In this behind-the-business episode, I share how I adapted a framework from a subscription box business coach (shoutout to Sarah Williams from a previous episode), filtered it through Podfox's mission and values, and created something entirely new. I get vulnerable about the challenges of trying a different sales approach, the gap between people saying "someday I'll start a podcast" and actually doing it, and why building community matters more than going it alone.

If you've been thinking about starting a podcast (or know someone who has), this episode reveals why most people quit before episode 11, what stops aspiring podcasters from taking action, and how Podcast Launch Prep Week addresses those obstacles with strategy, support, and community.
