We’re rounding out the year with a final hostful, where Ben and Brooke chat about the year that’s been, some highlights, some very exciting future plans, and answer three most excellent listener questions. (They were also interrupted approximately eleventy billion times while recording, so if they seem a little crazy - that’s part of the reason. The other part is that they're like that all the time.)

The questions tackled in this episode are related to:

- finding a balance between community service and living a slower life
- how to avoid the ‘all or nothing’ tendency once we start to explore slow living
- how to balance extra-curricular activities with a slower family life

As always, there are rarely straightforward answers to any of these questions, which is what makes it so juicy and interesting to talk about.

It’s hard to believe this is the final episode for 2015.

It’s been such a cracking year, and we’re so incredibly grateful for everyone who’s listened, shared, rated or reviewed the show since we launched in April. Massive thanks to you, from us!
