Tara Swiger is the host of the Explore Your Enthusiasm podcast—a show she’s hosted since 2014. 

Explore Your Enthusiasm recently celebrated its 300th episode, and I couldn’t think of a better candidate for our first guest than someone who not only has put out so much content — but the majority of those episodes have also been solo!

I brought Tara onto Podcast Ally to pick her brain about how she keeps the show going. 

In addition to the podcast, Tara is an author, a foster mom, and the founder of a program of business basics for nerdy makers called The Starship, so you know that making it easy was one of her priorities in producing her own show. 

In her interview, Tara shares:

• Why Tara became interested in the podcast platform 
• Which is easier to produce — solo or interview episodes
• How she comes up with content ideas 
• Exactly how she puts her episodes together
• How she keeps going even when it feels really hard
• Tara’s tips for podcasters who are new to creating content or figuring out their audience   

Please check out the Explore Your Enthusiasm podcast!

If you’re a creative or maker, I also recommend you join her Free Facebook group called Confident and Profitable Handmade Biz. You can find that at facebook.com/groups/taraswiger.

They say it's better not to see how the sausage is made ... but when it comes to podcasting, Brigitte Lyons heartily disagrees.

Podcast Ally is a show by and for podcasters and the listeners that love them. Podcasting expert Brigitte Lyons interviews popular podcasters and explores the challenges and roadblocks they had to face as they grew along with their fans.
