A year-end reflection on surrender, control, and what it means to want something from life without trying to force it.

In this Christmas special, I reflect on 2025; what I’m leaving behind, what I’m taking with me, and what I hope to grow into next year. We talk spirituality without bypassing responsibility, the tension between surrender and agency, and why preparation matters more than manifestation.

Also included:

* My product of the year: Kindle

* My two books of the year:

* Fiction: Tuf Voyaging — George R. R. MartinA surprisingly hilarious and thoughtful sci-fi novel. Witty, strange, and one of those books you slow down on because you don’t want it to end.

* Non-Fiction: Creativity, Inc. — Ed CatmullStill my favorite non-fiction book. An honest, human look at leadership, creative culture, and building something that outlives you. Worth rereading — multiple times.

* And, of course, a very serious dark chocolate review with an updated ranking system

Thank you for listening, co-creating, and being part of this strange, honest experiment. See you next year.
