It seems we were just talking about our 'word of the year', and now here we are at the end of 2023! Pat is sharing four things he learned this year, but it might surprise you that they aren't huge, earth-shattering lessons, but rather simple truths that could help us all.

Listen in as Pat reflects on the lessons he learned this year, and what worked and what didn't.
