Why I’m Pausing “KO Your Brand” (And What’s Coming in September 2025)
Katrina Owens (00:00.808)
What's up guys, welcome back to another episode of KO Your Brand. This is a quick hit. This is pulling punches. I'm your host Katrina Owens, top personal branding and PR expert, here to let you know that this is the last episode before we take a little break. And I know some of you are like raising the alarms and you're like, Katrina, I thought you said that you were so consistent, so disciplined.
You're not like the other business owners who like take a break from the podcast. And this is why I had to record a quick hit about this because I'm not just taking a break because I like need to rest or like I'm not dedicated to this podcast. I'm taking a break because well, actually let's be totally honest. I'm not taking a break behind the scenes. You will not be getting a new episode of KO Your Brand.
ever, you will be getting a new episode of something else coming September 2025. Okay. And the reason why I have to take a little bit of a pause from publishing episodes is because this change requires some technical changes, like on the internet and changing a bunch of things over and all of that and
I, there was never going to be a right time to do this, but because of some other things that I am launching, this is super timely and really feels like makes sense to just, yeah, take a little bit of a break for a couple of weeks, get everything sorted, make sure everything is like good to go. Because when we come back in September, 2025, you ain't going to know what hit you. I mean, the next couple of weeks for me are absolutely crazy.
I am speaking on stage in New York City. I am attending another event while I'm there, receiving an award. will be on, I almost just spoiled something. Ooh, okay. I'm be on dot, dot. Let that just kind of hang over you because you're gonna have to wait until the grand reveal on social media. But anyways, so many things are happening.

And it's just like such a exciting time for me. My brand has obviously gone through a lot of different shifts over the course of the last seven months as I really step away from my marketing agency, former self and into this new level version, this new level identity. And it just requires some changes when it comes to my brand, how I shop online, what this podcast looks like online. And yeah.
So with that, I didn't want to like just go dark on all of you because there are some of you that I see listening to this podcast every single week. You tell me you're a big fan. You tell me you love it. It's so funny the amount of people that actually will say to me like, I've been listening to your podcast. So I know that there are some of you that are going to miss this as I take a little bit of a hiatus, but it's so necessary because I think having a little bit of a break is what's going to enable me to just make sure
When I come back, we're going to blow the roof off this place. So I need you to do me the biggest favor while you have some extra time because you won't be listening to this podcast. I need you to go rate and review this podcast because even though some things are going to be changing, these reviews and these ratings still mean so much to me and they are still going to really help me as I take this podcast to the next level.
Y'all know one of my biggest goals is a seven figure podcast. So the changes that are going to be made in the next couple of weeks are changes that support that really, really big goal. So your ratings and reviews really help me get closer to that. So please do that. Please follow me at Katrina Owens PR on Instagram if you're not following me already, because honestly, that's where you're gonna learn about all of these exciting things that are coming up. And then,
You can follow the Instagram right now at KO your brand, just know that that's going to be changing too very soon. So I hope you've been loving this podcast. mean, this has totally exceeded my expectations since we launched on like the last day of March. There have been like 800 downloads across like five different countries. So many people from around the globe tell me that they listen and I just, that just means so much to me.
