One of the best things about teaching people to do a podcast is when they actually launch their own.

But something else that is even more exciting to me, is when they decide they can be themselves.

They don't have to be this perfect version for everyone else to see.

One of the agents I taught to do a podcast, Julie Baker just launched her podcast called Positive Identity yesterday.

Although that made me very proud, there was something else that made me feel incredibly good.

After listening to one of my episodes, she said, "You gave me permission to be my authentic self".

That is an incredible feeling for me, and selfishly, it's part of what drives me to continue to teach these classes.
