Hey there, counselor friend. This is episode 300, and I truly can't believe we've reached 300 episodes of this podcast.

Today marks the final episode, and I'm feeling a lot of emotions—but more than anything, I feel content. This podcast has served its purpose, and there are now hours of episodes you can listen to that are designed to help you simplify your life as a school counselor, while also empowering you to feel more confident and prepared in your role.

My goal has always been to share the experiences and strategies I've learned along the way—so you can make your day-to-day easier, support more students, and advocate for the important work you do.

Whether you've been listening since day one or you're just discovering the podcast, thank you. Truly. Your kind words, emails, and testimonials have shaped this space and made it what it is.

I started School Counseling Simplified in October of 2020. At the time, I was a new mom to my first baby, living in San Diego. Now, I have three beautiful children, and we've spent the past few years living in Costa Rica. It's been such an incredible journey, both personally and professionally.

When I first started, I didn't even have my IMPACT membership or courses. Watching how those have grown, and the impact they've had over the years, has been so meaningful.

I'm going to link some of my favorite episodes below so you can dive in and revisit a few highlights.

And if you've found this podcast helpful, I think you would absolutely love my IMPACT membership. It's a supportive community of counselors, with monthly professional development and access to hundreds of resources—all designed to help you feel confident and supported in your role.
