Episode 30 - From My POV w/ Brett & Emelie

All good things must come to an end. But, that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been a blast! Brett & I recap the last year - from buying a house, working baseball all summer, travelling, to wedding season - life has been busy, but no complaints here. On the podcast side, truthfully it’s been hard to keep up with in the grand scheme of things. As much as podcasting is still something I love to do and have a passion for, there are other things in my life right now that take priority over others, and that’s okay. I have appreciated all of the support this season and can’t thank all of my guests enough for taking the time to sit and chat with me about their unique POV’s. I have loved learning from each and every one of you! So with that, please enjoy this short but sweet - Season Finale of 'From My POV'.
