Ep. 59: How My 25 in ’25 Became A Survival Manual for the Hardest Year of My Life
Episode 59
Thursday, 11 December, 2025
This episode of Adventures with My Forties takes you inside my annual “25 in ’25” project — not as a checklist, but as a narrative of what kept me afloat during a year marked by fires, grief, medical emergencies, and profound change. I walk listeners through the goals I set last December, before life cracked open beneath my feet, and how revisiting those projects helped me regain momentum when the fog of tragedy began to lift. From evolving out of hot yoga and falling in love with strength training, to reinventing my home with gardening and decluttering, to reading 100+ books and diving deeper into my Brazilian side quest, I share the small anchors that helped me rediscovered myr joy and curiosity. I reflect on the goals that didn’t happen, the ones that shifted into something new, and the surprising ways creativity resurfaced on its own. I'm so grateful I created my 25 in '25 list last December, because I was able to use the trail of breadcrumbs left by December 2024 Courtney to find my way out of the most profound grief I've ever experienced. And next week: I"ll share my 26 in ’26 list! 💌 Email: CourtneyHenningNovak@gmail.com 🌍 Show notes + newsletter: CourtneyHenningNovak.com
