Headed on Holiday? -- XOTV Newsletter
Updates
Wow, August already? It's amazing how time flies when summer is here! Are you feeling like the end of this season means you need to escape on holiday one last time? We understand. But when you tie up the loose ends on your other responsibilities, what happens to your content schedule? Katie made a vlog about this exact problem, which you can click to watch below!
At XOTV, we've prioritized putting the podcasts we're working on first and are building some impressive backlogs for our shows that will launch in early autumn. Topics range from MMA fighting to compassion in business, and everything in between. We'll announce when they launch in this newsletter, so keep your eyes peeled!

Creator Profile
This week, I'm excited to highlight one of our new creators, Romita Bulchandani! Romita's channel on XOTV, Exploring Mental Health with Romita, is set to launch soon, keep an eye out for it!
Q: What is your best piece of advice for creators?
A: "Meet me at LOVE" is one of my favorite quotes by Dr. Joe Dispenza. There is nothing that can't be healed/solved with love, we are all searching for in some form in our lives. Have your community meet you at love.
Q: What do you like to do in your spare time?
A: Explore different parts of the world. The places that are off the beaten path.
Q: What's something you wish more people knew about you?
A: My awesome life didn't just land on my lap. I created it with a lot of LOVE. Before I could even create this life I had to learn how to truly LOVE.
Q: If someone was on the fence about joining XOTV, what would you say to them?
A: The people are fantastic and really care about you succeeding. You can't succeed in life without support, and XOTV is a really awesome support system to have in your corner.
