In this episode of Kafe with David & Gaï, we slow down to process 2025 with the helpful framing of our winter break journey from Yaoundé to Cairo with a detour in Ethiopia!  Inspired by an Egyptian saying, “Every delay has a good reason,” we explore how disappointments, pauses, and reroutes may not be setbacks at all, but quiet gifts that protect us, shape us, and gently redirect us toward what truly matters.

Together, we reflect on the final weeks of December — a sacred pause in the year — and how family, presence, and gratitude help us land softly after a season that didn’t always go as planned. This conversation is about hope, timing, perspective, and trusting that sometimes the detour is the destination.

If this year stretched you, slowed you, or surprised you, this episode is for you.

Pour a cup, breathe, and join the conversation.
