I'm so proud that this day has arrived... This is officially my 100th Etsy Conversations Podcast episode. Well, technically, it's actually episode #102 I believe but it's my hundredth numbered episode. In the podcasting world (and in my own little world too) this is a big deal because "they" say that in podcasting most new shows don't make it past the 7th episode, so to now be a 3-digit podcast makes me happy that I have survived this long :) I wanted to make this a super-special episode to mark this milestone and have on a special guest but I didn't get who I really wanted and because I have been traveling internationally for the last couple of weeks, I decided that I'd just have a quiet celebration with just you and me... :) This is also a great time for me to take care of some housekeeping so in this episode I talk about some things that I don't usually get to talk about during the regular episodes. Topics Discussed

• Yes! I do sell on Etsy too :) One of my recent podcast guests asked me if I have an Etsy shop and why I never talk about it or promote it on the podcast... So I address why I have chosen to do things the way I do and what, if anything will be changing going forward.
• I talk about the benefits of being a guest on the podcast and what I do for featured shops, I also discuss how to be a guest on the show or how to make a suggestion for potential guests that you'd like to hear on the podcast. Have you ever wondered why some people aren't on the podcast...? I explain that too. Connect With Me - I'm almost everywhere on social media you'd think to look (but I'm not equally active on all platforms). All my social media links and contact information are below and I'd really like to connect with you on your platform of choice... I'm partial to some, I definitely have my "preferred places to hang out", but like I said, I'm pretty much everywhere. Podcast Reviews - in the world of podcasts, reviews are pretty important when it comes to directories like and . I explain why reviews are the lifeblood of a podcast (okay, maybe it's not that dire), but they certainly are great to have and I make a request for honest ratings and reviews.
