It’s the same story every December:

Everyone’s tired, everyone wants a break, and somehow everything suddenly becomes “urgent”… even when it absolutely isn’t.

In this final episode of Season 1, I talk about the strange end-of-year ritual we all participate in, the non-urgent urgency. Why we do it, how it shows up in real businesses, and what we might do differently next year.

We cover the “bookend effect,” the habit of finishing instead of fixing, the emotional pressure to “finish strong,” and why January in Australia is actually a gift if you use it well.

A light, honest wrap-up to the year, with a few laughs, a bit of Aunty Donna energy, and a look at what’s coming in Season 2.

If you’re tired, cooked, or sprinting to imaginary deadlines… this one’s for you.
