Bridget Phetasy and her co-host/husband Jeren Montgomery, a licensed marriage & family therapist, look back on 2023 and reflect on where they were at this point last year, the changes the year had in store for them, what they’re most proud of and what they’d do differently. They discuss the differences between intentions and resolutions, their move to Texas and what they’ve found in a new community, seeing Christmas through their daughter’s eyes, having the space to make mistakes, looking ahead to 2024, and how grateful they are that they don’t have to deal with the world of dating anymore.

Questions:

* When you look back on the year, what are you proud of?

* What would you do differently?
