True Crime, Authors & Extraordinary People

Immerse yourself in our reflective journey as we wrap up season one, an incredible adventure enriched with inspirational stories and insights. We promise that you'll gain a fresh perspective on both podcasting and personal growth as we share our experiences, challenges, and lessons learned. We express our deepest gratitude to everyone who's contributed to this memorable season, including our amazing guests, listeners, and the supportive family and co-workers behind the scenes. Let's join hands and celebrate the power of storytelling, as we've been privileged to converse with 30 authors and 12 extraordinary individuals, all of whom have left indelible marks on our hearts and minds.
Our show has evolved significantly over the course of the first season, and we're eager to share our rebranding journey with you. You'll learn about the complexities of podcast monetization, the effort that goes into maintaining a high rating, and the importance of setting boundaries with guests. We also take you behind the scenes of our logo revamp. Our experiences and insights may indeed offer valuable lessons for those embarking on a similar journey.
As we close this season, we also take a moment to talk about professionalism in podcasting, learning from a recent guest interaction that took a controversial turn. Respect and mindful communication are key on both sides of the mic, and our conversation serves as a reminder of the importance of these values. We're excited about the future, and as we announce our new show title, we promise to continue delivering content that meets and exceeds your expectations. Join us as we express our appreciation for this incredible journey and set the stage for an even more exciting second season.
