According to my substack, my last podcast was released on June 30th, 2025. That was almost 6 months ago, and corresponds almost exactly with when life got busy and stressful with the renovation of my house.

I’d always planned to come back to podcasting, I love a good yackety-yack and apparently have no end of thoughts and opinions to share with you all. In the meantime, I’ve learned some light editing skills, so hopefully in this season (I’m calling it a season to make it sound like the 6 month hiatus was due to something glamorous and official, like a writers’ strike, or actor diary conflicts, rather than overwhelm and lack of mental bandwidth) you’ll hear an upturn in quality. Except apparently in this episode, because I realised too late you can’t edit away wind noise. I’ll be buying a microphone for future episodes I think.
In this episode I’m chatting about my plans for the newsletter and podcast for the next few months. I’m considering turning on paid subscriptions when I reach 1000 subscribers, which incredibly isn’t that far away now. For paid subscribers, I’m thinking of offering an additional weekly newsletter and a monthly podcast episode. I’ve been banking additional content, as a way to mitigate future periods of overwhelm. I feel strongly that I want paid subscribers to feel they get good value for money and my main concern would be that life gets busy and stressful, and the quality or frequency of my content drops off. Having a source of pre-written newsletter material to draw from, would give me peace of mind to know I could keep up with the frequency without too much stress.
