Please Clap: Self-Care and Advocacy

Making some changes so I don't end up burning out

Ok - here’s the podcast plan for the rest of summer into autumn! Of course, all is subject to change because LC leads the process and nothing is ever set in stone, but! Monday the 22nd’s episode features

Amy - The Tonic

on Substack. On the 29th, you’ll hear from Sophie, the founder and Creative Director of Berlin Buyer’s Club. On 8/5, I’ll be putting out a season 1 wrap-up because Mama needs a break and I won’t be recording again until the kids survive the first week of school. I’ll be back with season 2’s debut on 8/26 and will kick things off with amazing folks from Covid Safe Colorado!

So let’s see how it goes! I have dates set up for recording with @kd_kinetic later in August and Joe of

Lesa Schultz

who was on episode 1, @bloom19official and I have a lot of childhood topics to cover, and there are more folks I’m still coordinating with. I have really enjoyed this, have genuinely learned something new from every human I’ve had the honor of meeting, and I sincerely appreciate your support and brain spoons being used to listen.

In the meantime, if you haven’t listened to this week’s episode featuring Dr. Laurie Nadel, let me introduce you to her: https://www.laurienadel.com/journalism.html
