Gratitude & Holiday Closure Announcement_ Solo Episode_English (Spanglish).

Dear amazing listeners, thank you for your unwavering support this year, 2025! Your presence has been a vital part of this thrilling journey.

I honour the quiet growth of 2025 with my podcast as a community project. Despite the obstacles, I have emerged more resilient and strong, embracing challenges as opportunities for growth and meeting them with grace and determination.

Today, I am deeply grateful for all the guests who have joined me since 2020! Five years on, some months brought more guests while others featured just one or two, but each encounter was filled with purpose, love, and alignment with my vision for meaningful connections in our community.

In 2025, I had wonderful interviews with artists, poets, and educators, exploring art, music, poetry, and creative living. I’m excited to announce that I’ll be back in February 2026 with fresh, inspiring episodes! I'm working on new styles and themes that I can’t wait to unveil. So, stay tuned, take good care of yourself, and savour every moment!

In the meantime, enjoy the wisdom of these remarkable guests and support my work by listening, sharing, liking, reviewing, or subscribing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favourite podcast platform.
