April 2025
Hello!
If you didn’t hear us talk about it in our last episode, you may have noticed by now that the podcast is on break between seasons. We’ll be back with Season 10 sometime late summer—we’ll keep you posted! Until then, look for a few bonus episodes. But in the meantime …
We’d love to see you!
We have a lot of book events coming up in the next month or so, and hope to meet and talk to many of you in person! Thanks for all your pre-order support. If you haven’t received your book yet, the official release date is April 28, so you should be receiving it soon. It’s been so gratifying to see photos of our book in the wild trickling in. Thanks for taking time to give us that little dopamine hit!
We’re busy recording a few interviews to celebrate the release of the book. Watch our social media for links to those episodes! Many thanks to the other podcasters who have generously offered to share our voices with their audience.
Book events:
May 8 — Signature Books, SLC
May 12 — Benchmark Books, SLC

Other opportunities to connect —
You can also get your book signed and say hello at the upcoming Gather Conference, June 27-28 at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo, UT.
Later this summer, we’ll also look forward to meeting you at the Sunstone Symposium, July 31-August 2 at the U of U Ray Olpin Union Bldg in Salt Lake City. We’re excited to be participating on a panel during the symposium. More details when we have them!
We need your voice …
Remember us talking in our season finale about how “we need you” will never be a compelling or empowering message for women? We’re standing by that—however, it’s complicated because—we really do need your voicemails! Listener voicemails have become such a beloved part of the ALSSI podcast, we can never get enough. Click here to leave one, or visit our website here. Please remember there’s a 90 second recording limit and plan accordingly. Share your news, your ideas, or your experiences. Anything you need to say, we want to hear. If we get enough, we can do a bonus episode during our break!
Also on the calendar:
Live Friday Chats:
May 16—on Zoom (we’ll drop the link that morning)
May 22—on Substack
Of course we hope you’ll keep the daily, Sunday, and Wednesday all-caps chats going through our podcast break. Many thanks to all who show up to support each other. It’s an amazing community!
Our Substack chat is one of the perks of supporting ALSSI with a monthly subscription. If you’re curious, we hope you’ll give it a try! As always, your support—whether through donation or subscription—will keep our podcast ad-free.
That’s a promise!
Thanks for being here with us,
and for all the ways you support ALSSI. 🏆
See you soon!
