It's the end of 2025 (HOW?!) and we're both in very different places: Sam just moved her entire life (again), and Amanda is navigating her mom's cancer diagnosis while trying not to lose her mind before Thanksgiving. So instead of a planned topic, we're sharing what this year actually taught us.
* Why the really hard emotional work pays off, even when you can't see it happening for years
* How to let yourself celebrate milestones that don't come with cards or parties
* The weird experience of finally getting what you wanted and feeling like you can't relax into it
* Why your body needs time to catch up to big life changes, even good ones
* What it's like to survive the thing you were sure would break you
* How to exist in purgatory when you can't control the outcome
* The difference between knowing about locus of control and actually living it
* Why we're both choosing joy and mischief over optimization in 2026
