Should you charge guests to be on your show? We dive into the controversial reality of monetization, consistency, and the hidden struggles of the top 1.5% of global podcasters. In this raw 4:00 a.m. reflection, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to "throw out the old blueprint" and keep a mission-driven podcast alive when the views are real but the conversions aren't. We discuss the trap of "networks," the ethics of paid spotlight series, and why 700k followers don't always equal a stable ecosystem.
