Podcast Strategy That Brings in Clients

Your podcast will never be perfect and that’s okay

Ever felt stuck in the endless loop of "It has to be perfect before I launch"?

You’re not alone. Perfectionism is one of the biggest things stopping people from starting their podcast, and I’ve been there too. In this episode, I share how perfectionism shows up in podcasting, from worrying about how you sound to feeling like you need to know everything before you hit record. You don’t.

I’ll walk you through practical tips on how to move past the fear of not being good enough and how to embrace the messy first steps. You'll learn how even experienced media professionals have felt this pressure and how they found the courage to start anyway.

I’m also sharing my own experiences of scripting every solo episode (yes, even now!) and how podcasting is something you get better at by doing, not by waiting for the perfect moment.

If you’ve been waiting for permission to just start, this is it. You’ll finish this episode feeling encouraged to stop waiting for perfect and start recording instead. And remember, your podcast will grow and improve as you keep showing up!

Connect with me on Instagram @podcast.support.services and let me know: What’s been holding you back from starting your podcast? I’d love to hear your story!
