On my way to Podfest Multimedia Expo in Orlando! Who's coming? I'd love to connect!

Sharing my 🎙Podcasting Journey that led me to where I am today!

2007 - I discovered podcasting through Ira Glass’s This American Life (TAL), introduced by my husband Larry. I instantly fell in love with the ability to listen to episodes on demand during long drives.

2018 - I had the opportunity to meet Jim Cirillo, host of the JimJim’s Reinvention Revolution podcast, in a co-working space. It was my first time meeting a podcaster, and I was super excited about it!

2019 - I collaborated with Mitchell Zlotnik, owner of Audimute, to design Todd Cochrane's podcast studio. Todd, the CEO of Blubbry Podcasting and a highly respected figure in the industry, was inducted into the Podcast Hall of Fame in 2015.

2020 - Jim introduced me to Josh Elledge who played a pivotal role in helping me launch the Architect My Life Podcast. Despite my hesitation because I was a bit shy, I did it anyway. My podcast aimed to amplify the voices of influential women in Architecture.

2022 - I had the honor of being a panelist on ‘How to Start your Podcast' moderated by David Allen Moss. Sharing the stage with amazing fellow podcasters Jing Lauengco of ‘The Next Thing with Jing’ podcast and Lisa- host of ‘CLE Foodcast’ Podcast.

2023 - I had the pleasure of meeting Chris Krimitsos during his Cleveland PodTour, celebrating the 10th-year anniversary of Podfest Multimedia Expo Expo. It was an incredible opportunity to connect with fellow podcast enthusiasts and creators. I also had the chance to meet David Jackson of School Of Podcasting.

And now…

2024, I’m heading to Podcast Expo in Orlando! I meet amazing people and learn A LOT about everything . I’m beyond thrilled to be part of this wonderful podcasting community. Looking forward to connecting with all of you in Florida!

Today is my last official day of work for 2023. Many of us will be sharing and recapping our accomplishments for the year, which I am excited to read. I would like to share one of my favorite quotes that had a profound impact on me this year!

Viktor Frankl on success:
"Don't aim for success — the more you aim for it and make it a target, the more you're going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself."
-From Man’s Search For Meaning

May you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Enjoy time with Family. Relax. Reflect. Re-energize.

See you in 2024 !
