Celebrating 300 Episodes 🎉 and thanking you for making this happen.

Published 1 day ago • 2 min read

Today’s email is a celebration, because the Positively Living® Podcast just hit 300 episodes!!

That number is exciting on its own with only about 1.79% of podcasters reaching this point. It sounds impressive, but as I celebrate, I am remind of what this milestone really represents: years of showing up consistently, evolving in format while staying true to my purpose, and continuing to have real, compassionate conversations about productivity that honors life as it actually is.

To celebrate episode 300, I switched things up. My longtime podcast producer and dear friend, Alesia Galati, stepped in as guest host to interview me. We flipped the script and reflected on the journey of the podcast focusing on how it’s grown, how it’s changed, and why the heart of it has stayed the same.

As we celebrated such a huge number of episodes, we also had to acknowledge a simple reality: 300 episodes is a lot for listeners to navigate.

That’s why, over the years, I’ve been intentional about creating support around the podcast, from weekly emails to curated playlists and simple guidelines for how to listen without overwhelm.

This show was never meant to be something you keep up with. It’s meant to be something you can return to when you need support.

In this milestone episode, we talk about how to use the podcast in a way that actually serves your life, including:

  • why you don’t need to start at episode one
  • how to let your current season guide what you listen to
  • and how one episode can truly be enough

As part of the celebration, Alesia shares a few listener reviews, and asks me some fun and functional questions. We look ahead to where the podcast is headed next, and close with a fun behind-the-scenes segment where I share five things you may not know about me.

I have said before that celebrating is important, so I am doing that with you. But this episode and email are also serving as a a thank-you. Because this podcast exists because of you. Whether you’ve been here from the beginning, listen occasionally, or are just finding the show now, I am grateful for your support.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for celebrating this milestone with me.

With appreciation,

What's New at Positively Productive Systems...

One of my 2026 goals is to provide more accessible coaching and resources. In addition to many free resources, I am adding paid products to the collection to provide simple and effective DIY options. The latest is a mini-training. When overwhelm strikes and you need to reduce what you're doing but still be productive, it can often feel like planning is part of the overwhelm.

Reader What if productivity didn’t need to be something you push through or prove yourself with? After ten years of coaching, creating, caregiving, building a business, and having thousands of conversations with people trying to do life well, here’s what I know for sure: productivity works best when it’s personal, compassionate, and grounded in reality. If you want support that actually fits, consider these ten reminders: Productivity is personal, not universal. Fluctuating energy is normal....

Reader Have you ever tried a productivity tip that “works for everyone”…and felt absolutely deflated when it did not work for you? When you feel overwhelmed, it is tempting to look for a new solution: a new system, a new planner, a new routine, a new push of willpower. But if the way you are trying to be productive is not aligned with who you are, no amount of forcing it will feel sustainable. That is why self-awareness is still my number one productivity tool, and why I lean so heavily on...

Reader We hear about self-care all the time… but usually in the form of spa days, bubble baths, or vacations you have to “earn.” And while those are lovely, they’re not the kind of self-care that keeps you grounded and supported in everyday life. Here’s the truth I wish more people understood and believed: Self-care isn’t indulgence. It’s maintenance for your mind, body, and energy. One of the simplest ways to practice restorative self-care is by creating something I call a Joy List, a...
