This is a podcast by Helen Redfern and Claire Holden.

If you enjoyed this podcast please do share it and let us know. We’d love to hear from you.

Today we are delighted to share the first episode of our podcast about our Substack journey.

Helen has been on Substack since June 2022. And Claire launched her Substack in January 2023.

We are both coming to Substack from different places. Helen has around 15,000 followers on Instagram, a small YouTube channel and a previous mailing list. Claire has a smaller Instagram with no previous newsletter.

We want to share how we get on with Substack, how we use the platform, how we use it as a place to share our writing, how we grow subscribers, create a community, and hopefully make an income. At the same time as writing our books and, in Helen’s case, creating videos on YouTube.

If you are launching your Substack, or thinking about it, or if you’ve been on here for a while we would love you to join in and share your experiences.
