In this episode of ABWilson’s Heart of the Matter, I pause and celebrate a meaningful milestone: our 100th episode.
When I launched the podcast, my intention was simple. I wanted to create a space for authentic, thoughtful and positive conversations. Seeing that intention come to life through each episode has been deeply rewarding.
Every guest is invited to respond to the same set of overwhelmingly positive questions. What unfolds each time is something unique. Through their voices, we hear wisdom, vulnerability and stories that stay with us.
To every guest who said yes, thank you for your openness and trust. To every listener who has tuned in, shared an episode or sent a message, thank you for being part of this growing community. I also extend my deep gratitude to those who make the show possible, my colleague, Dara; the show's audio editors; and the video editors. Without you there would be no show.
This milestone is a moment to reflect and appreciate what has been created and to look ahead with excitement and anticipation to the next 100 conversations.
