Celebrating a Year of Podcasting: Lessons, Wins, and Embracing Imperfections
One year. 53 episodes. Countless lessons.
This episode is a raw and honest reflection on what I’ve learned after a full year of showing up consistently to record Stop the Scroll. It’s personal, it’s practical, and it’s exactly what I wish someone had told me before I started.
If you’ve ever thought about launching a podcast (or blog, YouTube channel, newsletter…whatever your version of showing up is), this one’s for you. I’m talking through the lessons, the systems that saved me, and how messy action is the only way forward.
And YES, I’m getting vulnerable and a little bit in my feels because this podcast has been a game changer for me AND my business.
If you’ve been here since episode 1 or you’re brand new, THANK YOU. I’m so grateful you're along for this ride.
Episode Highlights:
- Why I launched a podcast and the accountability that made it possible
- The marketing muscle of consistency—and why it's not just a mindset
- The importance of not letting perfect be the enemy of good
- How batching, planning, and Airtable keep this show running and the tools I use to make it easy
- The wild (and amazing) growth I’ve seen on my website and email list since launching
- What I'd do differently (spoiler: not much—because messy action wins)
Go ahead and subscribe to this podcast so you don’t miss a single episode. If this episode resonated with you, I’d love if you left a review, shared it with a friend, or sent me a DM with your favorite takeaway. Here’s to year 2 of Stop the Scroll—and doing it messy.
