Hey y’all, it’s the final episode of the year, and we’re closing out 2024 with a deep dive into resilience—what it means, how it shaped me this year, and why it’s the word I’m carrying into 2025.

This year wasn’t a cakewalk. I faced job loss, strained relationships, personal setbacks, and a whole lot of uncertainty. But through it all, one lesson kept showing up: resilience. In this episode, I’m sharing my raw reflections on how life’s challenges tested me and, more importantly, how they helped me grow.

From learning to recharge like a drained battery to fighting for myself in ways I never have before, this year taught me that resilience isn’t just about bouncing back—it’s about rising stronger, even when it feels like the world is on your shoulders.

Here’s what we’ll talk about:

• Resilience redefined: Why I didn’t see myself as resilient before and what changed.
• Lessons from the trenches: How I handled major setbacks, including a tough summer and financial stress.
• The gift of resilience: Why I believe resilience is something we’re given, not just something we build.
• Small wins that matter: From taking 30-minute walks to creative bursts that reignited my drive, I share the little steps that helped me stay afloat.

This episode isn’t just about my story—it’s about all of us who faced challenges in 2024 but kept pushing forward. Whether it was personal struggles, professional hurdles, or the heaviness of the world around us, we’re still standing.

Let’s step into 2025 with a renewed sense of strength and purpose. You’re not alone in this journey, and together, we’re building something stronger.
