In this solo episode, Maya takes you behind the scenes of her own 2025 year in review and shares an easy, data-informed method you can borrow for your own reflection.

Instead of relying on fuzzy memory or end-of-year recency bias, Maya uses a monthly “Ta Da List” (a done list), Apple Notes, and a touch of AI support to create a much more accurate picture of what actually happened this year: in work, life, family, health, money, and more.

She also shares what surprised her most when looking at the honest ‘data’

If you’re a high achiever who tends to underestimate what you’ve done (and rush on to the next thing), this episode will help you slow down, take stock, and see just how much your effort has really created

💡 You’ll Learn

• A simple monthly reflection method (the “Ta Da! List”) you can start now
  

• How to use notes + tech to make your year-end review more accurate
  

• Why we underestimate our progress when we only review at the end of the year
  

• How seeing the full picture of your year shapes your 2026 goals for what’s next
