EPISODE 45: During this episode, you’ll learn about the behind-the-scenes of creating a podcast. What does it take to create a podcast? Listen as I delve into my process from audio recording, outsourcing an audio editor and show notes writer, to how much it costs to produce a single podcast episode. Additionally, I discuss some of the biggest lessons in podcast creation as well as why you must be in your best emotional state beforehand. Tune in for more insights!


Audio Recording and Editing

[01:59] Record your podcast episodes way in advance to ensure you constantly have content.

[04:07] Create the best recording experience in terms of sound. You can surround yourself with plenty of blankets and cushions if you don’t have a soundproof room.

[04:54] Record your episodes and send them to your audio editor to remove all the unnecessary sounds in the episode.


Show Notes and Videos

[05:40] Once your audio is ready, send it to a show note writer to capture all the key takeaways, mentioned links and episode description.

[06:15] Upload the show notes and audio online and send to YouTube assistant to upload on YouTube too.


Biggest Lessons

[12:29] Find a way to create a wonderful cozy environment to share your episodes from.

[13:14] Create the best emotional state when recording your episodes, like eating and drinking beforehand.
