PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! The kids are home, my teacher-husband is home, and we are all adjusting to a very different pace. Instead of letting the days become a blur of snacks, screens, and āwhat are we doing today?ā conversations, we each created a simple goal-oriented daily structure that includes brain work, body work, mental wellness, chores, downtime, and plenty of flexibility. So now I have a few new workout buddies, which is both fun and slightly humbling. Iām...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! I'm feeling behind...almost anxious, like there's SO much I should have already checked off the list. Can you tell? I did not send a newsletter last week, and Iāll be honest: I felt terrible about it. Did you miss me? Nah, you probably didn't even notice! Here's what I want you to absorb: Most people do not notice our minor inconsistencies nearly as much as we do. Your audience is not sitting there with a clipboard tracking whether you missed...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! Yesterday, I attended a podcasting ātown hallā led by Alex Sanfilippoāand letās just sayā¦ the conversation got real. There were platform leaders, long-time industry pros, editors, and service providers all in one (virtual) room talking about a growing issue: AI-generated podcast guest pitches. Not just a few here and thereādozens of companies scraping emails directly from podcast RSS feeds and selling access to inboxes for ~$215/month. Some...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! This week has been all about reviewing, refining, and planning forward. While I'm betting some of you have been buried in taxes, Iāve been meeting with clients to close out Q1 and map out Q2 and Q3ālooking at whatās working, whatās not, and what should be refined or where we need to pivot. And one theme keeps showing up: The podcast is becoming their BEST resource for potential clients. When they receive a fresh DM or meet someone with a...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! Itās been a full week over hereāequal parts movement, milestones, and a little bit of chaos (the good kind). Our big fluffy fur babies just turned 5, which meansā¦ vet visits. And apparently, both Bernard and Bianca are about 10 lbs overweight š
So now weāre a workout family. Theyāve been loving the daily trail time, and honestly, itās been great for me too. Iāve restarted my 5K training (againā¦ we donāt quit around here), and even on rest...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! Happy Good Friday to youāif you celebrate. Weāve got Easter weekend ahead, and in our house, that means one thing: the annual indoor egg hunt. Now that the kids are older, this is no casual āeggs scattered in plain sightā situation. These eggs are hidden in places that require actual effort to findā¦ and whatās inside them is just as entertaining. Some have money. Some have candy.And some containā¦ questionable treasures from the junk drawer,...

PODCAST SERVICES ACADEMY YOUTUBE EVENTS Hi Reader! Spring Break wrapped up over here, and Iām still adjusting back to a ānormalā scheduleā¦ if that even exists. Between last week and the kids being home again on Monday, I found myself thinkingāI donāt remember being out of school this much growing upā¦ do you? That said, it was a full and really good week. The kids stayed busy helping neighbors by caring for pets and homes while families were out of town, spent time with grandparents, explored...

In between those responsibilities, weāve been enjoying the warmer weather with some gardening, a few trips to the skate park, and an evening at the roller rink. Itās been a nice reminder that sometimes the best productivity...
