Before you begin:

Light a candle, maybe make some tea, and put on nice music. Turn off your phone during the reflection and consciously take time to review the year. I also recommend doing this by hand.

1) Year in Review “Big Picture” 2025 (10 min)

Questions:

  1. “What were my 3 most important highlights of 2025 – and why were they important to me?”
  2. “What were 2–3 difficult moments in 2025 – and what did I learn from them?”
  3. “Which habits or decisions shaped my life most in 2025 (positively or negatively)?”
  4. “If I had to summarize 2025 in one sentence / as a book title – what would it be?”

Optional: 5 minutes of sharing in a circle (everyone shares 1 sentence).


2) Category Reflection (90 min)

The categories are inspired by the “Wheel of Life.”

1/ Career

  1. “What am I most proud of professionally in 2025?”
  2. “Where did I grow – skills, self-confidence, responsibility?”
  3. “Where did I hold myself back or fall short of my potential?”
  4. “What headline would my professional year 2025 have in a magazine?”
