Weʻve reached the end of Season 1 of The Serene-ish Podcast!
And as you can see from the photo above, we have had a really great time together.
As we wrap up the season, take some time off, and head into the next season, we wanted to take the opportunity to pause.
In this final episode of Season 1, Brenda and I take some time to reflect on what this first season of The Serene-ish Podcast has meant to us.
When we first began, we simply hoped to create conversations that felt honest, spacious, and encouraging. Maybe something you could listen to while walking, folding laundry, sitting in your car, or taking a quiet moment for yourself. We wanted to make room for the messy middle of life, where serenity isn’t something we’ve mastered but something we’re continually learning to seek.
Over these past eleven episodes, we’ve explored everything from creating rhythms of soul care, to melancholy, hope, holding space for others, and the small practices that help us stay rooted when life feels anything but peaceful. And of course, we shared some “goat moment” stories.
As we look back, we are grateful for this serene-ish space that has been created, and are encouraged to know we’re not navigating this journey alone.
A huge, heartfelt thank you to every one of our listeners of the podcast.
Along this journey, we have enjoyed hearing from you. Your messages, stories, questions, and encouragement have reminded us that these conversations don’t end when we stop recording. They continue in your own lives, relationships, and communities. That’s been one of the greatest gifts of this season.
As we look ahead to Season 2, we’re holding it with open hands. We have ideas we’re excited about, but we’re not rushing to fill every space. We want to continue creating conversations that are authentic, life-giving, and shaped not only by what’s on our hearts, but by what resonates most with you.
That’s where we’d love your help.
If you’ve listened to The Serene-ish Podcast, we’d be so grateful if you would take 3–5 minutes to complete our brief listener survey.
We’d love to learn a little more about you, hear what resonated most from Season 1, and discover what conversations you’d be excited to hear in Season 2.
Thank you for helping us dream about what’s next. We can’t wait to hear from you.

Until next season...
