Hey guys, it's summertime. It's the perfect time to create your own podcast. Spotify has

a platform that lets you make one really easily, and you can distribute it everywhere and

even earn money all in one place for free. It's called Spotify for podcasters, and here's

how it works. Spotify for podcasters lets you record and edit podcasts right from your

phone or computer, and so no matter what your setup is like, you can start creating today,

and then Spotify will distribute your podcast everywhere that podcasts are available.

And best of all, it's free with no catch. So if you've got a message to get out and

some time to begin, I highly recommend you give it a try. Download the Spotify for podcasters

app or go to Spotify.com forward slash podcasters to get started.

with anxiety and fear. And I noticed that I'm not alone. And it took me a long time to

be able to be honest about the things that I was afraid of. And so as you're listening

to me, talk through this series. I want you to feel like you're talking to a woman who's

actually experienced this at a pretty significant level and understands what real fear feels

like and what anxiety and what panic attacks feel like. And I think as women, we are particularly

prone to this and mothers especially because there we feel the responsibility not only for
