Welcome to the podcast!
While I’m catching up with existing content, here’s a separate feed of posts that have podcast episodes associated with them. There will be an embedded Spotify link at the top of each post where you can listen to the episode, or you can visit Anchor to find ways to access the podcast on your favorite platform.
Note: If the embedded Spotify link is only offering the preview, try refreshing the page. It should pull up the full episode without needing to leave the site 🙂
Thanks for your patience while I catch up, and thank you for listening!
