Episode 199: The Writing Journey: From Rejection to Success with Gennifer Choldenko
Before we go into today’s incredible episode, I wanted to share some important news: I am pausing the podcast until Thursday, October 31st. This decision comes after much reflection on how my business and personal journey have evolved over the past two years.

This pause will allow me to realign and ensure that the content I bring to you is in harmony with my new direction and purpose. Tune in on October 31st to discover the new path for “Who Can It BE Now.” Thank you for your continued support and understanding during this transformative time.
