Life in the Middle® with Sharona Patrice
Lessons from the Middle
I started the Life in the Middle® podcast to share my thoughts and revelations about life and to spark conversations about topics rarely said out loud. In this 50th episode, I reveal the podcasting lessons and surprises I've encountered on my way to reaching this important milestone.
I'm getting vulnerable and sharing the truth behind creating my podcast and my journey as a podcast host. I talk about the production challenges—from audio-only closet recordings to video clips—and why living my life is essential for sparking episode topics and conversation. I've learned that consistency and discipline are the qualities that keep me going. I use my voice and this platform to connect with you and hopefully make a difference in how you relate to yourself and others.
Spicy Gems from Sharona
"If you don't take yourself seriously, if you don't think that the things that you're creating are worthy and worth it, then nobody else will."
"Consistency and discipline have been my North Star."
