When I launched the Voted Least Likely Podcast, I was on the verge of closing my business.
I felt like I was the only entrepreneur who wasn't succeeding. Social media made it seem like everyone else had figured it out, while I was navigating missed opportunities, disappointment, and failure.
So instead of giving up, I started talking about it.
Four years later, that decision has led to 150 episodes, incredible guests, honest conversations, and a community built around one simple idea: you don't have to succeed alone.
In this special milestone episode, I'm reflecting on what I've learned from hosting the podcast, the surprising ways it has changed me, the common themes that have emerged from conversations with entrepreneurs, and the biggest mistakes I've made along the way.
If you've ever felt behind, questioned yourself, or wondered if everyone else has it figured out, this episode is for you.
In this episode, I share:
- Why I started the Voted Least Likely Podcast
-The unexpected ways podcasting has changed my confidence and communication
-The biggest lessons I've learned after interviewing 35 entrepreneurs
-Why imposter syndrome may never completely disappear
-The surprising definition of success that keeps coming up
-The failures and mistakes I've made as a podcast host
-Why vulnerability has become one of the greatest gifts this show has given me
