We stepped away from desks, meetings, and deadlines to sit together, talk, and reflect on what the year demanded from us and what it gave back. We talk about growth, imposter syndrome, trust, learning on the job, and what it takes to build a team that delivers even when things feel uncertain. You will hear honest thoughts from the team on being stretched, figuring things out in real time, and growing both as individuals and as a company. This is not a polished highlight reel. It is a real conversation about building, learning, and moving forward together. If you are building a brand, a team, or a career, this reflection will feel familiar.
