Ep 14: End of year wrap up with Millie and Lily

The reMAKERs

It’s the final episode of the year, and Millie and Lily are feeling reflective.

What did we learn this year that we don’t actually want to forget over the delightful amnesia of holiday shut down? What were the good bits to hang onto out of covid, and where did things fall apart? What are the wild possibilities for the future?

We made a list, talked it out, and now feel much better.

If it feels like you’ve also lived a decade+ this year, you’re not alone. We’d love to hear your reflections and lessons: email us at [e-mail].

Finally, a plug. If you’re sick of toxic, depressing politics then join a community that is both smart and kind, as we explore the best version of us. You can endorse the vision and subscribe to email updates at www.AustraliareMADE.org.

Thanks so much for listening to the very first season of the reMAKERS! We’ll see you again in 2022.
