Description

In the final episode of Season One, we reflect on our journey so far with the Hear Me Roar podcast. We discuss the decision to record in seasons to give ourselves much-needed breaks and announce some significant changes—Sarah will be stepping back from the podcast due to the challenges of balancing motherhood and hosting. Britt will take over as the main host in Season Two. 



This episode delves into our personal stories, the complexities of life as a mother and podcaster, and the importance of taking breaks to prevent burnout. We emphasize the value of authenticity, transparency, and adapting to new seasons in life. We also express gratitude to all of our listeners and encourage continued support through reviews, listening to old episodes, sharing the pod with friends and participation in our private telegram community. God bless and we hope you all enjoy the holidays surrounded by those you love most. See you in the New Year!
