• New Year, Same You! Why this is GOOD news!!

  Free Organize Your Attitude Module: https://simplyconvivial.com/story - The "new year, same you" message might sound discouraging at first, but it's actually the hope-filled truth we need. Starting fresh doesn’t mean striving for perfection or chasing an unrealistic ideal. Instead, it means embracing the growth God has for us while anchoring ourselves in the reality of who we are—people in constant need of grace.In this video, I reflect on the temptation to use guilt or perfectionism as motivation for change and why that approach never works. Real growth comes from repenting, rejoicing, and repeating—over and over again. Together, we’ll explore how to set realistic goals, take faithful steps forward, and find joy in the work God has for us today.Let’s stop chasing control, trust God’s plan, and embrace this year with gratitude and hope.Mystie Winckler encourages moms to organize their attitudes and get traction at home so we are no longer overwhelmed or frustrated with homemaking.
