- It Could’ve Been an Email - November 13, 2026
I was trying to finish up work before my kid’s performance, and then I got a little notification. Apparently another podcast had been doing a little 💩-talking about mine. My brain kept replaying it, and somewhere in that loop I started thinking about the pressure to be on camera and why I feel…
- I Am Here to Be Award Nominated! - November 12, 2026
I woke up to a “Congratulations!” on LinkedIn and had to ask what for. Turns out In & Around Podcasting is up for Best Podcasting Podcast at the Ear Worthy Awards. Which, of course, sent me right down the rabbit hole of independent podcasts I wanna listen to.Also, My Kaigi is Saturday, November…
- It Captured MY Zeitgeist - November 11, 2026
Everybody was talking about Lanterns. At least everybody in my feed was. I was obsessed, and the back-and-forth about a second season got me thinking about what the things we watched, read, and listened to this year can tell us about ourselves. What’s one piece of media that did something for you…
- A Little Tea on the Way to the Grocery Store - November 10, 2026
Come with me to the grocery store while I test a little lav mic and tell you why talking gossip with Rob Walch is my favorite thing. He is so not a gossip girly. And somehow we end up talking about one of the reasons I started this whole audio experiment: even when you follow somebody, you don’t…
- Live Slow, Die Cozy - November 09, 2026
“Live slow, die cozy.” I heard that on a stationery podcast and immediately thought, yes. I used to rush from my desk to the kitchen like somebody was chasing me. Now I’m thinking about what it feels like to slow down, and how the things we keep around us can help.If you wanna spend some time with…

- Red Cups and Coffee With My Dad - November 07, 2026
The little holiday red cups are back, and all of a sudden I’m thinking about getting coffee with my dad. I’m sitting in a grocery store parking lot in the North Carolina mountains, in an out-of-control amount of sunshine, and thinking about the little things I wish I’d kept.A quick invitation…
- Permission to Do It Your Way - November 06, 2026
I woke up around 2:30 a.m. with that lovely feeling of panic—and I actually went back to sleep. That’s progress, my friends. Today I’m talking about feeling like I haven’t done enough, finding a mission that feels like me, and a voicemail from Jennifer Navarrete about falling in love with…
