Ghosted by My Own Podcast: How Delays, Doubt and Dance Brought Me Back

ghosted-by-my-podcast

Movement, like creativity, isn’t always linear. Sometimes you pause, sometimes you leap, but the music is always there, waiting.

I candidly share my journey through an unplanned podcast hiatus. I explore the reasons behind stepping away—including technical challenges, shifting priorities, and self-doubt—and how these experiences mirror the creative process in dance and life. I reflect on the importance of returning to what you love, the lessons learned from stepping back, and the serendipity of connections that reignite passion. This episode offers encouragement for creatives, entrepreneurs, and anyone who’s ever paused on a dream, reminding listeners that every comeback is a new beginning and the music is always waiting for you to dance again.

A Few Key Takeaways

  • Life’s interruptions—whether technical, emotional, or circumstantial—can cause us to step away from what we love.
  • Guilt and doubt often grow the longer we wait to return, but stepping back can also offer valuable perspective.
  • The creative journey is not always linear; pauses are natural, but returning is where the real art lies.
  • Every comeback is an opportunity to reconnect, collaborate, and move forward—one step, one beat, one episode at a time.
