We're bringing the new year energy to our annual show about our intentions, goals, and plans for the year ahead. We each share our word for the year, what big things are coming up for us this year, and, as always, leave messages for our future selves.

Before we set intentions and goals for the year, we like to clear the air. This episode has become an annual tradition in which we share the annoying things in our lives that we just need to speak out loud.

For Friends of the Show, we're each sharing something not annoying at all and that is actually making our lives quite pleasant.

As we start the 12th season of the show (!!) please consider becoming a Friend of the Show if you aren't already. Each year, Friends of the Show get bonus episodes from us, a sneak peak at our episode topics for the year, and access to all of our past bonus content. Thank you so much for supporting the work we do to produce the show!

That's a wrap for 2024! We look back at how our intentions for the year showed up for us, and share what made us laugh, cry, curse, and think. Plus we share favorites from the year and hear messages from our past selves.

And just a reminder that you can still join Kelsey's goal-setting workshop, Your Year to Shine.

Today we're getting nostalgic and festive: it's 80s Kid Christmas! We're walking down memory lane and remembering what Christmas was like during our childhoods in the glorious 80s.

For Friends of the Show, we're sharing what current Christmas trends we think will seem very outdated in 30+ years.

These are the things we use up and love so much we buy them again. We swap our "empties" across food, personal care, makeup, and cleaning products. We hope you find a new favorite to try!

For Friends of the Show we think back to childhood and share our generational empties: the products we remember our family using, and maybe still use!

Plus, Erica gives us an update on her breast cancer treatment.

Today we're chatting about things that derail our days, and how we move forward. We talk about those everyday day derailers like moody kids, tech challenges, and an unexpected mess. And we explore those really big derailers including how we're processing the election and a recent breast cancer diagnosis. Then: how we move forward.

For Friends of the Show we're each sharing a recently derailed day that we had and how we handled them.

Well that's the worst episode title we've ever had. As you can see, we have a hard episode today, friends, and tissues are required. Erica is sharing details about her recent breast cancer diagnosis, what she knows so far, and how she's doing.

Thanks for being here with us, and most importantly, please schedule a mammogram for yourself if you're old enough for one or if your doctor recommends one. Here are the CDC recommendations for breast cancer screening.
