A short story of a work in progress
So it has taken me six months to get to today and it's still not right. I have been working on my new podcast format since late October and published my first episode today. The episode has high quality video, a large microphone, a podcast studio I set up in my new flat, lighting, sound proof walls, the whole shabang, but the connection between my new hosting platform (Riverside) and the distribution platforms (Spotify, Apple, Amazon and YouTube) is currently not working correctly. Story of my life. I'm using AI to troubleshoot my way through each individual roadblock, but some things are still not quite working, so I will just need to wait and see if they need time to connect correctly before I take any further steps. It's still progress and once it's all up and running it will be a much much better content creation system, but for now, it's still difficult. I've already recorded the first 10 episodes, they are ready to be released over the next few weeks and from those I will have a whole new batch of social media content to cut into shorts from tomorrow. I would love for my podcast to one day be really great, but to get to that point you have to start out with it being just good, okay or down right shit. I'm proud of what I've done so far recording 300 episodes in Season 1 documenting my entrepreneurial journey and I'm excited to take things to the next level in Season 2. It just may not be a full clean launch today. So be it. Hopefully I will be able to share the good news soon about the successful launch of Season 2 and share all the links with you guys when the time comes, but for today, I'm going to pause, get my crutches out and try to take a short walk outside on this sunny day along the water for the first time since my surgery 3 weeks ago. Imperfect action is still progress. Have a lovely day! Architect Anna
