As I immerse myself in editing the recordings for season four of the podcast, I am enveloped by a wave of memories and emotions.
The conversations I've had with incredible guests, the stories they've shared, and the connections we've forged along the way resurface with each replay. It's a journey down the lanes of profound experiences and heartfelt dialogues that have shaped the essence of my podcast. Editing these recordings is not just about perfecting the quality; it's about honoring the magic of those moments.
My Winter/Spring 2025 recording calendar is rapidly filling up, a testament to the growth of the podcast over the last 18 months. Yet, amidst the excitement, a lingering sense of imposter syndrome gnaws at me. The fear of not being good enough, of being undeserving of the recognition the podcast has garnered, plays at the back of my mind. It's a common battle many creators face, a psychological hurdle that often goes hand in hand with pursuing your passions.
However, amidst all this, the podcast continues to be a platform to raise awareness and end the stigma and shame accompanying so much of the pregnancy and postpartum experience.
October marks Pregnancy/Infant/Child Loss awareness month, a time to reflect, remember, and support those who have experienced such profound loss. Through social media, we've been sharing content to shed light on this sensitive topic, offering solace, understanding, and empathy to those who have walked this challenging path.
As I prepare for an emotionally charged October, with the season 4 premier of QC on the horizon, I carry with me the resilience and spirit of my podcast. It's more than just a show; it's a platform for conversations that matter, for voices that need to be heard, and for stories that deserve to be shared.
Each recording, each edit, and each post is a step towards creating a community of support, understanding, and growth.
So, as I continue to edit, reflect, and prepare for the road ahead, I hold onto the essence of what my podcast represents – connection, empathy, and authenticity. Together, we can navigate the highs and lows, the joys and sorrows, and the triumphs and tribulations that this journey throws our way.
Thank you for being a part of this; your support fuels the heart and soul of this podcast.
The podcast journey continues, weaving together moments of nostalgia, growth, and poignant awareness. Join me as we venture into the unknown, armed with hope, courage, and unwavering determination. Here's to a meaningful season ahead.
