Starting a podcast can feel overwhelming. With all of the perceived things you have to do before hitting record, it can be easy to put it off or be discouraged from starting your podcast altogether! But Esther Avant of The Live Diet-Free Podcast is here today to talk about her journey into podcasting, and why starting, even though it is scary or won’t be perfect, is the best thing to do in the long run. This week, episode 115 of Listeners to Leads is about overcoming the fear of getting started! 

Esther Avant is a health industry veteran with over 17 years of experience in fitness, nutrition, and wellness-related roles. She is a certified sports nutritionist, personal trainer, wellness coach, and owner of EA Coaching, which has provided holistic health & lifestyle coaching since 2015. Her mission is to help women live their happiest, healthiest, and most confident lives and to change the fact that the majority of women are so preoccupied with their weight and bodies that they never fully pursue their passions. She knows that if more women prioritized their health, they’d be able to unleash the confidence and focus they all need to leave their mark on the world. Esther hosts The Live Diet-Free Podcast.

In this episode of Listeners to Leads, Esther Avant shares the importance of starting your podcast imperfectly and actionable steps you can take right now to more fully utilize your podcast in your business’s marketing strategy.

Esther and I also chat about the following: 

• How a flexible recording schedule can help you prepare for the unknown.
• Being imperfect and knowing that it takes time to build up a listenership.
• The bias behind video vs. audio, and how audio allows listeners to paint their own picture of the speaker.
• Consistency, not perfection, is the key to success in podcasting.

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on turning your podcast listeners into leads and to hear even more about the points outlined above. Thank you for listening!
