Today's episode is bittersweet because it's the season finale of Teach Me Something New! Since we're nearing the end of year, we thought we could remember and reflect on some of the top lessons from 2021. We've had nearly 50 guests join us this year to teach us all about everything including: aging, hypnosis, nail and skin care, happiness, stress management, parenting, productivity, Enneagrams, intuition, politics, entrepreneurship, social media, and so much more. And look, we don't expect you to remember it all — so, allow us to present a handy crash course in the lessons you won't want to miss. So sit back, relax, and enjoy our highlight reel from 2021 so that you can enter the new year a little bit wiser. And get ready, because TMSN will be back with more incredible guests and helpful tips in the spring! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
