Time stamps:
4:30 Just hit record and just keep talking without getting super self critical. Get comfortable being confident with what you say.
6:15 Give people the chance to know, like and trust you. 7-11-4 philosophy.
8:30 Consistency: Do it in some other area of your life to build proof of concept. Journaling can serve as a way to get used to sharing your words and getting clear on your thoughts.
12:30 Tell your stories. Share like you might share to a friend. Take note of how your funny stories actually demonstrate a deeper theme. An unexpected benefit of podcasting is remembering more and more of your own forgotten stories as they come to the surface.
20:00 Start by thinking of how you can add value, then just start. Your initial idea will evolve. Name it in a way that’s clear. Clarity wins over creativity.
24:00 Share your podcast more than you are comfortable with and ask your listeners to interact with you. People need reminders.
26:00 Audio quality and clarity of your words matter. Shawna’s microphone recommendations.
29:00 Not all guests add equal value, and they don’t all treat you equally.
33:00 Namely smartly, adding a description and time stamps. Spotify impressions for podcasts.
35:00 Have a game plan and goals. Thoughts on selling on your podcast.
