finally, in Chaos Correctional, we:Explain what Chinese New Year actually is and when it startsDefine parasocial relationshipsTalk about time blindnessAnd address a formal complaint from Han’s husband regarding her personality✨ This year’s vibe:New year. Same people. Better systems.Explicit, feral, occasionally educational and accidentally therapeutic.
