#372 | How To Stay Stuck At Your 9-5 With A ‘Hobby’ Podcast That Can’t Monetize

Want to grow to 5-10k monthly downloads and monetize podcast without replying on social media, paid promotions or high profile guests? Click here.

Are you secretly treating your podcast like a hobby… while expecting it to fund your freedom?

If you say you want to monetize your podcast and quit your 9–5, but your actions don’t reflect that commitment, your podcast growth will always hit a ceiling. The market doesn’t respond to intentions — it responds to execution.

In this episode, we break down the uncomfortable truth behind why so many podcasters stay stuck for years without traction, income, or momentum — and what separates hobby-level effort from business-level results.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover:

1. The single biggest decision that determines whether your podcast growth ever takes off
2. Why “great content” isn’t enough to monetize your podcast
3. The execution shift required if you actually want to quit your 9–5

If you’re tired of plateauing and ready to turn your podcast into a real business, this episode will challenge you to raise your standards and take action.
