This is the final episode of 2025 — and it’s really just us saying thank you 💛

Just Charlotte and Kiet back where it all started — the two of us on a video call, coffee in hand ☕️, reflecting on a year that flew by faster than we expected.

Somewhere between recording episodes, replying to messages, running events, and figuring life out, Product Pals quietly became a community. And this episode is our little pause to acknowledge that.

In this conversation, we chat about:

• The stories, people, and moments from 2025 that stayed with us
  
• Conversations that went beyond “product” and into being human
  

• A few things we’re learning to let go of as the year closes
  

• And what we’re gently hoping for in 2026 — for the podcast, and for ourselves
  

If Product Pals has been something you’ve listened to on a walk, during a commute, while cooking dinner, or in a quiet moment — this episode is for you.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening, sharing, and supporting in big and small ways.

💛 Product Pals Podcast works best when you’re part of it.

We hope you’re getting some real rest, spending time with people you love, and stepping into 2026 feeling a little lighter and hopeful — just as we are!

We’ll be back in the new year with more stories, more connection, and the same heart.

Enjoy the last few days of 2025, see you in 2026 💛

👋 Quick heads-up!

You might notice a small Descript watermark on this video.

We’re experimenting with a few new podcast tools at the moment and are currently on the free trial while we evaluate whether this platform is right for us (and whether we’ll move from our existing setup).

It shouldn’t affect the listening experience — but if it’s distracting or gets in the way, please let us know. Your feedback really helps us improve 💛

Thanks so much, and we hope you enjoy the episode!
