✉️ You're Doing Better Than You Think

 
Hi Newsletter Subscribers,

This week, we're keeping things simple.
No frameworks, no systems, no new strategies to master.
 
Just this:
 
You're doing better than you think.
 
If you recorded anything this week…
If you sent a pitch, prepped a story, wrote an outline, updated a listing…
If you replied to someone, encouraged someone, or even just stayed 
connected to the work—
 
That counts.
 
Most of podcasting isn't loud or dramatic.
Most of it is invisible, backstage, unglamorous effort that no one sees until much later.
But we see it.
And it matters more than you realize.

 

 

💬 A few reminders for wherever you're at right now

If you're in a consistent groove:
Keep following your rhythm — don't overthink it. Small actions compound fast.
 
If you're in a dip:
That's normal.
Almost everyone's podcast calendar gets messy in October.
You haven't “fallen behind.” You're just between waves.
 
If you're restarting after a pause:
There is no penalty for coming back.
Not here. Not in this community.
Most of the people you look up to took breaks too — they just don't talk about them as much.
 
If you're planning your next move:
Take your time. You don't have to leap every week.
Thoughtful decisions age better than rushed ones.

🎧 A quick pulse-check (no pressure, no scoring)

You can ask yourself these quietly — no spreadsheet needed:
  • Did I do one thing this week that future-me will be glad for?
  • Did I stay connected to the work, even in a small way?
  • Did I move closer to a conversation or connection that matters to me?
  • Did I give myself a break when I needed one?
If even one of those is a “yes,” you're on track.

🌱 A small suggestion for the week ahead

Reach out to one person you genuinely appreciate — a host, guest, peer, listener, or collaborator — and tell them why.
 
That one action can revive your energy, open a door, or remind you why you're doing this in the first place.
 
No pressure. Just a gentle nudge.
