So, your podcast isn’t growing, huh? Yeah, it’s like throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping it sticks, but all you get is a messy wall.

When I was married I bought my wife flowers once a week. You won't believe what she said to me!

Spoiler alert: if you’re not giving them what they want, they’re gonna ghost you faster than a bad date. So, grab your headphones, and let’s get to the bottom of this podcasting conundrum together!

Takeaways:

• Sometimes, taking a break from your podcast can slow your momentum, so be careful.
• If you're putting in a ton of effort but still seeing low numbers, maybe it's time for a change.
• Understanding your audience's wants is key; otherwise, you're just talking to a wall.
• Your podcast can be fun even when the numbers aren't great; focus on that joy instead!
• Don't get too attached to your ideas; switch things up a bit if they're not resonating.
• Feedback is crucial; if you're not getting it, you might miss the point altogether. No feedback IS feedback.
