Kerri & Meg swap cozy, real-life tips for how to plan a Galentine's party—think pink drinks, appetizers, crafts, a soft dress code—and share introvert-friendly Galentine's party ideas that make guests feel comfortable. They walk through using a Canva Galentine's invitation template you can text to neighbors, simple decor in pink-gold-cream, and easy mocktail/cocktail options (like a pink grapefruit spritz or an ice-cream shake). No nearby friends? They even map out Zoom Galentine's party ideas with icebreakers, bring-a-friend vibes, and flexible “wrap-up when the energy dips” hosting etiquette.

In this cozy, daydream-fueled episode, Kerri & Meg sketch their vision for a device-free wellness retreat in Wisconsin —think a women's retreat in a barn with high ceilings, a chef’s kitchen, gentle yoga and massage, farm-to-table cooking classes, nature hikes, and tiny cabins circling a campfire. They talk through why boredom sparks creativity, how a no-phones policy rebuilds real connection, and the first practical steps to make it real for guests who need rest, community, and a reset.

Meg and Kerri ditch resolution pressure and share a gentle goal setting framework for 2026 using their something old something new goals format—keep the habits that work, try one new thing, and drop what’s no longer serving you. With real-life examples—bedtime stretching, the four out of seven rule for skincare and snacking, swapping afternoon coffee for tea to ease anxiety, beginner strength training with heavier reps, weekly grocery planning, the one-in-one-out closet rule, and mindful Amazon batching—they show how to redesign health, relationships, and home without the must-do list.

Meg and Kerri crowdsource their Word of the Year ritual and read listeners’ 2026 words—alignment, gratitude, calisthenic (beauty + strength), intention, explore (Italy + Duolingo), grace, trust, fruitful, resilience, thrive, curiosity, peaceful and powerful, and peace and harmony—then share their own: Trust (Meg) and Growth (Keri). They show how a North Star word can guide daily decisions (mirror reminders, trip planning, relationships) and offer word of the year ideas plus simple tips on how to pick a guiding word. If you’re ready to pause, reflect, and choose your 2026 word, this episode makes it friendly and doable

Kerri & Meg look back on 2025; their first 10 months of Redesigning Health and Home—15 guest interviews, a new logo, listener emails rolling in—and how “redesign” shows up in small daily shifts, from empty nest home redesign stories to GLP-1 nutrition support explained. Highlights include Whitney English’s “Organize First, Decorate Second,” CrossFit at 50 courage, adaptive fashion, trauma-informed living, and even Disney travel planner built-in commission tips that make trips smoother and cost the same. They close with gratitude, a Listen Notes top 10% nod, and a teaser for 2026 “word of the year” goals.

In this candid conversation, Kathleen Paley (The Reframe) shares how values-based minimalism and financial independence helped her buy back your time strategy—cutting Target runs, auditing family schedules, and even reducing TV nights. She explains how she learned to set boundaries in big law, negotiated a two-day workweek, and chose a staggered FIRE early retirement with her husband, reframing money from buying things to buying time, plus practical health tactics like a treadmill desk and standing during month-long trials. Listeners get actionable ideas on consumption “use-it-up” challenges, points-and-miles travel, and community volunteering that turns reclaimed hours into purpose.

Meg and Kerri play a holiday “Something’s Gotta Go” game—“tangled lights vs sticking your hand in the raw turkey?”—and trade cozy, low-stress ideas you can actually use, like gutter clips for Christmas lights and kid-made brown paper gift wrap. They also spark the Advent calendar vs Elf debate, chat traditional vs themed trees, and share festive DIYs like a DIY ugly sweater with lights you can make from thrifted finds. Light, nostalgic, and practical for anyone shaping simple family traditions this season.
