The number of downloads does NOT equal clients or money in the bank, so why sweat it? 🥵
The numbers don't tell the whole story, and are often quite meaningless which can lead to focusing more on the metrics and less on the meaning of the podcast.
Enjoy learning and growing, and focus instead on the “squishy metrics” of connection, relationships, community, and finding ways to be a better storyteller and how those will make that little play button irresistable to press on.
❓ What do they need help on?
❓ What makes you authentically you?
❓ Why is it you that they have to listen to?
If you can see how podcasting is like any relationship, it can then be about putting the chapters of the relationship into perspective and forgetting the numbers, and enjoying the learning and growing process instead.
If you are ready to do this, I might just have the tool for you.
My Podcast from Scratch Roadmap can help you make the figuring out a piece of cake.
From finding your ideal audience to planning out your launch.
If you need it, you can take it.

You think you need to follow the "rules" for podcast success?
What you really need is unwavering belief in your podcast message, and that you are changing lives one episode at a time … and you’re doing it without fancy show notes, outros, and intros.
What creates impact …
Telling your people about your message, co-conspiring, and co-collaborating with them to change the world one episode at a time.
It all starts with that thing between your ears. Your belief in your message, your mission, and your ability to move minds with your mic.
And when you operate from that place it’s so much easier, scrappier, and unconventional, and podcasting becomes so much FUN.
When you speak to your baby birds, from a place of love and service, you create more, attract more, love more, and BE more.
Ready to change lives one episode at a time?

The podcasting landscape has changed dramatically in the past 10 years since starting my first podcast.
Becoming a successful podcaster takes time, commitment and the willingness to play the long game.
Here's how to take action like a successful podcaster:
✅ Become a compelling storyteller: It all starts with the story. This is what makes a podcast stand out from the crowded podcasting space. The intention behind it, the research, the time spent developing a voice.
✅ See planning ahead as job security: As a former magazine editor, I learned something SO VALUABLE that I believe is the secret sauce to my success as an entrepreneur... planning way ahead.
✅ Non-negotiable consistency: Release episodes regularly on a predictable schedule to keep audience engaged and coming back for more.
✅ Quarterly or yearly podcast tours: Flood the airwaves by appearing on multiple podcasts to provide solutions to the hosts by offering topics that align with their audience. Illustrate how to add more value to their show by teaching about an area of expertise.
✅ Develop your own success metrics and benchmarks - what matters based on your definition of success
✅ Develop a podcast business mindset
YOU can be a success even with the crowded space.
Don't let that discourage you as long as you COMMIT to showing up again and again.
It's never too late!

You know that you can always create more money and clients, but you can't create more time.
And time is the very resource you cannot part with much more of because you're busy loving-up on your clients and creating impact for them.
You don’t want to mess around going down Google rabbit holes trying to figure out all the nuts and bolts of starting a podcast when you can work with an expert who can guide you every step of the way.
You know you’re already the mama bird ... you're already a rockstar.
You’re out there serving your clients at the highest level and with the power of a podcast, you can coach, teach and reach someone's earbuds on-demand.
... And, you can't get much closer than someone's ears.
Your words are spells.
Let's conjure up some magic with your AMAZING PODCAST!

▪️Could you turn this into a passion project?
▪️An artistic outlet?

Why would you want to be anyone else?
When we follow all the “big” podcasts, we look at them as the mavericks. They aren’t trying to be something they are not.
If you’re trying to be them because they are doing it “right” it will likely be your WRONG because it will feel icky, forced and disconnected.
This is a sign you’re not aligned with your own wildly amazing gifts.
You create security and safety by being you. 🤪
Why? Because what is removed is your fear of not being taken seriously, looking silly, looking unprepared, not being intentional, not put together … or whatever your scarcity thoughts are.
Being unapologetically you allows you show up joyfully behind the microphone and you become a changemaker in your own right. 🤩
Will it be messy? Will it be scary at times?
Probably, but the payoff of stepping into your authenticity to celebrate the art of the spoken word is so worth it. 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

Why would a peacock deny its feathers? 🦚
Why would you deny the 💃🏻beautiful messy, edgy, amazing you that the world is waiting for?
Things only become hard when you’re being inauthentic.
Today’s the day.
Speak that truth because you are amazing with all the facets of you. 🙌
