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!

How to Come Back from Podfade Sep 13, 2021

Show notes

Welcome back to The Podcasting Party! I am so excited to be back with you today. I know we've had a little bit of a break and I'm going to talk more about that in the show. Today on the show I am talking about podfade, not a super popular topic among podcasters. However, I believe it’s a very important topic because at some point most podcasters will podfade, so the question is not if or when but, what do we do when it happens? How do we come back after we podfade? I’m sharing some of my personal stories and, as always, I have some tips and encouragement for you.

Show Takeaways:

Learn exactly what Podfade is and why it happens
Understand how to prevent podfade
Discover how to come back after you’ve podfaded
Listen to Alana’s story of podfading

3 Ways to Fall in Love with Podcasting Again Feb 09, 2021

Show notes

Has the flame gone out of podcasting?

For some of you, 2020 was the year that allowed you the time and space you needed to start your podcast, which is amazing.

And then for others of you, I would guess for most of you, 2020 was the year that made it nearly impossible to continue to podcast for you. You had kids home, and spouses home, loved ones home, and it's hard to keep up a podcasting routine when your regular routine is thrown out the window.

Or maybe it wasn't 2020 at all but the newness of podcasting has worn off and the daily grind has set in and those butterflies you once had for podcasting is no longer there.

Whatever the reasons I talk to podcasters everyday who are ready to breakup with podcasting.

Since February is the month of love and Valentine's Day is just around the corner, I wanted to get back to basics and discuss the 3 ways to fall back in love with podcasting again. I promise today's episode is value back and is just what you need to get your podcasting relationship back on track!
