I’m back — and SPOILER ALERT, I’m married! In this episode, I’m recapping the whirlwind that was the last two months: final wedding prep chaos, a joyful rehearsal dinner, our emotional private vows, the blur of the big day, and our cozy mini-moon in New Hampshire. Then I’m talking about the post-wedding emotional roller coaster : the weird mix of pride and imposter syndrome, navigating my new “Beary” identity, learning to rest without guilt, and starting to think about what’s next for my life and career. If you love wedding stories, behind-the-scenes chaos, and honest conversations about transitions, this one’s for you. And stay tuned — Matt’s joining me next week for a full wedding debrief! Chat with you all next week! xoxo, Shlee ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/nevertheless-shlee-persisted-6369917/episodes/becoming-a-beary/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/nevertheless-shlee-persisted-6369917/becoming-a-beary.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
