It’s officially been ONE YEAR of Everything’s Perfect, and somehow, Autumn and Donald are still here… slightly more evolved, slightly more unhinged, and with a full camera roll of memories to prove it.<br /><br />To celebrate, they do what no one should ever do lightly: scroll back through an entire year of their lives, month by month.<br /><br />What starts as a fun trip down memory lane quickly turns into something deeper.<br /><br />Because this year? It wasn’t just highlight reels.<br /><br />It was breakups and big risks.<br /><br />New beginnings and unexpected endings.<br /><br />Moments they wanted to freeze… and moments they barely made it through.<br /><br />From dream milestones like Donald buying his Jeep and turning 40, to Autumn navigating heartbreak and still getting on a plane to Paris… this year didn’t hold back.<br /><br />There were Hyrox races on no fuel, family moments that hit harder than expected, trips that revealed way too much (including Donald’s deeply concerning sheet-tucking behavior), and a Thanksgiving that came with a surprise case of E. coli.<br /><br />And somehow, in the middle of all of it… they kept showing up.<br /><br />For the podcast. For themselves. For each other.<br /><br />This episode isn’t just about what happened.<br /><br />It’s about what it means to look back and realize:<br /><ul><li>You survived things you didn’t think you would</li><li>You grew in ways you didn’t notice at the time</li><li>And the hard parts didn’t cancel out the good ones</li></ul>If you’ve been wondering whether your year “counts” because it didn’t go perfectly… this one’s for you. Because somewhere between the chaos and the laughter, one truth stood out: <b>Joy isn’t something you wait for.</b><br /><br />It’s something you choose. One year down.<br /><br />And somehow… everything’s still not perfect.<br /><br />⏱️ Key Moments<ul><li>0:50 – One Year Anniversary: Did we think we’d make it?</li><li>1:53 – Starting the camera roll recap</li><li>2:28 – April: Launching the podcast + Mexico trips</li><li>7:48 – May: Donald buys his dream Jeep</li><li>9:57 – June: NYC trip + Hyrox chaos</li><li>11:42 – Donald turns 40</li><li>15:14 – July: Breakup + Paris trip</li><li>18:11 – August: Hometown visit + unexpected moments</li><li>20:04 – September: Proud parenting + milestones</li><li>25:36 – October: Costumes, merch &amp; Nashville</li><li>28:55 – November: Aruba + the sheet situation</li><li>31:57 – Thanksgiving chaos (E. coli 😵‍💫)</li><li>35:49 – December: Christmas + Hustle Hard filming</li><li>39:05 – New Year’s reflections</li><li>43:06 – January: App launch + big life shifts</li><li>47:11 – February: Hyrox Vegas struggle</li><li>50:57 – March: New projects + momentum</li><li>52:43 – “Joy is an act of resistance”</li><li>53:02 – Favorite episodes recap</li><li>1:03:12 – Outro</li></ul>💌 <b>Got something you need help navigating? </b><br />Send in your “Phone a Friend” — relationships, family, money, dating, life… nothing’s off limits.
