<p>Hi everyone, </p><p>I wanted to share a heartfelt review of 2025, divided into three chapters: </p><p><strong>Chapter: 1: My journey as a podcaster</strong></p><p>As a podcaster, I&#39;ve heard so many founder and leadership stories, but something about impact-driven content drew my attention - much more than before. Why? Simply because I can finally say that I am in a position to share these stories that can make an impact. In turn, this also led to unexpected opportunities and reaffirmed the value of our small but engaged audience.</p><p><strong>Chapter 2: Pivots as a small business owner</strong></p><p>Long ago, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/haominglee?miniProfileUrn=urn%3Ali%3Afs_miniProfile%3AACoAABcYBPkBaH2Wuw3WojflK7AIsKzKZvihhrQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Haoming Lee</a> shared some sage advice about branding - &quot;If no one knows you, you can rebrand in any way you want.&quot; This meant that I didn&#39;t need to fit any type of mould or business structure. I could pivot, and I did. From 100% podcast-related efforts, to talent-based effort. I&#39;m not just producing podcasts - I&#39;m hosting events, emceeing Gala dinners, launches and even moderating panel sessions!</p><p><strong>Chapter 3: Growth as a human being. </strong></p><p>Finally, on a personal note, embracing compassion and patience has transformed my approach to life and work. I no longer feel guilty for not working 8-10 hours a day. I am instead, grateful for this privilege, and will continue to see how I can help others in their work, businesses and lives.</p><p>Thank you for your continued support. Here&#39;s to an impactful 2026. </p><p>Keep listening and moving forward.</p><p></p>
