Pressing pause doesn’t mean you’re giving up. It might just be the smartest growth move you can make for your podcast.

In this episode of As It Relates to Podcasting, we’re dismantling the myth that consistency means never taking a break—and exploring how intentional pauses can actually help you come back stronger. If you've been feeling out of alignment, burned out, or unsure about the direction of your show, this episode will help you reset without guilt.

I’m sharing my own story of putting Happiness Happens on hiatus, the fears I faced, and how that break ended up reigniting my creativity and realigning me with my bigger vision. You’ll also get practical tips on how to pause with purpose—and return with even more connection, clarity, and downloads.

🔑 Key Themes & Takeaways:

  • You’re Not Failing—You’re Aligning: Why pressing pause doesn’t mean quitting, and how it can be a powerful realignment tool for your podcast and your purpose.
  • The Truth About Burnout: Why episodes recorded from a place of exhaustion rarely convert, and how taking space creates room for better ideas and stronger connection.
  • Reignite Your Creativity: How stepping away can give birth to a new brand voice, fresh content formats, and more meaningful conversations.
  • Keep the Momentum (Even While You Rest): Strategic ways to stay visible during your pause—like promoting past episodes, staying active on socials, and guesting on other shows.
  • Comeback With Intention: How to plan your relaunch with behind-the-scenes content, welcome-back episodes, new cover art, and updated formats your audience will love.

Taking a break doesn’t mean your podcast is over—it means it’s evolving. Let this episode be your permission slip to pause with purpose… and return with power.
