As 2024 gives way to 2025, we stand in the liminal space between what has been and what is yet to come. 

This week, I’m reflecting on what it means to truly let go—of outdated identities, confining beliefs, and the stories that no longer serve us—so we can step into our next evolution with intention.

In this episode, I share the themes emerging from my own life design process, a big announcement about the future of Thrive, and a heartfelt invitation to bring this year to a close with love and purpose.

Let’s embrace what matters most, honor the journey we’ve been on, and decide who we’re becoming in the days ahead.

Key Takeaways:

1. To Grow, Have To Let Go: Growth requires releasing outdated identities, beliefs, and roles.
2. 
   
3. Love as a Guiding Principle: At the end of life, what will matter most is how well we’ve loved ourselves, others, and life itself.
4. 
   
5. Living Fully in 2025: Embrace a life you love through intentional actions and meaningful connections.
