I just want to say that I've been debating starting my podcast and Leah was a shining light to help me bring it to life. I realized that I put off my podcast creation process because I was waiting to gather "enough information to get it done and to bring it to life. But in reality, you'll never be 100% ready, so you just have to take the plunge and put yourself out there. Leah helped me answer a few questions I was trying to figure out and also her Podcasting Problem Show podcast helped me think through a few elements that were blocking my progress and had me second guessing. So thank you Leah! And if you're in here and you're second guessing yourself and feel like you're not quite ready, get the answers you need and then take action! You'll start to feel more ready the more steps you take! So now I am working towards launching my podcast in January! Here's the cover my audience helped me come up this week or so!

I’m spending today baking all the things and prepping for Christmas tomorrow with family - but however you’re spending these days (celebrating, working, resting, or just getting through it) - I hope it’s gentle on you. This community is still brand new, and I know we’re all figuring out the rhythm here together. Some of you are probably deep in holiday mode. Others might be sneaking in strategy time between family obligations. Both are completely valid. No pressure, no expectations this week. Just wanted to say I’m glad you’re here. When you’re ready to dig back into strategic podcasting stuff, I’ll be here. Merry Christmas! – Leah

It's Christmas week, and I'm guessing your brain might be somewhere between "cozy holiday mode" and "wait, what day is it again?" Here's the thing to remember: Slower weeks are actually strategic weeks if you use them intentionally. So this Monday, I'm asking you the same question, but with a holiday twist: What's your ONE focus for this week? Maybe it's: - Actually taking a full break (yes, this counts as strategic!) - Using the quiet time to map out Q1 strategy - Finally listening to those episodes you've been meaning to analyze - Batch recording while your calendar is lighter - Or simply catching up on admin that's been piling up There's no "right" answer here. Just what feels most aligned with where you are and where you're headed. Drop your ONE focus below. And if your answer is "I'm fully unplugged," I want to hear that too. Strategic rest is still a strategy. 🎁
