For the final episode of the year, we’re closing things out with one of Walt Disney’s most underrated statements: “It’s all been a dress rehearsal...we’re just getting started.”

In this episode, we break down why this line from Walt is the perfect mindset to carry into 2026. We talk about why this year wasn’t a failure or a setback, but preparation. Training. A warm-up for the magic you’re about to step into.

I’ll walk you through three big ideas:

• why everything you lived through this year was like a "dress rehearsal"
• why you can’t afford to settle on old wins
• and why you’re stepping into the new year more ready than you think

Plus a little heart-to-heart about what I learned this year, the growth of this amazing community, and why I’m so grateful you’re here.

Before we wrap up, I'll tell you what’s coming next: my Top 4 episodes of the year (to close out 2025), the new Disneyland Mindset Workshop, and a quick update on my new handle, @thereimagineer.

This is your end-of-year spark: the rehearsal is over…you’re just getting started.

Helping you silence the villain in your mind and become the hero of your story!
