Episode 401: I'm Back from the Podcast Dead — Here's What Happened and What's Next
After hitting episode 400, I went quiet.
No dramatic exit. I just... stopped. I really needed a break.
And now I'm back — but the show looks a little different. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what happened after that milestone, why I went down the YouTube rabbit hole (even though I swore I never would), and how that decision completely changed how I think about this podcast.
Here's what we get into:
The honest truth about my absence — what actually happened after episode 400 and why I didn't come back sooner.
Why I finally caved on YouTube — I said I'd never do it. I meant it. And then I did it anyway. Here's what changed my mind and what I learned after I went all in.
How the podcast works now — This feed is now the audio version of my YouTube videos. Same content, different delivery format. If you'd rather listen than watch, you're in exactly the right place.
What's coming — the topics, threads, and conversations I'm digging into this season.

What is Make Marketing Suck Less for Expertise-Driven Solo Businesses?
The only podcast that admits marketing is F@$!ing hard and makes it suck less for solo business owners who are juggling client delivery and sales on top of all those marketing tasks.
I'm your host, Dr. Michelle Mazur, the author of the 3 Word Rebellion and founder of The Expert Up Club. Unlike most marketing podcasts that share the latest marketing fads that promise “Viral Internet Fame,” I know you don’t need any of that BS to run a thriving business.
Each week, I share unconventional strategies and ideas grounded in research, not opinion, that help you clarify your message and become way more effective with your marketing.
While I can't promise you'll ever love marketing, I can promise you’ll hate it a tiny bit less.
