Twins. Funerals. Family reunions. Outlouders. A lot has happened in Mamamia Out Loud world in 2025, and in this special episode Emily Vernem, Jessie Stephens and Holly Wainwright reflect on the Glimmers found in its ordinary and extraordinary moments.
If you're wondering what the hell a Glimmer is, read this newsletter by friend of the pod Lucy Ormonde. She and Holly spent much of this year exchanging them while Lucy was treated for cancer, and the whole idea can be a way to tell someone you're thinking of them at a shitty time, and a way to look at your own life looking for the special little things that make it better.
