Listen Later

hi hello hey, and happy new year!

2020 has been a difficult year for everyone, but we still wanted to look back on it and the ways we’ve grown. We also wanted to mention what we’re looking forward to in 2021 and get excited about little things like seeing friends, sitting in cafes, or most of all, getting the vaccine! Despite this year being how it was, we hope you could enjoy your small wins, even if it was just getting out of bed. Thank you for being here with us,, and we hope you’ll keep joining us in the new year!

episode summary

First, we start by talking about our goals starting out this year and then we go through the spring, summer, and fall, reminiscing on the good and mediocre of this year. After that, we talk about what we’re looking forward to in 2021, and what we hope can open safely after the vaccine.
