Taking a break is the hardest decision
Sep 12, 2024Tap to summarizeOK folks, this was a hard decisions to make, but Productivity Alchemy is going on Hiatus until early 2025. It turns out buying a house and moving to another state, maintaining a day job, traveling for public appearances, managing a department at a gigantic event, AND making a podcast every other week is a lot. Given all of that, I have made the hard decision to pause this podcast until February 2025. By then we will be done with the move, I will be finished with MAGFest, and we be done with the travel schedule for 2024. I love you all, and appreciate your support, and we will be back in 2025!
