#203 Podcasting Lessons After 200 Episodes

Unicorns Unite: The Freelance Digital Marketing Virtual Assistant Community

After 200 episodes, I’ve learned that having a podcast forces you to show up. I say this all the time about hiring a team– when you have other people who are working beside you to accomplish a goal, you take it seriously and don't put it aside.

This is gonna be a fun episode because I also asked my podcast editor, Emily Porter, a fellow military spouse (she has been on the show before) and I asked my podcast/marketing assistant, Shannon Govern for their tips and podcast lessons.

Listen in to learn more about

• my top 10 podcasting lessons after doing 200 episodes
• pod fade and effective strategies to prevent it
• collaboration, consistency, and organizational tips to keep things running smoothly
• how to identify and capitalize on podcasting trends while staying authentic to your brand
• the benefits of working with a team you enjoy and align with

I’m all about being transparent and want you to know what's happening behind the scenes. I am never the person who tries to pretend I can do it all because there's no way in hell I could do it alone.
