When I started the Digital Leaders Podcast 8 months ago, I couldn't have imagined how well it would be received. I'm humbled by the positive impact it has had and I am continually inspired by the amazing stories from the listeners and guests.
There are dozens of persons who have contributed to this effort - from sharing words of encouragement, to recommending the show, and of course appearing as guests.
I don't want to leave anyone out or neglect to recognize their contributions. After 40+ episodes and 500+ hours of production, it would be easy to forget some of the early supporters, so I won't tag or mention anyone specifically in this post, but I sincerely express my gratitude to you all.
I'm taking a short break to recuperate and reenergize. I'll be back in April with new episodes and a new website.
Thank you for joining me on this journey and I hope I'll have your continued support as I move forward with the podcast in 2022!
Your host,
Jay Harris
