The 1 Choice to Make Before the New Year Starts

from Podcasting Morning Chat | Real Podcasters, Real Podcasting Advice · host Marc Ronick | Podcasting Coach and Consultant

As 2025 winds down, we pause to reflect on the choices shaping where we’re headed next in our podcasting journeys and beyond. We explore the impact of saying yes and no as a community, through honest stories about doubt, trust, rest, creativity, and change.We share what it looks like to release patterns that no longer fit, and how small, intentional choices can create space for clarity. This conversation isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about noticing where we are, listening to each other, and giving ourselves permission to move forward with intention. If you’re standing at the edge of a new year feeling unsure, you’re not alone. Join us and take a moment to breathe, reflect, and remember that clarity often begins together.Episode Highlights:[02:23] Upcoming Podcast Evaluations and Reviews  [10:23] Setting Intentions for 2026  [13:57] Community Shares: Saying No and Yes in 2026  [26:17] Embracing Trust and Overcoming Doubt  [28:10] Collaboration and Abundance  [30:17] Saying Yes to Business Risks and Personal Growth  [31:38] Avoiding Chaos and Embracing Community  [34:02] Helping Others and Finding Fulfillment  [41:49] Wins and Reflections from the Week  Links & Resources: Join The Empowered Podcasting Facebook Group:www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredpodcasting⁠Empowered Podcasting Conference: www.eventbrite.com/e/empowered-podcasting-conference-tickets-1976757134803Upcoming Podcast For Evaluation: https://open.spotify.com/episode/44Mq04supW81rcuQeAVCB8?si=I-vp9camTrK0bvw1ZX6g6gTo Have Your Podcast Considered For Evaluation, Please Complete This Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc8-Xv6O6lrNPcPJwj3N0Z5Osdl-5kHGz_PiAU45URethinking Podcasting With Matthew Bliss: https://rethinkingpodcasting.comRemember to rate, follow, share, and review our podcast.
