What a year it's been; thank you all for joining us! Today we're taking a look back on 2024 and ranking our highs and lows. It can be easy to first remember the challenges, and that's certainly how we start out in this episode, ooof! However, as we continued to reflect and discuss all the many things we got to experience, we are truly grateful for what the year brought from art to travel, the power of community and everything in between. We also let you in on some plans we have for the new year, including a book that Liz is writing!

Cheers to you and yours this season. We are going to re-release our top three episodes to round out the year and will be back with fresh, new episodes in 2025.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:

• Take time to reflect on who you've become after a tough event this year. Think about how you can move forward with hope and work together with others, keeping good intentions at the forefront.

• When you travel, consider exploring places beyond the big cities. Immersing yourself in local lifestyles can open your eyes to new perspectives and bring unexpected magic into your life.

• Reflect on how the loss of friends in middle age can remind you of life's fragility. Use these moments to deepen your connections and strengthen the bonds with those you care about.
