Thank You And Goodbye - Episode 124 [Unlocked Patreon]

This is a special but bittersweet episode. After 4 years, Girl In Skies podcast has come to an end. This is an unlocked Patreon episode that we recorded previously. We're now ready to share the news with all of you.. In this episode, we share how we have come to this decision and our plans for the future. This has been a difficult decision but we have had to make changes to accommodate our changing lives. We started out as 2 ordinary girls wanting to create a space for people who shared our similar experiences - immigrants, women, and more. We are so proud of what we've achieved and the community that we created with you all. We see this as a band coming to an end but perhaps with reunions, tours, etc in our future. So it's not goodbye entirely but see you later! Thank you so much to our Patreon family - you have kept the lights on and we cannot overstate just how much your support has meant to us. Thank you, a million times over. Nat has started a new show Chat With Nat & we'd be grateful if you checked it out! https://linktr.ee/chatwithnat Natasha (sometimes goes by Nat) & Xolie (sometimes goes by Michelle)!
