My goodness, 150 episodes of Bella In Your Business! That is days worth of me talking in your ears.
When I started my podcast, my friend Shannon Hernandez had a podcast class, and me being the one to follow the trends I wanted to jump on it but I had no idea what I was doing. Sometimes the audio sounded like I was in a tin can and other times it sounded great, but I kept going. I wasn't always consistent starting out, so I decided at the end of 2016 that every Thursday I was going to pump out a podcast and now we've made it to 150 episodes!
Biggest Takeaway You Don’t Want To Miss
Just like anything in life you've got to keep chipping away little by little, that is what gets you places. If you're not where you want to be today that's okay! If you do something little every single day to get closer to your goal you will make progress.

Welcome to episode 150 of Bella in Your Business. My goodness, you guys, 150 episodes — that is like days’ worth of me talking in your ear. I remember when I started this podcast. My friend Shannon Hernandez, who actually is a local DJ here in Arizona at 98 KUPD, had this podcast class. I saw and I heard that podcasts were going to be a really big thing. And me, being the one that likes to follow the data and trends and find as many ways into you guys as possible — with videos and blogs and now podcasts — I wanted to jump on it. But admittedly, I had no idea what I was doing.
I remember I probably had four or five different microphones. Sometimes I sounded like I was in a tin can, sometimes the audio sounded great, and for a while, I didn’t realize it, but I was using my earbuds and my hair kept brushing across the microphone. So there was this little staticky sound that came through. But I kept going. Little by little by little by little. I honestly started this podcast about four years ago, and for the first two years, I was not consistent at all. I didn’t get consistent about putting out an episode until almost the end of 2016.
That’s when I really went full-blown. It was after I sold my pet sitting company that I’d had since 2002 — I had it for 14 years. I decided that every Thursday I was going to pump out a podcast. I think we’ve only missed one or two times, and honestly, that was because Thanksgiving or Christmas fell on those days. But you guys, just like anything in life, you’ve got to just keep chipping away.
I just heard my good friend Nick Trevillian say something the other day. He went through a period where, when he turned 30, all of a sudden he lost complete feeling in all of his legs. They told him that he wasn’t going to walk — and he does. He actually runs now. But he got really overweight, really depressed, and the way he got out of that was just running to the end of the street and back, then running around the block, then running a little bit more. And honestly, it’s something I aspire to because, as this podcast has shown you, you just chip away little by little by little.
It’s that consistency that I talked about in episode 50 and ep...
