The Podcasting Party — Technology
The Podcasting Party

Are you wanting to start a podcast but are overwhelmed by the amount of information about podcasting?

Are you confused by all the technical language, and technology?

Are you frustrated by how expensive equipment and the costs associated with podcasting can be?

Or do you have a podcast?

Are you stressed out trying to create content, record, edit, and upload your episodes each week?

Are you frustrated by the lack of growth you see even with all your hard work and dedication?

Are you burnt out and ready to quit?

Then you’re in the right place. The Podcasting Party is a podcast for podcasters about podcasting.

As a podcast coach, I have seen a huge theme emerge with the women I coach: potential podcasters believe in the message they want to share through their podcast but they lack the confidence in themselves when it comes to learning the technology and starting their podcast. They spend months trying to figure it out, google their way through, and by the time they make it to me, they are stressed out, overwhelmed, and frustrated.

Beginner podcasters come to me burnt out and ready to throw in the towel. The message they once believed in is now dwarfed by the overwhelm and frustration they feel having to produce a show each week.

I’m on a mission to help potential and current podcasters take the stress, overwhelm, and frustration out of podcasting.

I believe that podcasting one big party, and you’re invited. Come join me and let’s put the party back into podcasting!

believed no one would notice if she stopped podcasting
made a pivot in her podcast
how she surveyed her audience to find out what was serving them, and what was not
how she overcame the lie that no one would even noticed if she quit her podcast
the one question that helped her gain clarity surrounding her podcast

And so much more. This episode will encourage you no matter where you're at in your podcasting journey but particularly if you feel stuck, stagnant, or aren't sure if the work you're doing even matters. (It does!)

She’s married to her high school sweetheart and Mama to 3 amazing kids ages 11, 8 and 5!
