308: Pregnancy, Projects & Podcasting: Life Update After a 3-Month Break (+ Giving Your Brain Space to Slow Down & Have a Quiet Quarter)

After three months away, I'm back behind the mic! This episode kicks off a mini-season of new content before I head into maternity leave. In this chitchat-style catch-up, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at why I took my longest break ever from the podcast after six years of consistent episodes—and what God taught me through it.I dive into how stepping back from content creation impacted my business (it wasn’t as dramatic as you might think), and how the space opened up room for clarity around some major personal decisions—like birth plans for baby #3 and navigating a super close age gap between our little ones. You'll also hear all about the van we bought, our family beach trip, a sweet baby sprinkle, and the nesting projects taking over my calendar.Whether you're a longtime listener or tuning back in after a break yourself, I hope this episode encourages you to slow down when needed, trust in divine timing, and find peace in saying no—even to things you love. I also share what’s coming next for the podcast, and why you’ll want to stay subscribed during my maternity leave.Links mentioned: Read the full show notes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/308  Hear Why I Chose To Take a Podcast Break: https://elizabethmccravy.com/307How to Start a Podcast in 2025: https://elizabethmccravy.com/302 Tune Into Colin's Birth Story: https://elizabethmccravy.com/148  Tune Into Ethan's Birth Story: https://elizabethmccravy.com/265 Showit template quiz: https://elizabethmccravy.com/quiz   Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabethmccravy/    Shop Showit templates: https://elizabethmccravy.com/shop   Join me inside Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod Black Friday is coming — the BEST SALE ALL YEAR!
