Join Patrick Casale and special guest Gordon Brewer as they unpack the trials and triumphs of podcasting alongside candid revelations about life's personal hurdles.

Key Takeaways:

Consistency is King: Building a loyal audience takes time – often years. Stay the course, and trust the process of organic growth. Your consistency will pay off.
Launch & Learn: Don't compare your beginning to someone else's middle. Imposter syndrome is real; acknowledge it but don’t let it derail you. Your unique voice has a place in the vast podcast landscape.
Passion Fuels Podcasts: Follow your curiosity and let your passion guide your content. Facing personal challenges? Use them as a catalyst for authenticity and connection with your audience.

Patrick and Gordon discuss the ups and downs of forging their paths in the podcasting world. With a focus on the human experiences that shape their professional journeys, they offer insights and encouragement for those embarking on similar ventures.

Listen to their stories, get inspired, and take that next step in your podcasting journey with confidence. Together, we're more than just voices in a mic; we’re a community supporting each other’s growth and well-being.

Resilient Mind Counseling

It's Patrick. Some of you may know that I own a group therapy practice in North Carolina, Resilient Mind Counseling. We specialize in supporting the Neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and Black, Brown, and Asian communities online and across North Carolina. We also have limited in-person openings at our offices in Asheville and Cary. We really love working with clients who are coming to terms with both Autism and ADHD discoveries later in life or questioning, as well as the intersections of race, gender, identity, and orientation. All of our therapists have lived experience and identify as AuDHD, Autistic, or ADHD. Our team of affirming therapists offers a safe, anti-racist, anti-oppressive, inclusive, and accessible space where you can show up exactly as you are—no masking, no judgment, and no need to make eye contact, just real connection and healing. We accept most commercial insurances like Blue Cross Blue Shield, United, Aetna, and Med Cost, as well as self-pay options. We currently have openings for new clients. Visit our website at resilientmindcounseling.com. You can also text or call our HIPAA-compliant phone line at (828) 515-1246, or email us at scheduling@resilientmindcounseling.com.
