In this episode of Hell Yes Habits, Elyse Bushard discusses the importance of building sustainable habits rather than relying on New Year's resolutions. She emphasizes the pitfalls of the all-or-nothing mindset and encourages listeners to find their own unique habits that fit their lifestyles. Elyse introduces the concept of micro habits, which are small, manageable actions that can lead to significant changes over time.
