What if content didn’t have to feel so heavy this year? What if you didn’t need to push harder, show up more or fix yourself to make it work?

Episode 200 marks a big moment for the podcast, and it also marks a shift. A new look. A new feel. And a more intentional conversation about content as we move into 2026.

In this episode, I’m inviting you to step back from the noise and reconnect with what actually matters in your content. We talk about letting go of old expectations, releasing the pressure to do content a certain way and creating from a place that feels supportive rather than draining.

This is about intention over obligation and remembering that content is meant to connect us, not exhaust us.

Key Takeaways

• Why content often starts to feel heavy, and what’s really going on underneath that feeling
• How to release old “shoulds” that no longer fit the season you’re in
• A gentler way to think about content creation as support, not pressure
• Simple ways to bring more intention and lightness into your content for 2026
