If you've been publishing consistently but can't quite tell what's really working, this episode will give you the clarity you've been missing.

I'm walking you through the exact strategic planning questions I use in every podcast audit... the ones that reveal what's aligned with your business goals, what's creating real traction, and where you're losing momentum without realizing it.

You'll hear how one simple shift in podcast alignment helped a client increase qualified leads by 35% in two months, plus the three questions that close the gap between effort and growth.

Perfect if you want a clearer podcast strategy, better ways to evaluate podcast performance, and a plan for sustainable podcast growth that actually supports your business.
