Taking Your Foot Off the Gas (Monthly Solo)

About this episode

Elise Loehnen discusses personal challenges and updates on her podcast as she prepares for a sabbatical.

As I’m heading into a series of initiations, I’m sharing a few challenges (opportunities!) that I’m sure many of you are familiar with: our struggle to prioritize ourselves, worrying over what will happen if I slow down, wanting to have faith in myself in the way that I have faith in other people and in the world. In this month’s solo episode, I’m also sharing a bit about my upcoming move from Substack to Beehiv, a sabbatical of sorts that I’m taking, and what’s coming up on the podcast. For the show notes, you can still head to my Substack. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
