Pausing the Show in 2026

Today’s conversation fits under the P of Pause

Yes, I tricked you. Obviously Pause is not a word from the Humane Marketing Mandala.

That’s right. I’m putting the podcast on pause in 2026.

Some of you know that I’m co-creating a new community called Inner Development at work, all around the Inner Development Guide framework, where we want to change the world, starting from within.

Sound similar to Humane Marketing. That’s right. I was practicing this framework before it even existed.

Anyways, that community takes up a lot of my pro bono time right now, and I simply have to do in my own business, what I often help my 1on1 Coaching clients do in theirs: look at all the things we’re doing, and then prioritizing which ones to continue to invest energy in.

And unfortunately the podcast didn’t make the cut.

As you might know, creating and hosting a podcast takes a LOT of time, and I simply need and want to focus this time on other things right now.

So I’m pressing pause right now.

Pause but not Full Stop.

Because I might still publish an episode occassionally, whenever I meet a new amazing human being that I just want to have a conversation with.

So don’t unsubscribe completely.

Talking about unsubscribe.

I also moved the show to Kajabi (because they include the podcast in my plan) and just transferred all the episodes over the other day.

And guess how many episodes there was?

327!

Yes, I know, the visuals say 220, but I’ve actually been podcasting long before the Humane Marketing podcast. The first show was called ‘Where Introverts Grow Their Business’, then I renamed it to ‘The Gentle Business Revolution’, which finally morphed into ‘The Humane Marketing Show’
So yes, 327 episodes. Wow. I think I deserve a pause 🙂

Oh, what I wanted to say is that by moving to another podcast host I’m not completely sure what happens if you’re subscribed to the show in an app. So it maybe that you have to update it, or look for the show again and resubscribe.

Also, just because I’m pausing the podcast doesn’t mean I’m pausing the busienss.

I’m continuing to hold my two programs, Marketing Like we’re human and ‘How to sell in 2026 and beyond’. In fact the marketing prorgram starts another cohort on Feb 4th if you’d like to join us go to humane.marketing/program

I also continue my Conscious Business Coaching with 1-on-1 clients, so if you’d like support to help you grow your business with integrity in 2026, do reach out. you can go to humane.marketing/coaching to find out more.
