As 2025 comes to a close, we’re slowing down to look back—and gently lift our eyes toward what’s ahead.

In this final episode of the year, we’re reflecting on the highs, the hard moments, the lessons learned, and the quiet growth that happened behind the scenes this past year. Life as a Stage Wife often unfolds offstage—in the waiting, the holding down the fort, the late nights, the early mornings, and the unseen faithfulness. And this year held plenty of all of it.

We talk honestly about what worked, what stretched us, and what we’re carrying forward into 2026. We also share what next year will look like for Offstage and On Duty, our hopes for this community, and the rhythms we’re choosing as we step into a new season.

Most of all, this episode is an encouragement—to remind you that you are not forgotten, not alone, and not behind. Wherever you’re ending this year—tired, hopeful, grateful, or unsure—there is grace here for you.

From our hearts to yours, thank you for walking this road with us. We’ll see you in the new year.

In this special interview, Ray and Rhy sit down with licensed therapist — and fellow Stage Wife — Sam Beretta to talk about something we all feel this time of year: holiday triggers. From family dynamics to shifting expectations to the whirlwind of tour schedules, Sam helps us understand what’s actually happening in our nervous system when stress hits, and how to regulate it with simple, practical tools.

With honesty, humor, and the wisdom of someone who lives this life too, Sam breaks down why the holidays can feel overwhelming and how to find peace in the middle of the chaos. Together, we explore grounding practices, emotional safety, healthy boundaries, and how to care for yourself while caring for everyone else.

✨ If the holidays bring up “a lot,” this conversation brings clarity, comfort, and the calm you’ve been craving.
