It’s obvious: I love tea! But how do I incorporate it into my life, and what are my favorite ways to choose, brew, and enjoy it? In the tenth episode of this podcast, I dig a little deeper into my #tealife and share my rituals, practices, and preferences around tea – plus, I answer a bunch of great listener questions about how to brew tea, my favorite strainers and accessories, and more!
I don’t usually share my weekly podcast episodes here, since you can find them at TheTeasMade.com or if you’re subscribed on your favorite podcast app. But I wanted to share this episode here, because I’m really excited about it.
When I decided to rebrand my podcast and Substack a couple of months ago, I hoped the new name and focus would feel more connected to my topic - and audience. Both have proven to be true. I’m having so much fun creating episodes and writing here, and enjoying creating in a way I haven’t in quite some time. And I’m loving connecting with you all.
As my audience here continues to quickly grow, it definitely has me considering ways to streamline my efforts so that I’m not creating extra work for myself, while making it harder for you to find everything I’m doing.
I’m curious what you think! Would you like to see my podcast episodes and other updates republished here, or do you like the separation of having different things on different platforms? Or perhaps an early, ad-free sneak peek of each week’s episode could be a nice bonus for paid subscribers?

Here’s an inexpensive example of the kind of simple tea strainer insert I use. David’s Tea mugs often come with similar strainers and also feature a lid that doubles as a saucer.
