This New Year’s Eve episode of The Frequency of Courage is not meant to be consumed quickly, it’s meant to be felt.

As the year comes to a close, host Megan Imbert reflects on the journey of the podcast, the collective themes that emerged in 2025, and what it means to choose courage over fear in a world asking us to numb, rush, and perform.

With listeners now in over 66 countries, this episode honors the shared pulse that connects us across cultures and languages: a desire to feel again, to live honestly, to heal without bypassing, and to remember who we truly are.

2025 was not a year of easy answers. It was a year of discernment, of asking:

1. What is actually aligned?
2. What only looks good on the surface?
3. What nourishes you, and what drains you?
4. What is yours to carry, and what never was?

Marked by the Year of the Snake and a nine year of completion, this season invited deep shedding, endings that didn’t need to be dramatic, only honest.

In this episode, Megan reflects on the powerful voices that shaped the show this year, including conversations around:

1. Healing after military service and the importance of community and ceremony
2. Redefining limitation, presence, and intuition
3. Leadership, burnout, and reimagining success beyond productivity
4. Women reclaiming their bodies, health, emotions, and sovereignty
5. Suppressed emotions, grief, rage, and desire as gateways to healing
6. Trauma, justice, and the courage to speak truth rooted in love

Megan also shares more of her own journey, recording more solo episodes than ever before, practicing the courage to go alone with integrity, trusting intuition as a lived practice, honoring grief, and allowing herself to be fully seen in her work. This includes speaking openly about her adoption, identity, belonging, and the complexity of gratitude and grief.

A central truth emerges:

Courage is not becoming someone new. It is stopping the betrayal of who you already are.

This episode is a remembering, a call back to embodiment, emotional literacy, moral courage, and shared responsibility. A belief that we are standing at the edge of a humanity renaissance, one rooted in dignity, truth, and presence.

If you are listening, you are part of this remembering. Every time you choose presence over numbing. Every time you choose truth over convenience. Every time you choose courage over fear.
