Have you ever wanted to quit something right when it started getting hard — even though you loved it?
This is episode 50, and it's just the two of us.
We get honest about the parts nobody sees: the self-doubt, the hard feedback, what this has cost our relationship and our time, and why we're still showing up to record every single time.
Through real stories from behind the scenes, we dive into:
- Why we almost gave up more times than we can count (and the one thing that kept us going)
- The feedback that nearly stopped Tracey from releasing episode one — and how she came back from it
- The "stands vs. the field" mindset Scott uses to handle criticism, on the podcast and everywhere else
- How AI has cut our production time in half — the exact workflow behind our research, editing and trailers
- Why we stopped tracking views and subscribers, and what we focused on instead
- What we actually want this show to become, and what success means to us now
If you've ever stuck with something nobody understood, or wondered whether it was worth it — this one's for you.
