What grows your business might not grow you. In today’s episode, I share the behind-the-scenes choices I’ve made to stay aligned even when it meant saying no to big names or popular strategies. If you’ve ever felt torn between what works and what feels right, this is your reminder that you don’t have to choose one or the other. You can grow your podcast in a way that actually feels good.
