The podcast's main achievement in 2024 was a significant increase in subscriptions, growing from around 2,000 at the beginning of the year to nearly 10,000 by the end of the year on the Xiaoyuzhou platform.
The most popular episode in 2024 was Episode 54, which received over 7,000 plays on Xiaoyuzhou, largely due to being featured on the platform's recommendation list.
Gillian published an article in a journal that was significant to her academic journey, while Zeyuan had an article scheduled for publication in December and successfully launched a 30-day academic English writing improvement camp.
In 2025, the podcast plans to shift from weekly to bi-weekly updates to allow more time for content preparation and to explore additional services like courses on efficient reading and North American study applications.
Gillian is experimenting with a reverse planning method, where she schedules leisure activities first and then fits work around these fixed times to reduce anxiety and improve work-life balance.
