Less Than 1 Month Before Launch!
Every other Saturday is my primary work day on the podcast. I probably total around 10 hours per week now. It is enough to keep us on schedule. Lynda.com has been very helpful. With my 1 month free subscription, I am also learning about WordPress, which will expand on the podcast content. I do have...

The Fruits of Labor
Over 5 months ago, Eric and I took a walk down a gravel road past my church. We talked of life, God, psych hospitals, Faithful Friends, smoothies. Somewhere between the dust of our steps and the breeze around us, the Spirit stirred us and an idea was conceived. A podcast. 5 months later. Last night....
Out of the Silence, Like Prayers

Lynda, I Want You

StoryCorps
My sister Suzanne came over this morning to do a recording of a StoryCorps interview. The focus was on discussing my mental health journey.

Technical Difficulties
We are halfway between the day we committed to starting Revealing Voices and our launch date of March 1. Some days it feels overwhelming, other days it feels like we’re almost there. In reality, we are making slow but steady progress. On “The Show Runner” podcast, there are over 100 episodes that are essentially dedicated...
