199: What myths have been holding you back from creating something like a podcast?

I've heard it all: "I don't have a big enough audience", "I just don't think I have anything interesting to say", "What I want to talk about isn't that important"...

Newsflash: what you have to say is important. We all have stories, and it's the fundamental way we relate to each other.

In this episode, Skye Pillsbury, the creator of ⁠"The Squeeze",⁠ a podcasting newsletter, talks about how she got into the world of podcasting, her journey to creating her own newsletter, and gives her opinion on why and how to start a podcast now.

She also discusses the importance of having a unique perspective and being passionate about your podcast, rather than just following the trend for the sake of it.

For those who are just starting out in podcasting, Skye offers advice on how to succeed as an indie creator without the backing of a media company. This is MAJOR advice you'll want to hear.
