Welcome Katie Dalebout to the Workwomb Podcast!

If you’re not familiar with Katie — uh, you're welcome — because she's just such a beautiful human. Katie is a writer, podcast producer and host, and the voice behind Let It Out, which has been running weekly since 2013 (yes, over 12 years!). She also co-hosts Spiraling, a podcast about anxiety, and her book Let It Out is a field guide for writing for emotional well-being.

This episode is all about what it really looks like to create meaningful work over the long haul — especially when the platforms, seasons, and strategies are constantly changing. It’s a tender, transparent look at pivoting in public, navigating career transitions, and staying devoted to creativity even when things feel murky.

We dive into:

The evolution of Let It Out — from its start in 2013 as a way to scratch a journalism itch, to a full-blown creative career
Navigating the tender in-between of a pivot: what happens when a chapter is closing, but the next one isn’t fully clear yet
How Katie’s creating space for reinvention by letting go of what once worked, and what she’s dreaming into next
The beauty of neighborhood intimacy, being known at the coffee shop, and showing up for your people
Why we must wither and decay before we bloom again — and how Katie’s honoring this seasonal truth in her work and life

Katie is such a heartfelt, creative being, and I love the way she cares deeply about humans — it really shows in how she creates in the world. You’re going to love this one if you’re a creative, someone leading a heart-led life, or if you’re thinking about the courage to evolve.

We also laugh (a lot), cry a little (okay, me), and reflect on what it means to participate deeply in your life, your neighborhood, and your work.

Without further ado, I’m gonna let you dive right in!
