Why Podcasting Is About More Than Downloads: Coach Jonathan Mclernon’s Inspiring Story I Ep 12


Listen Later

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Coach Jonathan McLernon, the inspiring host of Between the Before and After. We dug deep into his podcasting journey—how he started, the bumps and breaks along the way, and why he’s so passionate about sharing the stories “in between” that usually get left out. Jonathan opened up about using podcasts not just for business, but for real, meaningful human connection. He reminded us that consistency, authenticity, and embracing imperfection are key—especially when life gets in the way. Whether you’re thinking about starting a podcast or you’ve hit pause and aren’t sure how to jump back in, I hope this episode shows you that the real magic of podcasting is in the stories and the people behind the mic. Just get started, keep it simple, and let your story unfold!
