Episode One: Why Now?

from Middle-Aged Woman · host Aqleema

I’ve been thinking about this podcast for over five years… and I’m finally hitting the record button at 49.In this first episode, I talk about what took me so long, how I turned what should have been a simple idea into something overwhelming, imposter syndrome, and why talking about doing something can feel easier than actually doing it.Find out what shifted everything for me and the realization that I didn’t want to wake up a year from now still saying, “I’m going to start.”I don’t fully know what this podcast is yet.But I do know it's no longer just living in my head.
