Is this thing on?

Welcome to this impromptu episode that I just decided to sit down and record right now for my podcast, Digital Diary, that y'all haven't heard from in a while.

And I am sorry for that.

I did post on the Instagram for the podcast, Digital Diary Pod, that I would be taking a hiatus. I did not specify how long

the hiatus would be because I myself didn't know and still don't know. But I wanted to come on

and give you an update just where I've been at because this podcast is not going anywhere.

I have just taken a step back because I felt that I've been at because this podcast is not going anywhere. I have just taken a step back because I felt

that I wasn't putting my full effort into it and it deserves that. And I've just been feeling

in a rut in so many areas of my life in the last couple months could chalk it up to this season and it

being winter and now we're coming out of that and I'm feeling a little bit more inspiration

in general now but I don't know I haven't been feeling inspired by anything and I'm having a bit

of a crisis about it and I have been because my job requires me to be creative

and quickly.

So when I first of all feel like I don't have anything to say, which was one of the issues

that I ran into here, it's like, what do I do?

Second, when I have things I do want to say, but I feel like I can't say

them, and I'm going to try not to be vague here. I don't know if I'll end up actually divulging these

things, because I've just been holding these things so close to my chest for years about my real

thoughts on stuff. I don't know.

Sometimes I feel like people say that if you do content creation as a full-time job

or you're in this type of space and you're not allowed to have negative feelings.

Our job is so flexible and it is an absolute blessing of a job.
