Description

In this special New Year episode, Jenny and Toni sit down to reflect on a year that felt both impossibly long and shockingly fast. 2025 brought duality, growth, intentional rest, and some of the most meaningful work in PATHPod history. Together, they revisit the moments, conversations, and collaborations that shaped the year — and share a glimpse of what’s ahead for 2026.

Highlights from Our 2025 Journey

• 
  Two major PATH retreats — thoughtfully designed, deeply restorative, and filled with community, creativity, and courage.
• 
  A season of intentional simplification — fewer episodes, more space, and a renewed commitment to “allowing” rather than over‑doing.
• 
  Behavior‑change in real time — how trimming, focusing, and negotiating priorities mirrored the work we guide our clients through.
• 
  Solo episodes from Campbell — Toni’s community‑rooted conversations during a season when both hosts were navigating big family milestones.
• 
  Trademarking PATH Positive Approaches to Health — a huge milestone that stretched both hosts into new, uncomfortable, and empowering territory.
• 
  A powerful fall lineup — inspiring guests, innovative approaches, and rich conversations that carried us through the last quarter of the year.

Teaching Kitchen Collaborative Symposium

Jenny and Toni share reflections from the December Teaching Kitchen Collaborative Symposium at 1440 Multiversity — a gathering filled with innovation, systems‑level thinking, and a deep sense of community.

 Key themes included:

• The expanding role of teaching kitchens in healthcare and community settings
• Collaboration across chefs, clinicians, educators, and policy leaders
• Sustainability, resourcefulness, and redefining what a “teaching kitchen” can be
• Reconnecting with past PATHPod guests and forging new partnerships

Celebrating Our Guests

From Dr. Jessica’s spotlight episode to the inspiring conversation with Maggie Doyne, the final months of 2025 delivered some of the most meaningful stories and strategies we’ve shared on PATHPod.

Music, Metaphors & Meaning

As always, Toni brings her signature soundtrack — songs that capture the spirit of the year, the joy of collaboration, and the magic of showing up. From Phil Collins to Roberta Flack to Broadway classics, the playlist becomes a playful, heartfelt reflection of the PATHPod journey.

Looking Ahead to 2026

The new year brings a fresh theme, new energy, and another “opening of another show.” With seasons, seasoning, and the ongoing evolution of PATHPod, Jenny and Toni step into 2026 with gratitude, curiosity, and a renewed commitment to helping listeners build their own positive approaches to health.
