👑 We are not done yet

Happy New Year, Swagger Fam! 

We are not done yet. I am not done yet.

Every chapter can be full of strength, power, and reinvention.

Take this moment to look inward and ask yourself: what story am I writing right now?

You’re holding the pen. Own it.

Then write your story.

Dry January strategies that actually stick 🥂 It’s 2026—we’re officially in the post-holiday reset, and a lot of people are diving into Dry January. I don’t drink, so over time I’ve figured out what actually makes skipping alcohol feel easy, not restrictive.

Dry Jan isn’t about giving something up. It’s about getting curious—paying attention to what makes you feel good, what supports your energy, and what you want more of in your life. If you’re doing Dry Jan this year, here are a few simple strategies I use to stay consistent. ⬇️ 

1) Keep the ritual, change the ingredient. It’s not always the drink—it’s the moment. A nice glass, ice, a squeeze of lime, a pause at the end of the day. There are tons of non-alc options that let you keep the ritual intact. Lately, I’m loving Kin’s Matchatini.

2) Remove decision fatigue. Stock your fridge in advance. Have go-to non-alc options ready so you’re not negotiating with yourself at 7pm when willpower is low.

3) Decide ahead of time what you’ll say “yes” to. Instead of focusing on what you’re skipping, decide what you’re adding: better sleep, clearer mornings, fewer crashes, more hydration, more presence.

4) Don’t make it all-or-nothing. Progress isn’t fragile. One night doesn’t undo a month of intention. Consistency is about returning, not being perfect.

5) Track wins, not days. Instead of counting down the calendar, notice the signals: clearer mornings, better workouts, calmer evenings, steadier energy.

6) Make hydration non-negotiable. A lot of cravings (and fatigue) are dehydration in disguise. To kick off 2026, Pocono Maple Water is inviting us into a 24-Day Hydration Challenge—a simple reset built around one powerful question: what’s in your water? The idea is easy: swap sugary or overly processed drinks for a clean, single-ingredient option and pay attention to how your body responds.

Pocono Maple Water is pure maple sap tapped from organic maple trees in the Pocono Mountains, lightly filtered and bottled as-is. No additives. No carbonation. No flavoring. Just tree-filtered hydration, naturally rich in minerals and electrolytes.

If you’re ready to support natural hydration and start the year feeling clearer and more energized, join the challenge and give your body what it actually needs. Use code SWAGGERBOGO for a free case when you buy a case of Pocono Maple Water. #ad

Here’s to a fresh start, a clearer body, and a strong, intentional New Year ahead. ✨

 .WHAT I’M LISTENING TO. 

A Guide to Modeling Healthy Habits 🎧️ This episode of Chasing Excellence is a must if you’ve ever felt torn between raising kids and taking care of your own health. Spoiler: they’re not competing priorities.

It pulls together six powerful conversations on parenting, resilience, and building environments where healthy choices just happen. The big takeaway? How you live becomes the culture your kids grow up in. No perfection. Just modeling, systems, and daily reps. Worth the listen. ⬇️ 

Quitter’s Day ❌ This Friday, the second Friday in January, is when most people abandon their New Year's resolutions. This is not a day I celebrate, fam!

If you’re not ready to quit, here's how you can conquer challenges and stick to those New Year goals:

1. Start small: Small, consistent changes build habits—the key to lasting change.

2. Focus on the "Why": Anchor your actions in the reasons behind the change. Motivation fades; a meaningful "why" makes all the difference.

3. Piggyback on habits: If hitting the gym is your thing, add five minutes for a new goal. Build on established routines.

4. Eliminate friction: Make life easier. Set out workout clothes the night before or even sleep in them to remove decision points.

5. Start today: No need to stress about January 1st. Any day can be day 1 of change!
