In this episode ofThe New Wave, Maria kicks off season two with a powerful reflection on 2025 as a “redo” of 2020—a year to integrate lessons from the past four years and approach life with renewed intentionality. She shares insights from a transformative period of rest, where she stripped away habits, routines, and dopamine-driven behaviors to uncover deeper truths about self-worth, achievement, and the power of receiving.
Maria discusses how her disciplined lifestyle, while productive, masked an underlying belief that self-worth was tied to achievement. Through extended stillness, she confronted feelings of helplessness, redefined her relationship with effort, and discovered the magic of receiving as a path to gratitude and fulfillment.
She challenges listeners to examine their own relationship with doing versus receiving and invites them to explore creation from a place of trust, ease, and spaciousness rather than urgency and force.
This episode serves as an invitation to reflect on personal growth since 2020, identify patterns that need reworking, and step into 2025 with a new approach to ambition, creativity, and self-acceptance. Maria encourages listeners to embrace a state of timelessness, release scarcity around time and productivity, and allow themselves to receive the magic that life has to offer.
