As the year comes to a close, I always find this stretch between Christmas and New Year’s to be a natural pause, an opportunity to look back at what’s been built, what’s still in motion and what I’m carrying forward. 2025 wasn’t about big announcements or finish lines. It was about momentum, collaboration, worldbuilding and continuing to show up across multiple creative lanes. Here are a few highlights from the year.
