AP 814: About Progress LIVE || From Podcast to Page, Celebrate 10 Years of About Progress with a Special Live Podcast Recording

Author: Cloud10 September 10, 2026 Duration: 56:39
I can't believe it — we recorded a live episode of About Progress, and you're invited to join us for the whole thing. My friend Julie Rose, an NPR journalist and incredible interviewer, took the mic and asked me everything: how Sticky Habits went from a failed course to a published book, what 10 years and four million downloads of podcasting has taught me, and why I finally stopped waiting for permission to call myself a writer.  This conversation is about so much more than habits or books. It's about learning to be bad at things, giving yourself permission to be mediocre, and realizing that your worth isn't tied to your output. If you've ever felt like you're doing it all wrong, or that progress is something other people have figured out — this one's for you. Order Sticky Habits!

Monica Packer, a coach and host, guides About Progress with a refreshingly grounded perspective. She operates from a simple but powerful idea: meaningful change in our health, fitness, education, and mental well-being isn't about becoming a flawless machine. Instead, this podcast explores the tangible, often messy steps of real growth. You'll hear conversations that feel like a supportive talk with a clear-eyed friend-someone who offers both compassion and a necessary nudge forward. Each episode is designed to move you from intention to action, focusing on strategies that integrate into an imperfect life. The discussions naturally span the categories of self-improvement, from practical fitness tips to mental health insights, all without demanding perfection. This isn't about theoretical ideals; it's about what works when you're juggling the complexities of daily living. Tune in for a resource that feels both gentle and effective, a space where progress is measured in sustainable shifts rather than dramatic overhauls. The About Progress podcast, from Cloud10, builds a community around this practical approach, offering listeners the tools to grow in ways that genuinely stick. You can expect candid stories, actionable advice, and a consistent reminder that moving forward is always possible, exactly where you are.
