It Starts With You

Here's Some Tough Love You Might Need Going Into 2026

Julie Menden Episode 143

Happy 2026!  We’re kicking off the first episode of the new year with a fresh start, intentional reflection, and a little tough love you might need as you step into what’s next.

In this episode, I’m sharing how to thoughtfully close out the past year while setting a clear, powerful foundation for 2026. We talk about the importance of reflection, commitment, and vision, and why real growth sometimes requires hearing things that aren’t always comfortable but are absolutely necessary.

This conversation is about more than goal setting; it’s about ownership, clarity, and deciding who you want to be this year. If you’re ready to move forward with purpose, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Embracing new beginnings and what 2026 represents

  • Why reflecting on the past year matters before moving forward

  • Setting intentional goals instead of vague resolutions

  • The power of commitment and why consistency beats motivation

  • Creating a clear vision for the year ahead


  • A little tough love to support personal growth and real change


New year. New clarity. Same commitment to becoming your best self.
