All right, for those of you tuning in today, thank you. I'm so happy that you're here. I wanted to get on the mic today and with a message of encouragement that if you like listening to podcasts and you are interested in starting your own podcast, do it. Podcasting has been one of the most amazing things that I've done. And I had no clue what I was doing when I started. I literally read a blog and went down a rabbit hole watching YouTube videos.
On exactly how to produce and create a show, a podcast. And so if you're sitting here listening to this and you're like, man, it's something I really want to do, but you're like, I don't really know how to do it, don't worry. I did not either. I this complete show has been completely self-taught. I do not outsource any of it at this time. And so what that means is I am the one.
In the interviews, doing the interviews. I'm the one doing the editing. I'm the one doing the music and the layering and all the above. And guys, I had literally no clue what I was doing, no skills in this department. I was a professional interviewer because I was a recruiter, a headhunter, and a past life. So I did know how to interview. But actually, what really caught on and what you guys have been really loving is the solo episode. So thank you for being kind and patient with me through those.
Getting on the mic actually was super uncomfortable. I was used to interviewing people for a living. I did that for 15 years, but getting on the mic and pressing record and just talking out loud was really scary to me. So if you see some of these episodes that are on here and they're just a couple minutes long, it's just because I'm just easing into it. I'm getting used to it. So if there's anything that you'd like me to talk about, feel free to send me a DM on social media. I'd be happy to connect with you. I love to hear from you.
I this podcast has connected me to the most amazing women that I would have never met otherwise, never been connected with. And so I'm super grateful for that. And I'm super grateful for each of you that tune in each week. I appreciate you. I love you. I'm so glad that you're here. And thank you.
