525: I ALMOST QUIT BEFORE I EVER LAUNCHED: 10 YEARS OF PODCASTING WITH MY RIDE-OR-DIE EDITOR

Hey, hey — welcome back to the show. Today is a very special episode, because we’re celebrating 10 years — yep, a full decade — of this podcast. And if you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to show up for something week after week for 525-ish weeks… this is the episode. I’m pulling back the curtain on how it started, what almost made me quit before I even launched, and the one person who’s been with me from episode one: my editor, Zach — aka the podcast man himself. This is the first real-time conversation we’ve ever had in ten years of working together, and it’s packed with reflection, behind-the-scenes chaos, unexpected confessions, and a whole lot of gratitude. So whether you’ve listened since the closet-recording days or you’re brand new here — thank you. Let’s celebrate what it means to stay the course, trust the journey, and keep the mic on anyway.
