S7E15 - Unveiling 2023: Triumphs, Trials and Tributes to Voices of the Podcasting Community (Season Finale)!!

As the sun sets on a year fraught with personal storms, I take a moment to share the valleys and peaks of my own life's narrative. Unmasking the struggle with mental health, the devastation of loss, and the phoenix-like rise from the ashes of adversity, I lay bare my journey towards healing and resilience. It's a candid confession of the moments that broke and rebuilt me, a story of self-discovery, and the power of unwavering support from those who stood steadfast by my side.

From the dark corners of mental health struggles to the warmth of community support that held me steady. I open the door to my life, recounting the pain of loss, the climb towards self-forgiveness, and the laser focus on brighter days ahead. This conversation is as raw as it gets with no stone left un-turned in the quest for a more authentic self.

This year's cavalcade of guests has been nothing short of transformative. The wisdom of the entire season-7's line-up & Nick's heartwarming chapter on fatherhood's brilliance have not only graced our airwaves but also gifted you listeners with nuggets of inspiration to apply in your own creative endeavors. Their stories, rich with lessons, are the unseen threads that weave through our discussion, providing a backdrop of encouragement and insight as their stories are a testament to the magic that happens when passionate individuals come together.

As I pivot to explore new creative horizons, I leave you with a teaser of Atlanta's podcasting renaissance and the promise of continued growth within this vibrant community. While I may be stepping back to focus on finalizing my book and launching a new website, the connections we've made and the bonds we've built are a launchpad for the future.

As I venture into the new year, my heart is set on forging deeper connections through the power of voice and presence. Picture this: the Talks with P experience, now amplified with the immediacy of live streaming, allowing our conversation to flow free, unedited, and in real time. Imagine holding my soon-to-be-released book, a labor of love, and listening as I guest on other shows, polishing my craft to serve you better. These are but glimpses into the ambitions I carry forward, an open invitation
