    77 - Taking a Break

    Welcome to the COURAGEOUS AF podcast Being Human Takes Guts In this week's episode, I am announcing a short break from the podcast. Between now and the end of the year, instead of releasing a weekly podcast, I will drop new episodes as I am able, while I focus on some big life and work projects that need more of my attention right now.  I hope to be back weekly by January 2026. If you'd like to help make that happen, I'd be grateful for your support, whether it be by sharing and helping to promote this podcast, and/or by donating to help support it financially.
