As 2025 comes to a close, Herm’s House Podcast takes a moment to slow down and reflect on a year filled with growth, parenting milestones, coaching memories, and big family transitions.

In this episode, Kristin and Herm talk about why New Year’s resolutions aren’t enough, how mindfulness and intention shaped their year, and what it’s like watching your kids grow faster than you’re ready for. From launching the podcast and building a new studio space, to coaching youth sports and navigating the bittersweet reality of raising kids, this conversation is honest, reflective, and deeply relatable.

Instead of focusing on January goals, this episode is about setting intentions all year long, creating a supportive family environment, and learning how to hold pride and letting go at the same time.

If you’re a parent, a coach, or someone navigating change while trying to stay present — this one’s for you.
