My good friend and podcasting sensei Danny Miranda joins me in this episode to discuss what makes a successful creator vs. what makes an unsuccessful creator, tips and tricks that he uses on TikTok, the core principles of creativity, and so much more!
He and I both reflect on the last two years and how we've grown and fostered a following on social media, and Danny discusses what he loves about podcasting, what he believes the principles are of being an effective podcaster, the importance of doing the research before recording a podcast (especially when you're interviewing someone), his experience doing the 75 Hard Challenge, what his current goals are, and so much more!
Danny also, as is usual on this podcast, responds to a few rapid-fire questions, including but not limited to his thoughts and feelings about Andrew Tate, who some of his mentors are, what makes a creator successful vs. unsuccessful, and more. I have known Danny for the last two years, and he has been such an inspiring mentor for me. I had such a blast interviewing him and hope that you enjoy listening to our conversation. If so, then, if you aren't subscribed to the show already, please be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcast app! I would also really appreciate it if you would share the podcast with at least one other person you know who might also enjoy it and if you would leave me a five-star review! That really helps the show out!
