As we look back on 2025, I’m blown away by the response to The Vine Podcast this year. Your downloads, messages, and feedback showed us exactly what resonated—and honestly, the themes that emerged say so much about where food blogging is headed.

Here’s what you couldn’t get enough of:
The most recent episode you loved? EP 223 with Allea Grummert on building welcome email sequences that stand out in an AI-saturated world. You’re not just thinking about traffic anymore—you’re thinking about real connection and owned audiences.
Close behind were episodes on streamlining photoshoots (EP 220 with Melodee Fiske), avoiding web design mistakes (EP 218), and scaling without burnout (EP 216 with Bjork Ostrom). The message is clear: You want to work smarter, not harder.
The common thread? You’re stepping into your role as CEO.
Whether it was learning about SEO strategy (EP 212 with Jeff Hawley), digital product launches (EP 214 with Emily Baksa), using AI strategically (EP 209 with Hanelore Dumitrache), or balancing Instagram authenticity (EP 210 with Kimberly Espinel)—you’re thinking bigger. You’re diversifying revenue. You’re building sustainable businesses.
And the episode where I shared what I’d do differently starting over (EP 215)? That one hit home too.
What this tells me: You’re not just blogging anymore. You’re building brands. You’re creating businesses that matter. And you’re doing it thoughtfully.
