Hey friends, welcome to Old Fashion On Purpose, the show where we explore what we have left behind as a culture as we have raced towards progress.

But not only that, we talk about how we can get all of the good pieces back into our modern lives.

So I'm your host, Joe Winger.

I am an author and a creator,

and I have been homesteading out on the wide open

Wyoming prairie with my family for about 15 years now. I love teaching people old-fashioned

skills helping them to wrestle with big ideas and doing deep dives into, let's just face it, pretty nerdy topics.

So that's the show, I'm excited to have you here.

It's a new year, it's a new season, and I'm ready for 2024.

I have spent the last week or two planning and dreaming and looking at what worked and what didn't in this past year.

There's something about this time of year between Christmas and New Years especially for that first part of January

I'm always just like extremely motivated to plan and dream and I just love it.

It's one of my favorite times of the whole year. So I've been spending a lot of time thinking and I thought it may be helpful for you.

If I distill down some of my big, let's face it, wins and losses or wins and lessons of 2023.

2023 was a good year for us.

We had some big lessons,

happen or be completed.

There was also some really big lessons

that I know will impact me as an entrepreneur,

a business owner, and just a human, for for many many years to come.

So this is partially a selfish episode.

I want to kind of break through these things and process them
