In this episode, we take a moment to reflect on an eventful 2024. It’s been a year filled with highs and lows, and with the holiday season here, it feels like the perfect time to pause, express gratitude, and think about what lies ahead. We talk about how the podcast has evolved over the past three years, from tackling controversial and meaningful topics to highlighting the incredible journeys of entrepreneurs and veterans. While we’ve faced challenges like balancing our schedules and producing content consistently, we’re proud of the quality conversations and connections we’ve built. We also dive into how our nonprofit has grown, celebrating milestones like launching it officially this year and hosting impactful events. As we look to the future, we share our goals for bringing back more topical discussions and expanding our efforts to make a bigger difference. Thank you for being part of our journey—your support means the world to us.
