We’re kicking off our final episode of the year by revisiting our 2025 predictions to see who deserves bragging rights (and who needs to quietly log off). We also make some 2026 predictions, and can't wait to see how wrong Laura is this time a year from now!

Then we're getting reflective with a deep dive into personal values, resolutions, and themes for 2026, inspired by Brené Brown’s framework of choosing just two core values to guide your life. We unpack why clarity around values helps reduce shame, strengthens boundaries, and makes hard decisions easier, especially when life gets loud or uncomfortable. We get into how we plan to live these values in 2026, from setting firmer boundaries and protecting work-life balance to journaling, changing family dynamics, and choosing alignment over comfort.

And we've got your final 2025 recommendations locked and loaded: Santa Fe Style Salad with Chicken - Fresh Retail, Private Label, Foodservice (Andrew), giving the gift of time with you to a loved one this holiday season (Laura), and Softymo deep cleansing oil (Pam). 

And in this week's installment of After Dark, we go deeper into our values and share some recent life events and realizations that have helped firm up our values and our boundaries. 2026 will be the year of boundaries, self-advocacy, equity, and having absolutely zero patience for bullshit as we get older.
