I think I would be interested in listening to relatively short episodes like 20-30 minutes about your daily life. So it could have a general name like "lessons" or "hear me out," not sure, those names suck haha, but just something broad so you could include different topics. So, yeah, could be talking to cancer patients, but also other protagonists in the cancer world like nurses and SOs of cancer patients. And also just about every other phase of your live, mental health right now, but later maybe traveling or journalism or feminism, or whatever weird adventures you take. Don't think this comment is very helpful, but what I'm trying to get to is I wouldn't worry to much about a theme right now, rather than just sharing what you feel the need to share with the world.

What do you think about publishing in general? Would the podcast have to be every week? I'm trying to have a high standard for what goes on the blog but it does slow things down... curious what you think? Right now, I kind of publish whenever

Also this was helpful, so thank you!

I wouldn't worry about a schedule right away, but if you want some sort of goal maybe aim for bi-monthly episodes? Unless that is too ambitious of course. Keep in mind: You life does not include a set schedule now... and I think your readers/listeners get that. You have days where you feel energetic but days where you're just in a funk. So if you miss an episode, you should go easy on yourself is my point. I would say, whenever you publish a post you think could transition well into an audio format, you should do it. For instance maybe you could talk to your mom about that story on your mental health? Like just having a recorded conversation about what she feels or how she could tell you were struggling.

Anytime. Looking forward to anything you produce! You're a definitely talented storyteller, remember that, so whatever you talk about in whatever way will be worthy of an audience.

Thank you. 🥰 Most of the time I think everything I make is crap. So it's nice to hear that.

I don't know if this was posted before but I would like to consider how one visualizes cancer from the inside biologically and metaphorically and how this plays out in the place where you have drenching sun, moss hanging from trees, vigorous tropical storms inundating and cooling the land, and how nature meets nature.
