Hey y’all! Welcome back to the Brown Heart Podcast. This week, we’re talking about the power of reflection and resetting as we prepare to close out 2024. It’s a busy season, and if you’re feeling the pressure to wrap everything up perfectly, trust me—you’re not alone. But here’s the truth: the way we end the year sets the tone for how we step into the next one.

Last year, I made the mistake of pressing the gas through November and December, thinking I could do it all. By January, I was completely burned out. This year, I’m doing things differently—with more intention, reflection, and grace—and I want to share how you can, too.

• Why resetting matters: The importance of pausing, reflecting, and creating space for renewal.

• Practical ways to reset: From setting a theme or word for 2025 to detaching from outcomes we can’t control, we’ll discuss how to close the year with clarity.

• A reflective practice: Four key questions to guide your reflections as you navigate the transition from 2024 into 2025.

• A mindful moment: A guided exercise to help you release what’s not serving you and carry gratitude into the new year.

• Self-Care Item of the Week: I pulled my juicer back out to reset from all of the Thanksgiving goodies! This juicer has been by far one of my favorite juicers!

• Word of the Year Inspiration: Reflecting on my 2024 word, rhythm, has been a reminder to stay aligned with my internal flow.

• Gift Items for Your Favorite Yogi: I decided to create a collage of gift ideas for your favorite yogi! Check it out!
