When I hit record on the very first episode of The Six Figure Brand® Podcast back in February of 2025, I was craving a creative outlet.

I wanted a space where I could share my thoughts on branding, tell stories from behind the scenes of my business, and have honest conversations about entrepreneurship that didn't fit neatly into an Instagram caption or a sixty-second reel. What I didn't realize was just how much this podcast would give back to me in return.

Over the last eighty-eight episodes, we've talked about branding, marketing, confidence, creativity, motherhood, client experiences, and what it really looks like to build a business intentionally. I've had conversations with incredible guests, challenged my own beliefs, found my voice, and created relationships that never would have existed otherwise.

And today, I'm sharing a bittersweet update: after a year and a half of weekly episodes, I'm pressing pause on The Six Figure Brand® Podcast.

In this episode, I'm reflecting on everything this show has meant to me, why I'm choosing to step back even though I still love podcasting, and what's next for both the podcast and my business.

👉 In This Episode, You'll Learn:

• Why I started The Six Figure Brand® Podcast in the first place
• How podcasting changed my perspective on content creation
• The unexpected ways this show helped me find my voice and strengthen my brand philosophy
• Why podcasting has been one of the best business decisions I've ever made
• What goes into producing a weekly podcast behind the scenes

• Why loving something doesn't automatically mean it's the right fit for every season
• The importance of building your business intentionally and honoring different seasons of life
• What I'm hoping to explore during this break
• What's next for The Six Figure Brand® Podcast

🎧 Tune in for a candid conversation about creativity, content, seasons of business, and why sometimes the most strategic decision you can make is giving yourself permission to pause, even when you still love what you're doing.
