This is a podcast for all who love reading and those in pursuit of a nerdy friend!</p><p><br></p><p>On this special episode, I talked about the difficulty in keeping the momentum going for resolutions. I have been struggling to come up with a “special theme” for the first episode of the year, and it suddenly dawned on me that I could be honest about it. And that was what I did in this very short chat (though one-sided). I also touched upon perfectionism and why it could get in the way of getting motivated to do something. I hope this episode could comfort you if you feel like you have “failed” to accomplish your resolutions for this year :)</p><p><br></p><p>To know more about the book on the episodes, follow me on Instagram @bookish.memories Don't forget to check out my Patreon page and give me some feedback:&nbsp;<a href=\"https://linktr.ee/bookish.memories\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://linktr.ee/bookish.memories</a></p>","author_name":"Bethany Yuan"}
