Timestamps:
[00:05] - Intro
[00:44] - We’ll start this episode with the not-so-great stuff, but even that’s not “bad” stuff.
[01:08] - The first thing I learned is that I need to do better on preparation. I had vastly underestimated or not taken into account the extra time it would take to do the marketing, networking, and other peripheral tasks around the show.
[02:11] - The second lesson from the year is that I can’t maintain the previous show schedule and do other projects I feel called to do. So I will be moving to a biweekly schedule, which will help me maintain the quality of the show while still moving forward with other goals.
[02:58] - For the first two things I learned, consider Psalm 90:12, which reminds us to be mindful of our time and use it to do good for God. Remember that even Jesus took time to rest and that it is OK to slow down.
[04:49] - The third thing I learned this year is to be more flexible. I had many times when producing the show was messy, but it helped me learn to not be so perfectionistic all the time. You can find peace even when there isn’t a whole lot of unpredictability.
[06:11] - The final lesson from the 52 shows I’ve done is that it can feel good to get lost in the process of learning. I was able to look back and see the growth that had happened and the new skills I have. Don’t be afraid to give something new a try!
[07:10] - The biggest goal I have for the show moving forward is to make connecting with people the priority. I want to discuss and promote the content for the show offline and find more self-sustaining ways to market.
