I have some exciting news, Unsettlers! Yesterday was day one of a trip that I have been looking forward to for months. My good friend Cait and I have been planning this trip for months, and touched down in NYC on Wednesday. We'll be heading over to Boston today for a couple of days, then back to NYC, followed by two days in Philadelphia and three in Washington, DC. I'm so excited to be on this trip, but that's not the exciting news! When we landed in New York, we settled into our hotel before grabbing some dinner, and while we were there, our friend Jess from Mo' Money Mo' Houses texted us some great news: The Unsettle Podcast landed itself a spot on the iTunes New and Noteworthy section! This was such happy news and totally came at the right time. And if it weren't for all of you listening and reading, it wouldn't have happened. So thank you, thank you, thank you! To those of you who have left a review, who have subscribed and listened and downloaded the podcast episodes, I just want you to know that I'm grateful for you.

You may have noticed this week on the blog the theme has been launching. Hundreds of Unsettlers have gone through the idea finder course, and after you choose your idea and commit to a launch date, this is the next step in the process. I'd highly recommend you build a launch plan for your blog or website, instead of just putting it out there for the world to see.
