100. The 100th Episode... It all started with this.

Here we are … at 100 episodes of Mothering Ourselves Mindfully! In this milestone episode, I'm sharing the real story of how I got here: one podcast at a time, no batching, no big master plan, just showing up week after week. I dig into why we convince ourselves something's too daunting to start, why perfectionism keeps so many of us stuck, and what actually got me from zero to 100. Plus, I'm sharing why I ditched the "everyone else's podcast" formula, what's changing with our upcoming program, and why community — not willpower — is the real key to consistency.

Key Points

• Why reaching 100 episodes never felt possible when I thought about it as "100" — I only ever had to do one
• The trap of needing to do things to the Nth degree or not at all, and how that perfectionism keeps us from starting
• Letting go of doing things "the way everyone else does them" — ditching the polished interview format for real, unedited walks in the woods
• Two reasons fear kept me from starting a podcast in the first place: not wanting to add to mom overwhelm, and not wanting to sound like everyone else
• Why community and accountability — not motivation alone — are what actually sustain change (the "plank club" story)
• An invitation to start with just one: one minute, one day a week, made fun and brought into community
• A heads-up that our upcoming program has evolved since it was first announced — details coming soon

Quotes

• "I never got to 100 without just doing one."
• "Set the bar so low you can trip over it. Just one."
• "It's not just me. It's not about me, it's about us."
