Accountability Partners and Podcasting Goals

Today we have a few topics. First, its a new year! Are you ready? I go through a list of things that you might want to make sure you have. 

We talk about asking WHY to help you find additional motivation, and to TIME yourself so you can make informed decisions. 

Lastly, some people are making bad decisions for their podcasts as a business, and I give some advice on what to watch out for.
