Ep 219: Allison and Ceara wrap up their 'How to Thrive in 2025' series by sharing mindsets, quotes, advice and tips that are helping them become their best selves. Some key discussion points include the importance of taking action, hiring help for personal tasks, overcoming perfectionism, Sunday resets, and prioritizing rest. The conversation also touches on travel experiences and the significance of quality over quantity in life and wellness.

A core value of our show and personal ethos is to “romanticize our lives” so a lot of what we share in this episode goes back to that.
