• Seven standout moments from nine years of recording

• A quick tech confidence update, nine years in

Welcome to another episode of the Women in the Middle® Podcast!

Let’s celebrate the nine year anniversary of the Women in the Middle Podcast together! Nine years ago, Suzy hit record on the very first episode of Women in the Middle. She began the show sitting in a cold cedar closet surrounded by clothes from the 90s and had no idea what she was actually starting.

You’ll hear a real, behind the scenes look back that includes what it takes to create over 468 episodes. You’ll also hear about what nine years of showing up every single week actually took, what it taught her, and what she’s still learning right now about how to keep doing it well.
