Reflecting on Five Years: A Year-End Message from Looking Forward Our Way

Looking Forward Our Way

Welcome to the new year!

We are celebrating our five-year mark as we enter 2025.

We began during the COVID-19 pandemic and have since produced over 124 episodes.

We appreciate our loyal listeners and enjoy making the podcasts.

We emphasize the importance of having the right co-host and maintaining a good rhythm in their conversations.

Our podcast focuses on interviewing experts to provide valuable information to listeners.

We encourage listener feedback and suggestions for future topics, aiming to be a resource for the community.

The show plans topics well in advance and is open to exploring new experts and international perspectives.

We are implementing a "Buy Me A Coffee" app to help cover podcast costs and receive feedback.

If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast!

We stress the accessibility of podcasts for all age groups and provide instructions for listening.

Thanks to you, our listener, and wish you happy holidays and a happy New Year.
