These were your favorites (and I get it)

That’s a Wrap!

I’m about to slide a batch of gluten-free gingerbread cookies into the oven and shut my laptop for good this year, but I couldn’t logoff without sharing this.

This has been quite the year over for me. In 2025 alone, I…

traveled more for work than ever

delivered a keynote on my dream stage (Kit’s Craft + Commerce)

published my book, When I Start My Business, I’ll Be Happy and got to see it all around the U.S. in bookstores (!!)

seriously grew my podcast, On Your Terms®️, and honored my desire to stop talking about legal stuff on there.

Per usual, I’ve shared a ton of content with you this year — on my podcast, here on LinkedIn, on Instagram, and even on my Substack (a more personal, behind-the-scenes place for me).

I’m cordially inviting you to my content wrapped party!

Sam Vander Wielen 2025 content round up — I had so much fun making this on Canva lol

Scroll down to find what you loved most on my podcast (On Your Terms®️), in this newsletter (Sam’s Sidebar), and on my Substack (Beyond Business) this year.

Comment and tell me which episode, newsletter, or Substack post was your favorite of 2025!

I hope you have a great holiday and a happy, healthy new year!

Huddy (my bernedoodle 🐶!) asked me to include a pic of him below. He’s a little obsessed with how cute he is.

I’ll be back in your headphones on January 5 with a brand-new episode of On Your Terms®️ and in your inbox on January 6 with a new issue of Sam’s Sidebar.
