Ep.04: Podcasting Made Easy: How To Get Started This Weekend

I am thrilled to share that I've just birthed my own 'proper' podcast and I couldn't be more excited. Starting a podcast has been on my radar for some time now, but other priorities have kept it on the back burner -- until recently as a result of a with some of my clients.

One of them has been rebooting her business and as part of that, she rolled out a thoughtfully-crafted podcast, and the other had just kicked off her first podcast episode.

We talked about the challenge of podcast administration and the amount of time and effort that is needed to get each episode up -- and how it can drain once creative energy.

But, we also have a choice to simplify production – to hit record, have an interesting conversation and then upload straight away. Are the episodes perfect? No, but I firmly believe that it’s the message that is shared that matters more than anything.

Today I had so much fun creating my own album art and setting up a dedicated podcast page on my website. Now I feel excited and activated in a way that can’t quite be expressed in words.

Whether or not I will stick to a fixed schedule and the frequency of my podcast remains to be seen. But for now, I am just enjoying the ride and not confining myself to any limitations.

I am not looking to strategise or analyse, I'm simply looking to create and share. I think this is what makes the process so liberating and genuinely personal to me.

My intention is to keep the process as simple as possible. Down the line, I might even create a tiny course about it. Regardless of what happens, I am content in the fact that I'm opening up a new channel for people to discover me.

Thank you for watching. If you have any thoughts, let's chat in the comments.
