ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if you didn’t wait until January 1st to change your life?
What if you started TODAY?
In Episode 85 of the Building & Becoming Show, Allie and I are talking about why New Year’s resolutions fail—and why you don’t need a new calendar.
🔥 You need new STANDARDS.
We get into the physical AND spiritual changes that can completely alter the trajectory of your life before 2027 even begins.
In this episode:
⚔️ Why January 1st isn’t magical
💪 The difference between resolutions and standards
✝️ The ONE spiritual discipline that could bring you closer to Christ
📈 Why systems, habits and accountability beat motivation
🍺 The truth about “Dry January”
📸 Why taking an honest progress picture can change everything
🔥 Why discomfort can become a catalyst for change
🏋️ What Allie learned after a leg workout pushed her to her limit
🙏 Why your current condition does NOT define your identity
🌊 How the next 90 days could completely change your trajectory
Here’s the challenge:
Ask yourself TWO questions:
1️⃣ What ONE thing does my body and health need most right now?
2️⃣ What ONE spiritual discipline would bring me closer to Jesus?
Write them down.
Then ask yourself:
If those things would matter on December 31st, why don’t they matter TODAY?
You don't need another resolution.
You need a framework.
You need standards.
You need accountability.
And you need to START.

YOU DON'T NEED A NEW CALENDAR.
YOU NEED NEW STANDARDS.
January 1st is coming either way.
The question is:
