I’ve been to a lot of conferences over the years, but there’s one I always make sure to attend, and this year, I’m excited to be speaking there again. It’s called Momentum Weekend Workshop, hosted by Lou Mongello. And trust me, it’s not your typical sit-and-soak-it-in kind of event. Momentum is hands-on. You don’t just take notes.

Wow, what a whirlwind Podfest was! Between all the amazing sessions, reconnecting with friends, and even squeezing in a day at Hollywood Studios with the Ecamm crew, I’ll admit… I’m still recovering – mentally and physically. I wanted to take a moment to thank you for subscribing to my newsletter. You’ve probably seen a few emails from me since the event, and I hope they’ve been helpful. If you’re like me, though, Podfest might have felt like drinking from a firehose – so much incredible...
