THE HIGHLIGHT REAL: A NEW YEAR'S EVE REVIEW GAME 🥂

Scene: It's NYE 2024. I'm enthusiastically creating printable google docs to take to my sister's house, in hopes that at least a few members of my giant extended fam will review their camera rolls and dream about their futures with me at our party tonight.

Think I'll have any takers?

Surely my four-year-old will color a sheet with me. 🎨

I come bearing good news either way:

It's not too late to accept my truth and dare challenge. ⚡️

It actually never expires. (NYE is just a fun easy countdown timer.)

My dare to myself was to get a fresh podcast on the books / RSS feeds before the clock strikes midnight, which worked out perfectly, because once I got the idea to make these docs for my fam during Noey's power nap, I knew I had to share them with you too.

Here's the result - complete with faint fireworks booming in the background:

You can find it on Apple and here on Spotify.

In it I share the word I'd use to describe my 2024 (spoiler: HABITS, the theme of all episodes in this Spotify playlist), plus a sneaky peek into what I'm planning for us in 2025.

There's plenty more in the 13-minute episode, but for quick and easy (possibly pre-midnight? reference), I'm including a recap of the exercise I'm printing for my fam below.

Would love to hear any of YOUR insights as you scroll camera roll and play along with us:

First - take a look through your camera roll to remember WTF just happened.

Anything that's there is something you found noteworthy at some point.

Let's revisit. Month by month.

Once you've refreshed your memory and taken note of your most meaningful and/or memorable moments of the year...
