82 | The Year-End Reset: How Working Women Can Close the Year Without Carrying It Into the Next One

Shannon Fox | Promotion & Compensation Coach Episode 82

Do you feel relieved the holidays are winding down… but also strangely heavy?

Like your body finally exhaled, and now you can feel everything you’ve been holding all year?

If you’re tired in a way sleep won’t fix, this episode is for you.

This is not a goal-setting episode.

It’s not about resolutions, hustle, or pushing yourself to be better next year.

This is about closing the year with intention so you don’t carry exhaustion, pressure, or unprocessed weight into what’s next.

In this episode, Shannon guides you through the quiet, often-overlooked space between Christmas and New Year’s—the pause your nervous system desperately needs, but rarely gets permission to take.

You’ll reflect honestly (without judgment) on what this year required of you, what you’re done carrying forward, and how to reconnect with what you want more of—without pressure or guilt.


In this episode, we talk about:
Why the “in-between week” feels emotionally heavy for high-achieving women
The difference between growth and endurance
How burnout often comes from what you carry, not what you do
What it means to close a year instead of rushing into the next one
Why wanting more doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful
How clarity (not action) is often the first form of relief


This episode is an exhale.
A reset, not a restart.
A pause, not a push.

If this year asked a lot of you—and you’re ready to finish it gently then press play.
