New Year New Me

In this episode, we wrap up the holidays and everything that comes with them - the exhaustion, the chaos, and the mental gymnastics of remembering what you bought, where you hid it, and whether you accidentally panic-bought.

The conversation shifts to one of the moments that makes all the stress worth it: when your husband swoops in with a surprise gift and absolutely wins Christmas. We talk about how meaningful it feels to be seen, surprised, and cared for after carrying the holiday load.

From there we talk about vacations and how they are often the highlight of the year. But we also dig into the deeper question: if we're always longing to escape, what does that say about our everyday lives? We explore the idea that while travel is important, home should also be a place we genuinely want to be - and if its not, it may be worth examining the root of the disconnect.

This episode is equal parts lighthearted and thoughtful reflecting on the bigger questions that tend to surface as the holidays come to a close.
