Hey babe — this episode is a must-listen as we start out the year. We’re talking about why so many of us avoid reflecting on our past year… and how we can finally do it without spiraling into shame, guilt, or self-judgment.

We break down why reflection feels so loaded (especially for women), and how to flip the script so we can actually get excited about the things that didn’t go the way we planned. Instead of using our past as evidence that something is “wrong” with us, we show you how to treat it like clean data — information that helps us move forward faster.

This conversation is raw, funny, and incredibly practical. We talk about using your photo album and calendar as simple reflection tools, and we share our biggest lessons from the year, around movement, friendship, intuition, rest, boundaries, and slowing down.

You’ll hear us talk about:

• Why reflection brings up so much shame (and how we stop making it mean something about us)
• How we learn to get excited about failures instead of beating ourselves up
• Why collecting data is the fastest way to create real change
• Simple ways we reflect using our calendar and photo roll
• Why movement, strength training, and rest completely change our mindset
• Why scheduling fun and connection isn’t optional — it’s a need
• How insourcing (trusting ourselves first) changed everything
• Why slowing down and breaking up with hustle actually works
• How intentional time with our kids doesn’t “just happen”, it has to be planned

If you’ve been avoiding looking back because you’re scared of what you’ll find, this episode is your permission slip to do it differently. We think you’ll be surprised by how much there is to celebrate...and how powerful it feels to learn instead of judge.

Next up, we’ll be diving into how we’re planning 2026 — but reflection is the foundation. Don’t skip this part.

Let us know if you’re reflecting on 2025 and what lessons stood out for you. Happy New Year, babe. 💫
