Goodbye Podcast

Thank you for spending time listening to my podcast. I sincerely hope that you have gained something positive from the experience. With everything going on in the world and in life, I have come to the conclusion that it is time for me to step away from this podcast. It may be a break, but it could be forever. These are truly difficult times - take care of yourself the best you can.
