All right, y', all, let's talk about what's been going on.
Dixie Delator (2:03)
I want to apologize to you for starting a podcast and conking out on it. So here's what happened. I had a family member die.
Co-host/Listener (2:16)
And you know how death kind of.
Dixie Delator (2:19)
Makes you say, what's the point? What's the point in anything? Is what I'm doing making any difference in the world.
Co-host/Listener (2:29)
And I kind of fell into this pit of anxiety and depression and could barely get out of bed for a long time. And, you know, one of the things that will help you believe that what you're doing is important is, you know, we got in the top 10 best sex podcasts from Esquire magazine, and that felt really good. And we got in the top 10 for Uproxx, and that felt great. And somehow I'm not even sure how this happened. I was on tour and somebody recently contacted me and told me that we had gotten number one best sex podcast from Marie Claire magazine. And it happened six months ago, and somehow I never knew. And all those things make you start pulling yourself out of your hole and going, well, maybe I'm not that bad at this. Maybe I can do this. And the thing that's making the most difference, really, is the testimonials and the reviews you guys are giving me on itunes. Because knowing that this is important really, really makes a difference. Makes a difference to me. I don't know about the world. It really really affects me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm. And the emails you guys have been sending me telling me that, not berating me for stopping. Instead, you're going, it looks like you're taking a break. Just want to say, if it's over, thank you for the stories that you've brought into my life. And knowing that a place like Bodi exists, where people accept each other for who they are has changed my life. That was a direct comment somebody made, and that made me go, alright, if story. If storytelling is your life and your passion, then you need to pick yourself up and get back to this. Because podcasting means that y' all can have these stories all over the world. You know, you've been sending me your own stories from all over the world, and I get to know what's going on with you, and I love that. So I just wanted to say I apologize. I want to thank you for your patience and I'm gonna do my damnedest to keep it coming. My podcast producer and I have parted ways. I'm gonna start working with a new podcast producer and I'm gonna be back on track. And that's gonna happen. I promise that's gonna happen. One thing I would like to ask from you is I would like for you to let me know what you'd like more of or what you don't particularly love about the Body Storytelling podcast. Because I want to get better at this. I'm not convinced I'm great yet. And if you can tell me the parts that work for you or the parts that aren't that important or. Or if you have brilliant ideas, I'd love to have access to your brilliant ideas. I'm Dixie@bodystorytelling.com. send me an email and those reviews on itunes, those. Those really help. So thank you for everything.
