Episode 50 - I almost Quit At Episode 10, Lessons From Behind The Scenes | Business Therapy™

from Creative Business Mindset™ · host Joké Durojaiye

In today’s episode, we’re marking something really special… 50 episodes, listeners in 50 countries, and a journey that almost didn’t make it past episode ten.This one is a bit more personal. It’s a reflection on what it’s taken to keep showing up, especially in the seasons where the results weren’t obvious yet.We talk about that in-between space… where you’re doing the work, staying consistent, but not seeing immediate proof that it’s working. The kind of season that can make you question things, even when something meaningful is quietly taking shape.There’s also an honest look at what building something like this can involve. The time, the energy, and the behind-the-scenes moments that don’t always get seen.Here’s what we covered✅ What 50 episodes and 50 countries can represent beyond the numbers✅ The idea of unseen growth and why it can feel confusing✅ The bamboo tree analogy and slow, quiet progress✅ What it can feel like to keep creating without immediate feedback✅ The difference between evolving and feeling like you’re getting it wrong✅ Some of the quieter challenges that come with building in public✅ The real cost behind consistency✅ A way to think about whether you’re still developing or ready to step away✅ A glimpse into what’s coming nextWe also touch on how things can evolve over time. What started in one space gradually expanded into something broader, not as a correction, but as a natural deepening of the message.If you’ve been in a season where things feel quiet or unclear, this might give you something to sit with.This episode is for the creative who is still showing up… even when it’s not fully clear where it’s leading yet.💼 Explore Business Therapy™If you’d like support while you build, this could be a space to explore.
