    099. A Short Break & A Moment of Gratitude: 2025 Recap & Hopes for 2026
    Dec 15 2025

    We've made it to the final episode of the year and I feel so much gratitude for the success of this podcast this year and life personally. I used this episode to talk a little bit about my weekend and then shared what I'm thankful for this year. Lastly I talk about my hopes for 2026 - I'm looking forward to slowing all the way down and getting to know myself deeper as a woman who's transitioning into motherhood. I also talk about some career changes I'm working on and how that life will look a lot different a year from now. I hope you listen to the end.

    Happy New Year in advance! There will be no January 1st. episode. See you back on the 15th!

    097. Review of Hulu's All's Fair, & Dissecting the 10-Year Overnight Success
    Nov 15 2025

    On this episode of The Letters & Layers, Podcast, I share my review of Hulu's new show All's Fair, and talk about the concept of the 10-year overnight success. I share some examples and honorable mentions that are meant to remind us that often the people we see in the spotlight have worked years to get to where they are and if you believe in what your doing, know that time is on your side. I hope you listen to the end.
