Ep. 224: Goodbye 2025, We Won’t Miss You

EQ: How did 2025 live up to or exceed our expectations?

In this episode of IWL, Hope and Annie look back with humor, honesty, and a healthy dose of side-eye, asking whether the year lived up to expectations at all. From Korean skincare and bold, joyful aesthetics to political wins and  AI overload, nonstop global crises, and media consolidation fatigue. 

We asked listeners to share their joys, self care secrets and wildest events of the year. Stories range from milestone celebrations and unexpected personal growth to collective rage, political whiplash, and finding comfort in small, grounding rituals. Together, the episode becomes a communal reckoning with a chaotic year, balancing exhaustion and hope while naming the moments that made survival, connection, and even delight possible.
