Summary

for now.

It's such a weird feeling to type this out because the confidantes have been a part of my life every week for the last 6 (!!!!!!!!) years!!! For now, Confidently Insecure is going on hiatus...the truth is that podcasting is REALLY hard as an independent podcaster. Most of the market is traditional celebs and huge companies producing amazing work and series and it's hard to keep up! The great podcast wave of 2021/2022 made it feel like EVERYONE you knew had a podcast and I am lucky to say that out of the 4.5 MILLION podcasts, I have been lucky enough to be in the .5% of the top listened to podcasts in the world. Crazy. I'll never forget seeing our pod on the top charts all the way back in 2019 when I first launched con pod. We've had the most INCREDIBLE guests including scientists, sex workers, activists, comedians, and friends. I've felt SO LUCKY to be the one holding that space for your ears every week and feel genuinely connected to each of you, confidantes. I read all the comments...I read all the messages...I feel so so so lucky to have had you all as an audience for the last 6 years. I am so grateful. I am so lucky. I feel so loved.

Stay tuned on this channel for more videos that aren't podcasts soon....and if you're not already following on IG & TT get more content there!!!!

0:00.0	Welcome to another episode of Confidently Insecure the podcast, where we are absolutely sure we don't know everything.
0:11.2	I am your host, Kelty Deere, and guys, turns out I've learned everything.
0:16.0	I've figured it all out.
0:17.4	We've asked all the questions.
0:20.5	This is going to be a bit of a sad one. This is going to be a
0:24.6	bit of a hard one for me to do because as you can see by the title of this episode after six
0:33.6	years, six years, 300 episodes, live shows, a spawn from a podcast at BuzzFeed, from meetups and merch and giveaways and just like the most fun I've had on the internet, confidently and secure the
0:57.9	podcast is coming to an end this year. That's right. I have a hard time even saying it. I have a
1:08.0	hard time even being like, it's over. Because originally I just was like telling myself, I'm going to put it on a pause. I'm going to put it on a hiatus. But I feel like that's so misleading because it's, it's like going on a break in a relationship. Like if I had a plan to be like, okay, I'm going out of town for this amount of time because I'm doing this in my life or this project is taking up my time and I'll be back then. But I feel like I'd be like a dad going out for some
1:34.0	milk and never returning if I did that to you guys because the truth is maybe I'll miss it so much
1:39.9	and I'll need to come back next month or by the summer or hell, I don't know, next year.
1:45.0	But because in my mind, I don't have a return by date.
1:50.9	I don't want to, I'm not a cop tease.
1:53.4	Okay, I'm not here to lead y'all on.
1:55.4	I'm not here to make promises I can't keep.
1:58.1	I'm not Trump, okay?
1:59.6	I want nothing but the best for the
2:02.0	coffee dollars, which is why I'm saying for now, the podcast has come to an end. And again,
2:11.4	it feels weird even saying that. I want to be like, no, it's not. No, it's not. But maybe,
2:16.1	who knows? Maybe I'll even start like a once a month club. Or maybe I'll take this on over to Patreon Town. Like if people care enough to, you know, stay up to date. But here's the truth. I think you guys have probably been able to feel it too in the episodes of just me like struggling a little bit to
2:35.7	I mean six years is crazy to be doing this since 2019 and two years before that doing adult shit at
2:43.5	BuzzFeed I feel like I've talked so much about so many things and you know turned 35 this year. And while I feel like that is a new
