too much.

Thankful for what did not work out


Listen Later

As the year comes to a close, Emma sits down for an unfiltered, end-of-year reflection that has nothing to do with “New Year, New Me” and everything to do with who she actually showed up as in 2025. Look back with Emma on the most evolutionary year of her life — from walking away from a podcast she built from the ground up, to launching Too Much from scratch, to navigating a life-altering breakup, a move, and a complete redefinition of what choosing yourself really means. She’s going down the rabbit hole down on why the new year isn’t always about reinvention, but about integration, self-trust, and honoring the version of you that survived what you didn’t plan for.

This episode is about boundaries that cost you something, resilience that surprises you, and the quiet wins that don’t show up on a highlight reel — the no’s you said, the times you walked away, and the moments you refused to self-abandon even when it would’ve been easier to stay.

After laying 2025 to rest, Emma shares how she’s thinking about 2026 — not through resolutions, but through intention: how she wants to feel, what she’s no longer available for, and what she’s willing to commit to consistently. If you’re entering the new year carrying unfinished emotional business, unmet expectations, or grief for the life you thought you’d have by now, this episode is your permission slip to properly close the chapter before opening the next one.

So, cheers to surviving. Cheers to choosing yourself. And cheers to doing it all again — just smarter.
