Episode 9, The Banty, is a solo Christmas-vibe episode. This year looked different—no trip home, no familiar faces—but the silence opened space for creativity. Podcasts on repeat. Books stacked up. Good music. Good energy. Letting the quiet work instead of fighting it.

This episode is about embracing what is. Meeting random people, going out a little more, spreading love and being open enough to receive it back. A reminder that the world is a beautiful place—even with dark storms, unexpected loss, and things we never see coming.

Life isn’t promised to be easy.

It is meant to be lived.

Enjoy the ride.
