The Biggest Lessons I Learned In 2025 12/24/2025

The Biggest Lessons I Learned In 2025 I’m so glad you’re here for this solo episode of the Amberly Lago Show. Just you and me, heart-to-heart, as I open up about everything this past year taught me while we get ready to walk into 2026. I’m sharing my real journey: the highs like speaking on 58 stages across the country and releasing my book “Joy Through the Journey,” and the tough moments too, including medical setbacks and those times I had to ask for help, let go, and learn to truly care for my soul. This episode is about what I learned in the trenches, from hitting record numbers in interviews and events to finding joy in quiet, simple wins (and ridiculous TV shows) when my health failed me. I want to give you the honest strategies I use to lift myself up, set the right boundaries, refocus on what matters, and reframe my entire relationship with success, joy, energy, and even money. I talk about the importance of community, connection, slowing down, and counting the wins no one else sees. I hope this episode encourages you to reflect, embrace your journey, and step into this new year with more joy, grit, and unstoppable resilience than ever before. Thank you for being such an important part of my community. Let’s walk this journey together, one real step, one small win, and one grateful moment at a time. And let’s have an unstoppable 2026!
