Hey Friends, This week, for the last co-hosted episode of 2023, I’m interviewed by Jennifer Furlong about the journey of hosting 'I Just Blank, Now What'. I reflect on the growth and impact of the podcast since its inception and give you a glimpse into the future plans. We talk about the importance of sustaining the podcast through financial commitment and time investment, while also considering it as a business. I share how hosting different people on the podcast has vastly added to my life, enriching my network and fostering a more understanding and empathetic perspective. The episode also discusses how each listener's engagement, from leaving reviews, subscribing, sharing episodes to becoming a patron, is very significant and appreciated.

Listen in as we talk about:

• How we know each other and the beginning of our connection

• The premise behind I Just (Blank)! Now What?

• My very first day of recording
