I’ve always liked the practice of looking back on the year before rushing into the next one. Not to judge it or wrap it up neatly, but to notice what actually happened.
This year didn’t come with big, shiny milestones. It was quieter. Slower. And a little more uneven than others. And yet, when I took the time to reflect, it became clear just how much was happening beneath the surface.
This episode is a meander through what a year can look like when life and business don’t move in straight lines. When consistency changes shape. When numbers tell part of the story, but not the full picture. And when connection, health, and presence quietly take priority over growth for growth’s sake.
Along the way, there’s space to pause and reflect in the kind of way that helps you close out a year with more clarity and less pressure to label it a success or a failure.
If you’re in that in-between space as the year winds down, this conversation offers a calm place to land and think about what this season has really been asking of you.
