In this solo episode, I sit down to reflect on 2025 without a doubt one of the most transformative years of my life. I share 25 lessons shaped by real experiences across personal growth, building a podcast, launching a media company, relationships, discipline, failure, and long-term thinking.

This episode isn’t about perfection or overnight success. It’s about the process learning to sit with discomfort, embracing failure as feedback, and understanding that consistency and discipline will always outperform motivation.

I dive into the power of mentorship, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people, and how communication, personal branding, and community have played a massive role in opening doors I never thought possible.

We close with a strong focus on the future aligning daily actions with long-term goals, investing early (in mindset, skills, and finances), and intentionally becoming the person your future requires.

If you’re heading into a new year wanting clarity, direction, and grounded perspective this episode is for you.
