Welcome to the first episode of All Around Growth in 2025! Season 6 kicks off with a heartfelt reflection on the past few weeks and a glimpse into life at York Meadow Farm. From preparing for a traditional Orthodox house blessing after Theophany to the simple yet transformative act of cleaning and organizing, this episode dives into the personal growth and new beginnings shaping the year ahead.
Host Rob Kaiser also shares updates on his evolving family dynamics, the progress of his relationship (taking an intentionally traditional approach), and the creative work behind his new video for Patreon subscribers. Plus, he reflects on the surprising peace that comes from stepping back, thinking, and connecting with the All Around Growth community.
Tune in for an inspiring start to the season, and as always, thank you for being part of the journey!
