What if looking back on your year could help you see yourself more clearly, and step forward with intention?

In this special year-end episode, I step into the mic solo to reflect on 2025: the first full year of the Viking Academy Podcast. Across 26 conversations with thinkers, healers, entrepreneurs, and explorers, a powerful theme emerged: true growth happens when we explore the mind, body, and spirit together.

This episode isn’t a highlight reel, it’s a guided reflection. I revisit the insights that shaped me most this year, share what challenged my thinking, and invite you to pause and reflect on your own journey through 2025. Along the way, I offer simple questions, practices, and a grounding ritual to help you integrate what you’ve lived, not just intellectually, but experientially.

This is about wholeness, not hacks.
Integration, not optimization.
And remembering that the joy is in the exploration itself.
