As we draw the curtain on the Poddy Report, it feels a little like standing on the edge of a cliff - there's fear, exhilaration, and a strange sense of freedom. It's been a journey recording these final episodes, wrestling with emotions yet feeling the strange relief of letting go.
It's tough, like parting with an old friend, but the truth is, letting go has created room for new, exciting opportunities - opportunities that seemed like distant dreams just a few months back. And I can't wait to share them with you.
So, what's next? As I step into the future, I invite you to join me behind the scenes as I begin to share more of my journey via Instagram and my newsletter. Expect riveting posts, engaging stories, and a peek into the exciting deals I've been working on. Plus, there are a few local conferences in the Houston area that I'll be attending. If you're in the area, do drop by. It would be wonderful to connect with you.
As we say goodbye to the Poddy Report, I am filled with gratitude for the experiences, the lessons, and the journey. So, remember - keep it fresh, keep it fun, and keep going. Let's jump into the next chapter of our journey together.
Speaker 1:
Welcome back to another episode of the Putty Report. So you have no idea how hard it is to batch these episodes and not get emotional every single one because I'm like nope, you got to keep it together, this isn't the last one. You have to record for five minutes and then you got to start the next one. So it's been a little hard, but knowing that these are the last two episodes, it makes it a little bit easier to just kind of let more of the emotion come in, because this is hard, this is really freaking hard. Like I thought it was going to be easy. I actually kind of forgot that I needed to record these today, not because I was like I've already moved on and I needed to like, oh, you know, that's it just honestly slipped my mind because I have been doing some really big things and like letting go of this podcast is making room to do those big things and I was so focused on doing that.
Speaker 1:
So just to give you some behind the scenes, which is what this podcast is all about is I'm working with sponsorship opportunities. I'm working with brands on deals that are. If you would have told me six months ago that I was getting these deals and working with these companies, I would have said what are you even talking about? No company is going to pay me thousands of dollars to, you know, create content for them. They are, and it's incredible. But it's also given me even more of a an eye opening moment that this podcast like letting it go is the right next move, because I wouldn't have the capacity like right now, like I'm recording this and I'm like, oh my gosh, like I am spending energy on this and not getting it back in the same way that fulfills me with these other ventures that I'm working on. So I'm working on some really big things and you'll have to be on my email list and connect with you on Instagram to hear more about them, and I think that that's probably what I'll end up doing is sharing more behind the scenes on Instagram of what's going on and just different things that are happening that I would probably typically share here, but you're going to just see it come out in other areas.
Speaker 1:
So, on my newsletter, if you see me in a conference, I actually have a few conferences coming up that are their local events. So if you're in the Houston area, reach out to me. I'll be on, you know, instagram, but I have two events coming up that I'm really excited about. So I'm excited about connecting with people in person, working with companies that I never would have dreamed of. These aren't even podcast companies, they're not in the creator space necessarily, and I have just freed myself up and expanded my network by saying yes to these opportunities, and I'm so grateful to have this opportunity to just share more of my time in these bigger strategic ways.
Speaker 1:
And this podcast has given me so much, and I have said this, I think, every episode this week, but I really am grateful. I'm grateful for the ability to have had this experience on this podcast and all the things that it's taught me and the incredible things that I will continue to take with me throughout the rest of my journey. And it's really hard, it is, it's really hard to say goodbye. So I'm going to go ahead and say goodbye for today, but tomorrow will be the last episode of the party report. So, as always, remember, keep it fresh, keep it fun and just keep going.
