A year-end reflection on capacity, courage, and making room for joy.

As we close out the year, this episode of Adaptive Humans offers a grounded reflection — not on resolutions, but on what this year asked of us emotionally, culturally, and physiologically. Beneath polished bios, many carried unseen stress, grief, and uncertainty. Jami explores why this wasn’t a talent problem but a capacity one, what it means to be brave enough before clarity arrives, and how making room for joy supports resilience. The episode closes with a gentle Just Be Reset to help listeners pause and enter the new year with more presence and care.
