SPEAKER_00 (00:02):
Hey there, Genevieve here from Hidden Chapters.
I wanted to take a momentbetween seasons to share some
exciting news and give a littleupdate for the launch of Season
2 in about two weeks.
So here's the exciting news.
This week, we hit over athousand downloads! And we've

(00:23):
only been doing this for threeshort months.
Can you believe that?
I'm honestly feeling emotional,in shock, and almost in
disbelief.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Each download is someonechoosing to take a moment to
listen, reflect, and connect,and many of them are people I'll
probably never meet and places Iwill never get to visit.

(00:46):
What blows me away is seeinglisteners tuning in from Canada,
Ottawa, Fonthill, Mitchell, St.
Catharines, and Vancouver,Singapore, Trinidad and Tobago,
Nigeria, Thank you for lettingme be part of your story.

(01:29):
So while we're on a littleseason break, I wanted to give
you a peek behind the mic atwhat's coming in season two.
I've been busy, really busy,working every day and reading a
lot.
I'm interviewing some newlypublished authors, but we're not
just talking about their books.
I'll be going behind theirwritten chapters to uncover the

(01:51):
stories that didn't make it ontothe pages.
I'm also bringing a personal butvery special conversation about
my husband's newly publishedbook, Walking Away from the
Ledge.
We're going to be diving into amore honest conversation and the
hidden chapters behind hiswords.
Beyond that, we've got newguests from different cultural

(02:12):
backgrounds sharing their uniqueexperiences, challenges, and the
hidden parts of their lives thatwe don't often see.
And I'm bringing a few solo andmini episodes from me.
I'll be sharing more soon, but Iwanted you to be the first to
know what's coming next.
And I'm really excited aboutsome new ways for us to connect
in season two.

(02:33):
First, if you'd like to helpkeep Hidden Chapters going and
support the production of theshow, there's a link to buy me a
coffee in the show notes.
Totally optional, but it's asweet way to help me keep
creating these stories.
Second, I've set up Speakpipe,which lets you send me a
90-second voice message.
You can share your thoughts,your reflections, say hi, or

(02:56):
even share your own story.
And I might feature them, withyour permission, or respond on
the podcast.
I can't wait to hear from you.
And third, I just recentlyjoined Substack, where I'm
sharing more of my own hiddenchapters behind the mic and
reflections that didn't make itinto the episodes.
My hope is to continueconversations with you there

(03:18):
about each episode from thisseason or even last season that
resonated with you.
So again, I just want to saythank you.
You listening, sharing, andconnecting, it's what makes this
podcast really matter.
I can't wait to come back withseason two and continue
exploring those hidden chapterstogether.

A heartfelt shout out again toall of my recent listeners in
Canada.

Catharines in Vancouver,Singapore, Trinidad and Tobago,
