The Wine CEO Podcast Sarah

After over 3.5 years of podcasting, 175 episodes, and over 100k downloads - it's time to take a break. I'm so grateful for each and every one of you who tunes in each Wednesday morning to my show! I love this podcast and enjoy creating new wine content every week for you, but I also recognize that it's important to rest and recharge my creative battery.
I'll be taking a sabbatical from my weekly Wine CEO Podcast and will also be taking a short break from social media in the coming weeks. If you have any questions about wine or requests for future content/ episodes, please feel free to email me Sarah@thewineceo.com or DM me on Instagram  @thewineceo  and I will respond to you when I return from my break.
Thank you all for your love and support! I'm so grateful for this community and the encouragement you have shown me over the last few years. I hope you drink something new and delicious this week and I will see you all soon!
