Today, we're celebrating 5 years of this podcast!

Here is the passage from The Horse and His Boy where Aslan reveals to Shasta (later known as Prince Cor) how he had been guiding and protecting him throughout his life. This quote is from Chapter 11 of The Horse and His Boy:

“I was the lion who forced you to join with Aravis. I was the cat who comforted you among the houses of the dead. I was the lion who drove the jackals from you while you slept. I was the lion who gave the Horses the new strength of fear for the last mile so that you should reach King Lune in time. And I was the lion you do not remember who pushed the boat in which you lay, a child near death, so that it came to shore where a man sat, wakeful at midnight, to receive you.”

If you’re still thinking the secret to podcast audience growth is landing a big name guest, I have some news.

This episode is going to ruffle some feathers in the best way. Because the truth is, you don’t need viral guests or a massive Instagram following to grow your show. Beyond SEO for podcasts, you need strategy. You need visibility that actually converts. 

Here’s what we’re covering inside:

We’re in the messy middle of building your foundation. These are the steps that lead to long term podcast audience growth, not short bursts of clout.

So if you’ve been wondering how to grow your podcast audience, and you’re done with the guesswork and gimmicks, this episode is for you!

Are you building a loyal podcast listener community? Here's how to do it!

Have you ever felt like podcasting can be a lonely journey? Without a dedicated community of engaged listeners, growing and sustaining a podcast can feel like talking into the void. Building a loyal listener base is the key to long-term podcast growth, deeper engagement, and future monetization.

In this episode, you will learn how to grow your podcast by creating a thriving community that goes beyond passive listening. A strong podcast strategy includes spaces where listeners can connect, engage, and become invested in your show. Whether through a Facebook group, Telegram channel, email list, or another platform, providing a space for deeper interaction builds stronger connections.

Encouraging podcast listener engagement means offering valuable content consistently. People seek out meaningful content that fits their needs, and a well-structured podcast content strategy ensures that every episode delivers value. Thoughtful podcast storytelling creates a lasting impact, making listeners feel like they are part of something bigger.

A well-optimized podcast SEO strategy ensures that your episodes get discovered, but retention depends on how well you nurture the audience once they find you. Strategic podcast keywords in your titles and descriptions help new listeners find your content, but engagement determines whether they stay and become long-term fans.

As your audience grows, your ability to monetize increases. In future episodes, we will explore how to make money from a podcast and effective podcast monetization strategies that turn loyal listeners into paying supporters.

If you want to increase podcast engagement, it starts with making every episode feel like a must-listen. Listeners should feel like they are gaining exclusive insights and being part of a movement. When you position your podcast as more than just information but as a community-driven experience, listeners will keep coming back and naturally share your show with others.

Listen and start building your listener community today!

Are you creating podcast episodes that get shared? Here's how to make it happen!

Have you ever wondered how to make your podcast go viral? Every podcaster wants more listeners, but the real secret to organic growth is creating episodes that resonate so deeply that people can’t help but share them. That’s exactly what today’s episode is all about.

Listeners connect with stories more than they connect with facts. Storytelling makes an episode memorable, engaging, and shareable. Simple, everyday moments can turn into powerful connections. Whether it’s a personal story, a relatable challenge, or an aha moment, the way you structure your episodes determines how much they resonate.

In this episode, you will learn how to grow a podcast by using the power of storytelling, balancing evergreen and trend-based content, and structuring episodes in a way that keeps listeners engaged. You will also discover how to get podcast listeners to stay until the very end and feel inspired to share your show with others.

A strong podcast content strategy is the foundation of long-term growth. If your episodes remain valuable long after they air, they continue to attract new listeners over time. Combining timeless content with strategic moments that spark curiosity increases visibility and encourages organic sharing.

You will also hear podcast marketing tips that help you build an engaged audience. Learn how to promote a podcast on social media by leveraging emotional impact, shareable insights, and storytelling techniques that make people want to spread the word.

At the end of the episode, there is a special assignment to help you apply these strategies to your own podcast. Make sure to grab it using the link below.
