How was your 2025?

2025 was a pretty good year for me.

I'll share with ya'll a quick recap of my

Highlights,

Setbacks, and

Takeaways from that year.

Here's to another time capsule to listen back on.

Another year has passed and my dreams aren't realized...

I feel like I haven't achieved what I wanted to by this time. It saddens me that my life is where it's at... The disappointment I feel paralyzes me sometimes... So, I wanted to share my thoughts and emotions instead of waddling in the dark abyss.

This is my attempt to acknowledge my inner world and highlights as well as practice gratitude and mindfulness.

If you can relate to the birthday blues, you are not alone. One day at a time, we got this.

What do you want 2026 to look like for you?

It's that time of year again: the holiday season.

Have you been working on your goals lately?

I definitely have. I feel like I disappeared from the world for awhile as I lock myself in my dream room. Overwhelmed sometimes, though I have been focused.

Sneakpeak into this episode:

I love the video edition of this episode! I added a lot of visuals. Also, this is a hybrid of my IRL face and my Vtuber model.

There are only 3 months left of 2025! Aaahhh... It's crunch time. I'm not sure how I'm going to achieve all of these goals, though I'm shooting for the stars anyway.

Ever felt that even though you're busy, you feel like you got nothing done?

Well, life has been chaotic in the past couple of months.

Today's episode include:

• Updates
• Reflections
• And Check-Ins

How do we become whole? Let's explore this concept with Brian Seth Hurst!

This is the first episode of Season 3 and Brian is our first featured guest! It was his birthday on the day of this recording, so ya'll can type Happy Belated Birthday to him in the comments (if ya'll are on YouTube or Spotify).

We read some excerpts from his books WHOLE and The WHOLE Companion Workbook in this episode. I enjoyed how interactive and in-depth the exercises and questions were. Here is a quick quote:

"We must reconcile our past, embrace our present, and create our future." - Brian Seth Hurst

If you so choose, join me on this exploration as we do these exercises together. Autonomy, as we emphasized, is empowering when paired with awareness. In simple terms, it feels great to know that you have the ability to choose and choose again.

Video Edition of This Episode:

Season 3 is here! I'm so excited to have actual conversations with ya'll. I decided that YouTube shall be the designated place for the video editions of these episodes. Ya'll can inquire about featuring on this podcast through email, katerraspeaks@gmail.com, or social media (@katerraspeaks).
