Disappointing podcast metrics? Hazy podcast content strategy? Feeling the burnout, the overwhelm, the dread… and it's only January?! When we only think about podcasting for our business, brand, or organization in order to grow our audience, and the reason we wanna grow our audience is to sell more of a thing in order to make money, then we are often going to be disappointed. Why? Because there are easier, more cost effective, faster ways to grow our audience, to sell more of a thing to make more money. This does not mean that podcasting doesn't work, but it means that we have to be a little bit smarter than just download numbers, growing our audience to sell a thing. We have to think about what podcasting does really, really well and how to leverage the time, the money, the energy, the effort, the investment that we are putting into our podcast, to know how to leverage that in a way that it makes more sense, that it fits into our strategy and into our workflow… better.

I don't want to offer you another recap roundup or year in review episode. The other thing I'm not offering you is a “new year, new you” episode. But I DID want to come on here and have a podcast conversation with you because things are changing. And I'm actually pretty excited for 2024! When you started your podcast, you had an idea in mind, probably, of what you wanted to offer to your audience, a problem that you were solving or something that you wanted to speak to. And maybe you've been chugging along and you felt great and it was working and it was making a difference and people were joining your podcast and your audience was growing and then something happened.  You became bored or disillusioned with your show, or your numbers kind of stagnated or maybe even dropped. But it's not that you suddenly are doing something wrong – it's that your community, your audience is also changing. And so what it is that they need now and how can you shift to meet that need?

Our podcast agency, The Creative Impostor Studios, is a FINALIST in the 2023 Signal Awards for Key Change, the podcast we produce for the Santa Fe Opera, a behind the scenes pass into the issues, stories, and artists creating the next generation of American opera. We are up for 2 different award categories - Best Music Show Best Diversity Equity and Inclusion Episode  It's for an episode called "Telling Hard Truths", chronicling the day before the world premiere of This Little Light of Mine, an opera based on the life and legacy of voting rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer. That episode is especially meaningful to me because we were able to record with Fannie Lou's daughter, Jacqueline Hamer Flakes months before she passed away this year. Now as much as this announcement is about celebrating with you, our podcast people… we need your help! I have NEVER submitted any of our work to a podcast contest before and I chose Signal as our first one because of their incredible, diverse and reputable panel of judges and because of their accessibility for and inclusion of independent producers alongside corporate network shows. As a Signal Finalists Key Change has been singled out as one of the best in the industry in its category (meaning it's among the highest scored work of nearly 2,000 podcasts entered) and their awesome panel of judges will determine the Gold, Silver and Bronze awards. But YOU get to choose the winners for the Signal Listener's Choice awards by voting online by October 5, 2023.

I have a confession to make and that is that I have a problem. There is a word that I have started using. I have adopted it into my language, into my vocabulary, and I am very disturbed and ashamed, and it's not a word that I wanna be using ever, or at least not as much as I have been as of late. And that is, well, if you looked at the title of the episode, you already know it's the “c-word.” I serve business owners, thought leaders, and organization directors in their respective niches to use the medium of podcasting towards whatever their higher purpose or goal is. But this whole media landscape is getting more competitive day by day.  You CAN use this platform to create genuine, intimate, meaningful conversations with your listeners. You are creating meaningful change in their life. You are providing them something that they don't get anywhere else. However, they need to be able to find you, and once they find you, you need to be able to capture and hold their attention long enough to build the relationship.  And that's where the "p-word" comes in!

The summer slowdown... it's the PERFECT time to do a bit of business development that is actually FUN! This year, Lauren Ramsey of Betsy Bash and I decided to team up to help you with this conundrum of feeling like you are constantly on the content hamster wheel generating podcast episodes, generating social media posts, making TikToks and reels, trying to figure out what the heck to put on YouTube, trying to figure out what the algorithms want... Why is it important to sync your content across your podcast, social, and other marketing channels? Lauren says, "Your audience is seeing all of those channels. So if they don't match, if they're not aligned, people can feel that. Whether or not they realize it consciously, they are realizing it subconsciously and it negatively impacts their perception of your brand. Which is really hard to get rid of later. Right? Like how do you change someone's subconscious?" Your social media exists to pull people towards your brand. It's there to create a community around your brand. So if it's not aligned with what your podcast marketing goals are, that's a huge miss.  Not to mention... you're burning a lot of time, energy, and resources. So what's a podcast creator to do?

Welcome to a crossover episode of a different sort. But first: How are you doing? No, really? I ask because May is Mental Health Awareness Month. So many of us, myself included, struggle to articulate how “off” we feel right now, a cruel joke given that the good folks and orgs behind this month's observance urge us to check in with our emotional, psychological, and social well-being.  I'll go first (yikes!): The only way I can describe my current state of mind is fragile. Can you relate? If you're an entrepreneur, an educator, a corporate employee, a HUMAN, I bet you can. You're okay. I acknowledge and honor your struggle. This episode isn't about mental health per se. It's about creating a secure and attentive environment for guests to feel supported, understood, and willing to engage in vulnerable conversations. The high schoolers behind Power Your Story, my student mentee podcast, beautifully illustrate my point. Their cohort-led interview with Peer Support Specialist and Mental Health Advocate Ashley Scott showcases subtle practices anyone can incorporate to become a better listener and, thus, better podcast host. Co-hosts Elvis, Emerie, Jules, and Alejandro facilitate a space where Ashley feels supported to speak more candidly about her mental health. That safety is mutual: Ashley's comfort leads the students to go off-script, to ask more meaningful follow-up questions, and to add personal observations that make for a more engaging conversation. You can talk about podcasting for marketing, sales, audience growth, or business all day, but this genuine exchange is why I love podcasting; this is where your audience will find value. The last few episodes of Podcast Envy have focused on hosting and content strategies guaranteed to make your show a repeat listen. By creating a safe, intimate container where you and your guests can discuss important topics, you're signaling to the audience that they, too, are seen and heard. I appreciate that not everyone's format is conducive to exploring tough conversations. Still, anyone can follow the Power Your Story lead, regardless of your show's POVs, by remaining present and reflecting back to each guest. For Mental Health Awareness, check out all of this month's related Power Your Story episodes:  Insomnia & Dreaming of a Better Night's Sleep with Leonardo & Dewayne;  The Journey to Self-Empowerment: Mindfulness,Law of Attraction with Hysan & May;  Heavy Metal & Mental Health with Justin Bowling by Leslie, Carlos, Essence & ChuYing and produced by Aldo; Advocating for Mental Health & Peer Support with Ashley Scott RECOMMENDED LISTENING PEP106 - Awesome Podcast Host Featuring Karen Yates Power Your Story Refresh Your Podcast (Don't fade out!)

Psst. Want to know the secret to becoming a better podcast host? It's not your equipment. Relationships are everything. Research indicates that while folks may listen to podcasts for entertainment and information, they remain loyal to a specific show because of its host. Karen Yates is definitely that host. She's a producer, host, and the mastermind behind Wild & Sublime, the super-successful, highly binge-able podcast about sex for everyone, no matter their preferences, orientation, or relationship style. Here are a few of my fave hosting tips: Get into the rhythm.  Act natural, strategically.  Craft different but authentic voice personas.  Skip the pre-show cheese stick.

I've been learning about sales. NOT my natural zone of genius, but I'm necessarily getting better at it, partly thanks to one of our clients, Paul Reilly at The Q and A Sales Podcast. On a recent episode called “What separates top achieving salespeople?” Paul said that 79% of top achievers' sales success is because of the customer relationships they build.  His team asked buyers and decision makers: Why would you choose one partner over another? Relationship with a salesperson ranked higher, meaning more important, than price. And part of relationship building is ENTERTAINMENT. You may be thinking, “But Andrea, I'm not selling anything when I'm making a podcast!” Wrong! On the surface, you may have a podcast to help you sell a product or service, join your membership, come to your event. Dig deeper, and you may be selling them on an idea, concept, or a change you want to see in your niche. And ultimately, you are ALWAYS selling them on continuing to spend their valuable time and attention listening to your podcast. So how are YOU going to make your podcast more entertaining as you build that relationship with your listener (i.e. your customer?) I've got 10 ideas for you!  You may be thinking, “Do I have to sing? Be funny? Do investigative journalism? Sound design????” NOT NECESSARILY! Play the episode to find out what to do and how to choose your authentic entertainment style. *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

Now, this may be difficult to hear, so sit down and take a deep breath... Your podcast might be a little boring. What? Gasp. "There's no way," you say defensively. I'm not saying that you're doing a bad job at podcasting. Not at all. I simply want you to consider a few ways to make your show more compelling. I'll even offer up a formula for your success!  For now, consider this: Three-quarters of podcast listeners enjoy a podcast "for particular hosts." The host is the reason they appreciate the podcast! Not the content, not the guests, not the information… the host. *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

Ahhh spring! Sort of. Here in my northern hemisphere home, it's still hella chilly, and I require more mood enhancements than these early weeks of daylight saving time can provide. Who better to chat with than Jessica Kupferman, CEO and co-founder of She Podcasts? She's the equivalent of a vitamin D booster in hilariously brilliant, totally authentic human form. Alongside co-founder Elsie Escobar (who's also appeared on PE), Jessica has created something unique in a space dominated by male voices (literally and figuratively): the largest podcasting community created by and especially for women, non-binary, and LGBTQIA+ folks. In addition to its own podcast, extensive social media community, and membership, She Podcasts hosts She Podcasts LIVE, an annual gathering of diverse talents and viewpoints. The best part about the She Podcasts universe? Everyone is welcome here. Seriously, with a community of over 21,000 members, there's room for pro podcasters, newbies, and wannabes.

In university parlance, a 101 class forms the foundation for sustainable proficiency in a particular subject. It's fitting then that this one-oh-one episode of Podcast Envy is an installment of “Hey Andrea!” where I answer questions posed by real-life podcasters about creating a successful, satisfying podcasting experience for themselves, their business, their brand, or an organization.  Today's question comes via the She Podcasts Facebook group from Jeannette Bonner, producer and host of Hashtag Single. Jeannette asks, “How do I get over podcaster's block?”  Ugh! Is there a more universal dilemma in all of podcasting?  Fortunately... I've got some tried & true strategies for you!

PODCAST ENVY HAS REACHED 100 EPISODES!  The all-cap is warranted. Looking back over 100 episodes, I can't help but think about the olden days of my business. When I launched Podcast Envy in 2018, I had a small roster of podcast editing clients and helped a handful of folks launch new shows. Oh, and the “team” was just me and Edwin Ruiz, CI's technical director extraordinaire.  My centennial achievement is only half the story. The other half belongs to the Creative Impostor Studios team––a team I'm mad proud to say has gone global: Monica Braine, Associate Editor & Consulting Producer (Albuquerque, NM); Helen King, Associate Editor (Auckland, New Zealand); Alex Riegler, Podcast Manager (Chicago, IL); Edwin R. Ruiz, Technical Director (Chicago, IL); Heidi Stabbert, Associate Editor (Anchorage, AK); Caitlin Sunderland, Social Media & Outreach Coordinator, (Richmond, VA); and Lisa Widder, Show Notes Copywriter (Chicago, IL). To mark 100 shows, I asked each of them to offer up some sage counsel for podcasters, plus a piece of advice for folks wanting to do what they do on the daily.  MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE PE055: Celebrating Podcast Milestones Podcast Envy DIY+ Launch Program - Book a 20min Virtual Tea Date with Andrea to see if you're ready! *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

Today I am answering a question that I have gotten from not one, not two, but many a podcaster in some way shape or form “How do I leverage my video for my podcast?” and it's near cousin “Should my podcast be on YouTube?”  I'm going to start with the 2nd one. Should my podcast be on YouTube?  If you know anything about me you know I don't love stats & numbers. They don't mean anything to this theater kid's anecdotal brain — BUT suffice to say the stat show a LOT of people use YouTube every day. WAY more people than listen to podcasts.  Also, YouTube is the 2nd largest search engine, after Google.  Keyword search in Google and YouTube = Awesome!!! Keyword search in most podcast apps…. wah wah wah wah… Why wouldn't you want to do everything in your power to make you podcast and by extension your brand and yourself as searchable ie. findable as humanly or algorithmically possible?  Well, time, resources, energy, effort is finite and it's hard to be able to do all the things that you could do to that end within you particular set of constraints.  So HOW you go about putting your show on YouTube is maybe the better and indeed more nuanced question. Life's too short and there are too many options out there to do business marketing tactics that feel boring or even dreadful! *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

What is it about a new year that sends me deep into my productivity feels? ‘Tis the (well-marketed) season for shiny new projects over thoughtful annual assessment. For tidal waves of bigger! better! concepts vs. gentler tides of introspection.  So, who else besides me needs a life vest to keep from drowning under a productivity deluge?  Truth: I have a complicated relationship with productivity.  Sarah Steckler feels our pain. She's a productivity strategist and educator who helps folks bring more intention and awareness to their personal, professional, and creative mindsets via courses, planners, and weekly newsletters. Sarah's also the host of the Mindful Productivity Podcast, on which she breaks down proven productivity skills and entrepreneurial organization strategies into totally doable, sustainable habits. Sarah reminds us to take the smaller steps when we're feeling overwhelmed by productivity adrenaline, especially the tasks that have seemingly little direct impact on our larger aspirations. Eventually, they will. Being more productive doesn't necessarily mean doing more stuff, says Sarah. “It's doing less, more effectively, right?” MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE PE079: Better goal setting for podcasters with Kelly Covert CONNECT WITH SARAH STECKLER Website Podcast Instagram Twitter Facebook *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

It is a new year and it is time for a good old fashioned Podcast Boss Rant. Are you ready?  This year I am creating SOPs, or Standard Operating Procedures for The Creative Impostor Studios. Boring. But I guess a necessary thing if you want to create a scalable business that grows, that doesn't make your brain hurt every time you try to bring on a new team member, or remember how you did the thing or try to build some consistency or whatever, but this is not an episode, nor a rant about SOPs.  This is a rant about CONTENT. Little known fact: I learn most of what I know about business from listening to podcasts.  And so I went to the trusty Apple Podcasts app, typed in  “Standard operating procedures” looking to my very own "podcast grad school" for the answers.  I found two I was excited about: one was 44min long and made by podcasters for podcasters and the other was by a random business coach I never heard of and was 10min long.  Did either episode give me what I was looking for? *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/podenvy093 I'd love to hear your thoughts!

It's one thing to successfully create a podcast that informs, engages, and inspires. It's another thing entirely to do so while maintaining the voice of an organization.   Enter Destination Santa Fe Opera, the show that makes it look sound so easy.  As a producer of the show, I'm responsible for creating much of that illusion. However, as a freelancer, I work approximately 1200 miles away from Santa Fe Opera's sprawling desert campus and three folks who've made this project sound so unlike others occupying the same niche. Emily Doyle Moore (director of media and public relations at Santa Fe Opera & executive producer of DSFO), Dune Alford (former media and PR associate at Santa Fe Opera & DSFO producer), and Jane Trembley (former house manager at Santa Fe Opera & current host of DSFO) lend their collective two cents (six cents?) to this conversation about institutional podcasting.

I don't love listener "avatars." They're not real people! And you want real people listening to your podcast, right? So how do you determine WHO your ideal listener is, especially when you haven't launched yet? How do the hosts of a brand new purpose-driven podcast communicate their vision and cultivate a listening community? And why is this so important anyway? Time to break down the particulars in this session of “Office Hours” with guests Stacie Lampkin and Mike Palazza, podcasting newbies who are *this close* launching their show, Healthcare Behind the Scenes. The pair reached out to Podcast Envy for strategic advice on a few premise and format aspects of their show.  From refining the example of their ideal listener to highlighting their co-hosting strengths, our coaching session yielded tips that will help you craft an inspired show of your own, one that cuts through the status quo.

Welcome to a conversation about podcast positivity with a somatic sex educator! Sex positive podcaster Karen Yates is in the midst of a pivot. Her show, Wild & Sublime, will still deliver its trademark sexy spin on infotainment, but as she heads back out into the real world to host her show live, onstage, she's reevaluating the things she loves about podcasting and what she doesn't. The podcast (created as a result of COVID lockdown) is an extension of those public performances. Whether focused on solo or poly play, kinky or vanilla variations, communication remains Wild & Sublime's main thrust (sorry, not sorry: Karen's world is pun-heavy).  Pleasure, as you might imagine, is another theme of Karen's show. That's where we steer this conversation - back to the pleasure of podcasting. Sure, we all craft shows with listeners in mind but, ultimately, our podcasts are for us. So, let me ask you:  What about this medium is pleasurable to you?  What podcast tasks do you enjoy doing?  What gets you in the state of flow versus what feels like a chore? After two full seasons of weekly scheduled episodes, Karen's giving those questions more thorough review. She's already outsourced the tasks that slow her down (full disclosure: she's hired The Creative Impostor Studios to take pesky production to-dos off her plate), creating time to consider her format for the upcoming season.  So, now what? As with sex positivity, podcast positivity invites play; the only rules are the ones you create. Karen has discovered what she and her audiences love most. Now she's taking the time to take good care of her podcast.  Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at:  http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/podenvy088   CONNECT WITH KAREN YATES Wild & Sublime Podcast Instagram Karen Yates - Biofield Tuning sound therapy LISTEN TO WILD & SUBLIME S1E02 | Getting Laid During COVID: Long-Term Relationships S2E12 | COVID and Dating: FEB 2010 Update   I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Episode 087. "Paid podcast subscriptions in Apple and Spotify...Great idea for Apple and Spotify and for all those big fancy podcasters with tens of thousands of downloads and also for the networks. Awesome. Cool. Indie podcasters... Just keep doing your thing." ~Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss You've already heard the breaking news from a month ago, right? Apple Podcasts and Spotify are offering paid podcast subscriptions on a per show or per network basis. So theoretically you can easily earn a few bucks off your listeners if they LOVE your show enough to pay for it, or pay for it ad-free, or pay for early access, or pay for bonus content. Is this something you need to be paying attention to and jumping in on? My thoughts... in this episode! Also... Facebook getting into more "social audio experiences" a la Clubhouse?

Episode 086. "It's not worth trying to copy anybody. Do what you want to do, what you love...because podcasting takes a lot of work and if you're not loving it, it's not going to last." ~Lori L. Tharps Where does the inspiration to create a podcast arise from? How do you get over the learning curve? What happens when you want to change things up? And how do you know when it's time to quit?

Episode 085. "Sometimes I even think of the shows as, like, my children... like I'm co-parenting these shows and bringing them into the world... and trying to give them every opportunity possible to grow and to thrive and to reach their full potential." ~Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss At The Creative Impostor Studios and on Podcast Envy, we are all about the experience of podcasting. And that goes for the podcaster, the listener, the guests, the sponsors, the collaborative partners... Whoever is involved in the ecosystem of that podcast is a stakeholder and deserves to have an incredible experience! And continuing our mini-series on self-care and podcasting, I want to clarify that part of self-care is community care! It has a lot to do with the people who are around you and the relationships that you are in. And this directly applies to you as a podcaster... whether you are brining on a team, or service providers to support your show, or you are DIY-ing it, whether you are part of a larger organization, or you are self-employed. The relationships that you have matter a lot in terms of your overall health, happiness, and wellbeing. So how do you qualify those relationships that you have and whether they are supporting you or weighing you down in your podcast ecosystem? Ready for a health check? Listen to the episode for some anecdotal ideas on how to assess and why it matters.

Episode 084. "During the pandemic in the past year, there have been 3,800 reported incidents of anti-Asian violence, roughly 503 of which took place during 2021 alone." ~Reported in The Guardian We need to talk about something, which is this phrase that I keep hearing in my head over and over again, said by my friend, colleague, client, Sarah Buino, creator and host of Conversations With a Wounded Healer podcast. She said that we, as podcasters, are part of the media. That is why I want to take a moment here to specifically address topics around the March 2021 Gold Spa shooting in Atlanta, GA. I want to give you a few resources that I think do a great job of illuminating some of these different angles to this situation in a non-sensationalist way, promoting cultural dialogue about some things that maybe don't get talked about enough.

Episode 083. "Friction allows for a lot of growth if you're open to it." ~Pam Covarrubias Are you using your podcast for personal growth? Are you using it to help your listeners grow? This episode is part of our self-care for podcasters series, which is a companion to our “not your typical self-care” series over on The Creative Impostor. I recently had podcaster, conscious productivity coach, EFT practitioner, and founder of the PowerSisters Method, Pam Covarrubias on episode 125. And when I asker her how PowerSisters get matched, she brought up the idea of friction as a component to success and growth.  At first internally  I was like — EEK! No no no — when we build community we want to surround ourselves with like-minded individuals who align with our values and I started to get that old school day anxiety of being partnered up for a project with someone I didn’t like or didn’t know… But then... It really got me thinking about how friction applies to podcasting. And so Pam inspired this WHOLE episode of Podcast Envy. On one hand, I think podcasting is an EXCELLENT tool for personal growth for the show host, the listeners, and even guests. On the other hand, we have a huge “silo” problem in podcasting. Podcast hosts bring guests on the show who think like them to talk about topics they agree on from similar points of view and then share that conversation with an audience of people who also nod their heads in agreement and take notes. But where then, is the growth in that?  Still with me? Listen to the episode to get my 5 tips for inserting more functional friction into your process to help you make a better podcast.

Episode 082. “When I do an interview, I try to throw out any sort of expectations of the interview that I want to have, and really try to meet someone where they are in that moment, in that second.“ ~Kate Sullivan A pandemic can make you question all sorts of life and podcasting choices. Emmy Award-winning journalist Kate Sullivan offers up a solution: return to your why. Why do you care? As host of To Dine For, a multimedia celebration of ingenuity, hard work, and achievement told over food, Kate explores the universal motivator with her guests. Why do they do what they do? Why is this restaurant the location for the conversation (each guest gets to choose the place in which the interview takes place)? In crafting each episode, Kate’s reminded of her why: to tell inspiring stories over food.  Although To Dine For began as an idea for a tv series - now streaming via PBS and Amazon Prime - “the podcast started as my way of pivoting in the pandemic, of trying to create and continue to do what I love,” Kates says.  Peace, love & podcasting, Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss Hear more of my conversation with Cassandre over on the crossover interview for The Creative Impostor.

Episode 081. “This podcast, in a way, has become my self-care. I didn’t even realize that I would be, but it absolutely has been the thing that makes me happiest... just for me. “ ~Cassandre Dunbar Here’s a podcast truth that may feel a bit uncomfortable: the personal has never been more political. Allow my paraphrasing of the popular concept to seep under your protective layers for a moment while I explain. Podcasters, content creators, cultural influencers: we all have a responsibility to speak and respond to what’s happening in the world around us. To show up for ourselves and our communities an authentic manner.  Especially now. Even if our podcasts have nothing to do with social justice or politics.  Why wouldn’t we want to create content that improves society and adds value to the lives of our listeners! Honestly? Because doing so might be risky. Doing so might require going against the forces that have shaped our POV (family, community, followers). Doing so might require confronting an old nemesis: impostor syndrome. Cassandre Dunbar of Be Well, Sis is tackling many of those personal and political taboos with her approach to the self-care podcast - a format that can politely be described as lacking in diversity. Cassandre was driven to provide information with social context, giving women of color tools to counteract the effects of sustained trauma within their communities.   She views self-care as both a personal and community-based responsibility, individual therapy as a tool for addressing our country’s racial reckoning. “We can use it to look in the mirror and see all the things that have been done - that are being done - that are harmful, not only for the marginalized communities but, really, for the greater community too.” That’s how to use your platform socially, responsibly.  Peace, love & podcasting, Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss Hear more of my conversation with Cassandre over on the crossover interview for The Creative Impostor.

Episode 080. “The whole reason I love the solo episodes is because they're an opportunity to speak directly to your listener.“ ~Andrea Klunder On this episode, I'm answering a question which comes to us from a conversation that I was having with Kim Wensel from Pattern of Purpose Podcast. What do you think about solo episodes? Do I really have to do them?  And of course, no, you don't have to do anything technically, but what I said to her was that I am a HUGE FAN of solo episodes for podcasters, especially podcasters who are using their show to communicate their brand, to support their coaching or consulting business, to develop their own thought leadership and messaging, and to connect with potential clients and customers in their niche. Solo episodes are the best way to speak directly to your audience and make that intimate connection. Specifically, I encouraged Kim to KEEP doing solos in addition to her interviews. I love listening to Kim's solo episodes. They're insightful. I feel like I'm getting so much value for free from them and there are things I can directly apply into my own business practices. However... I changed my mind.

Episode 079. “I think that it really takes a lot of courage to be able to say, you know what? It doesn’t have to look like this; I don’t have to do it this way.“ ~Kelly Covert For many, ‘tis the season to feel less than despite all you’ve accomplished. The twelfth month generally triggers an inevitable flurry of to-do list exercises, goal-setting activities, and wholesale changes to every single habit you have -- just in time for the New Year.  Inner-voice coach, author, musician, and podcaster Kelly Covert has felt your pain. “I never felt good enough, even if I finished something or I accomplished something, I just, I never felt good enough.”  Kelly has since landed on the antidote. She quit goal-setting based on external expectations for her podcast, In Her Voice, and her life. Now, she’s purposeful about her intent, defining what success feels like to her as opposed to what it looks like to others. For podcasters tied to measuring show success by standard metrics alone, Kelly’s counsel might sound radical, even downright crazy.

Episode 078. “I wanted to have a platform where there could be messy conversations." ~Lisa Lackey, Insideout Conversations Question: What to do when your podcast is technically and thematically sound but… your engagement numbers could use some improvement? your show’s promotional voice doesn’t reflect your evolution as a podcaster? your strategy for reciprocal social media sharing, shout-outs, and tags is non-existent? Answer: You listen in (and take notes) while I perform pod-triage!  So, about our triage candidate. Lisa Lackey is a multi-hyphenate success. Co-founder of Insideout Living, an addiction and trauma healing center in Chicago, this licensed psychotherapist is a professional speaker, a group facilitator, an anti-racism consultant and trainer, relationship healer, and (you guessed it) a podcaster. So, about her show. Lisa created Insideout Conversations in 2018 as a safe space where messy conversations could take place. Since its inception, the podcast has enjoyed positive response and generated interest in Lisa’s services. It’s also happily outgrown the confines of her original vision. What began as a passion project has become a real professional asset. With that in mind, Lisa’s come to me not for wholesale renovation work, but for clear, actionable goals that she can accomplish—without sacrificing her other endeavors. Maximum impact with minimal messing around? Yes! It can be done!

Episode 077. “This is a pet peeve of mine, when hosts tell you in the intro all the things that you are about to hear in the interview, so that when you do hear it in the interview, it’s no longer fresh because you already told me about it in the intro." ~Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss Last week, I was driving down the road on a sunny day in my new-to-me Prius and I clicked on a podcast in my queue that I had been looking forward to dedicating an hour to —  a high profile show, on a major network, with a production team, and a celebrity host — a show I generally quite like depending on the guest. This episode I was PARTICULARLY excited to listen to because she had Gloria Steinem on the show and surprisingly Ms. Steinem has NOT been on a ton of podcasts as of late. So I was ready for an inspiring, thoughtful, fiery conversation and to my chagrin... Listen to the episode to find out what got my Podcast Boss hackles up about this interview!

Bonus episode! “Podcasting in those early days felt like rediscovering my own identity." ~Andrea Klunder This is my favorite thing I’ve ever created for other podcasters. I am inviting YOU to the founding cohort of the Podcast Envy Pro Pod! You maaaay have heard me mention it during the Podcast Angel segments on the past few episodes, but I want to give you a closer look inside to see if this might be right for YOU or another podcaster you may know (or maybe both!) You may or may not know (depending on how long you’ve been listening) that I started my podcasting career without a real plan. I had just closed my first business venture, a storefront yoga studio & spa in Chicago after a 5-year run. I was exhausted, bankrupt, and depressed. I wasn’t sure what to do but someone had planted the seed of podcasting and so little by little that seed started to germinate and eventually after a YEAR of research and digging through free (often outdated or misleading) online resources and learning how to record and edit… I hit submit in Apple Podcasts (then called iTunes) for my first show The Creative Impostor in 2015. And now, 5 years later, I have a growing, thriving business producing, editing, coaching, teaching and consulting on podcast strategy for other creative entrepreneurs, small business owners, and small to mid-size non-profit organizations. I’ve worked with people in sales, mental health and psychotherapy, education, distribution, opera, legal advocacy, holistic wellness, self-help, law, news & politics, recruiting, social justice, content marketing strategy, language, and more. On Podcast Envy, I’ve dug into the process of crafting a show that matters, and building community with more than 50 podcasters in different niches. Not to mention the thousands of hours of podcasts I’ve listened to, studying, analyzing, critiquing, and yes, sometimes (most times) even enjoying! I learn SO MUCH from talking with and listening to other people who make podcasts. And all this year, connecting with other podcasters about their strategies and perspectives and creative pivots has kept me motivated and hopeful for the future. Chances are if you have a business, or an organization, whether it’s your full-time pursuit or a side hustle, and you have a podcast (or want to have a podcast), I can come up with a dozen or more ways to make a show that works for you that you and your audience will love! What if you already have a show and a business? And it’s been going pretty alright? But you’re feeling stuck. Like there’s something you feel like you’re missing, or a hump you just haven’t gotten over. Maybe your audience growth is stagnant. Maybe you’ve got numbers but you’re not sure what they mean or how to translate that to engagement? Maybe you’re bored with your show? Maybe you’re just not sure what you’re making is good? Maybe you’re exhausted from trying to figure everything out all on your own! Now what if you could turn to a trusted group of creative professionals in different niches with different areas of expertise who were all podcasting right alongside you - who could understand your challenges AND offer insights, perspective, and possible solutions? What if you had a distraction-free place to share wins and get quick feedback on small questions that arise throughout the month — without worrying about competition, snide remarks, or sifting through a sea of conflicting and useless advice… or worse yet other coaches pitching their services to you? What if you had the opportunity to work directly with me to cut through the BS to clarify your focus for the months ahead? That’s exactly what I’m inviting you to be a part of with the Podcast Envy Pro Pod. Starting in January we’ll meet in real time once a month at everyone’s new favorite watering hole — Zoom. Each session will spotlight one member with a question, challenge or opportunity with their show for us to discuss and brainstorm solutions. Every 6 months, you’ll get a deep dive 1-on-1 coaching with me (first one starts at the beginning of the program to get your primed for 2021). This cohort is EXACTLY what I wish I’d had once I’d been podcasting for a while. It’s designed specifically for creative business leaders within any industry or niche with at least 6 months podcasting experience. We will not be covering the basics of "how to podcast," rather exploring deeper topics for which you can't just Google the answer or post in a Facebook Group. The application is available now at thecreativeimpostor.com/podcastenvypro  I’m taking application for about 2 weeks only until December 5 so that I can confirm your membership by December 10 and get started right away! I mean 2021 is right around the corner - why wait?! If you’re all in, go ahead and submit the application, there is a question at the bottom to request a short call with me to ask any lingering questions you may have. OR, if you prefer, we can talk first. Please schedule a call ASAP at thecreativeimpostor.com/teafor20 and indicate that you want to talk about Pro Pod membership. One more detail, when you join the pod and then refer another member, your second month of membership is free! Okay, enough nitty gritty details. Come with me! Let’s level up our podcasts together in the year ahead. I see big things in your future and I want to be there to celebrate with you when they happen.

Episode 076. “So, for people who are at podcast envy, stop envying and start doing." ~Debbie Arcangeles The odds of duplicating Debbie Arcangeles’ podcasting success appear to be on par with capturing a real, live rainbow unicorn. Her show, The Offbeat Life, started raking in dollars well before its first anniversary - to the tune of five figures a month - and hasn’t stopped since. So, what’s her secret?  Commitment over cosmic good fortune (although a profile over at Refinery29 didn’t hurt). Still, Debbie had to deliver if she wanted to capitalize on the unexpected press. “Every single day, I work, and that's the thing that you have to understand. I'm not necessarily better than you. I just work every single day. And I'm obsessed.” Proof that real, live people (not unicorns) reap well-earned rewards. Debbie’s masterclass, How To Create A Podcast, is a virtual launchpad for podcasters. In it, she guides participants through practical considerations and offers suggestions for monetizing a show. When asked if she wouldn’t mind sharing some of her favorite real-life strategies, she didn’t hesitate - and I’m happy to say there wasn’t a rainbow unicorn in the bunch.  Hear more about Debbie’s location-independent lifestyle and travel tales at the crossover episode she recorded for The Creative Impostor.

Episode 075. “You may be thinking… okay Andrea, that’s ridiculous! If you are deaf you obviously don’t listen to podcasts  — just like if you are blind you obviously don’t watch videos… except that’s not true, or at least that’s a very limited way to consider the question. And you are missing a whole segment of the population!" ~Andrea Klunder I just HAD TO pop into the feed with a long overdue bossy solo episode! Something just came up recently that took me into an impromptu research project and really got the wheels turning around marketing, growth and sustainability from a values based angle. Have you ever thought about making your show/ your content MORE accessible to MORE people?  Let me be more specific – have you ever thought about how someone who is deaf or hard of hearing may experience your podcast? So I decided to do a little research and compile what I am calling my best practices for inclusion of deaf and hard of hearing audience members. These recommendations are by no means exhaustive, nor have I even gotten so far as to implement all of these practices myself, but rather, I am offering this as a starting place for conversation around guidelines and best practices for this particular segment of the audience.

Episode 074. “I make this show because if you just boiled me down into a soup, I'm a storyteller." ~Adrien Behn Behind every podcast with a lush soundscape is a creator who’s spent hours extracting just the right notes from her recording of an ambient flute. Adrien Behn is that podcaster. As the voice and vision behind Strangers Abroad, she takes an exacting approach to her work. The result is ear candy for the pandemic-ly paused adventurer, a layered travelogue that speaks to the power of global connection on an intimate level. All of that pre- and post-production labor begs the question why do this?  In a media landscape packed with flawless content at the expense of realness, Adrien’s stylistic stories highlight rather than hide her vulnerability. She applies the same generosity of spirit to her show, reveling with her listeners in the unglamorous realities of travel and exposing the messy/beautiful process of growth that happens outside of the comfort zone.  Want more? Adrien’s crossover episode on The Creative Impostor is coming soon. Subscribe now for a “travels with my ex tale” that proves her fearlessness in real life as well as behind the mic.

Episode 073. “Don't give up, get creative. I'm staying sane. And if I can -- total shiny object syndrome -- then you can too. And yeah, don't be afraid to try new things, new podcasts." ~Lisette Austin So, what does a change of scenery look like to an award-winning travel-hacking podcaster? In a time of social upheaval? During a global pandemic? For Lisette Austin, aka Jet Set Lisette, that means staying the course. And, trying something new. Maybe…if/when she lands on the perfect encore to The Globetrotter Lounge, her podcast featuring “inspiring women who have found creative ways to travel more.” COVID has forced many creatives to reevaluate more than just their revenue streams. Inequalities highlighted by the social justice movement have prompted possible content shifts. And while the mileages may vary between individual podcasters, the results are the same: evolution at warp-speed. Lisette’s taking the trip in stride.  On staying the course. As a Black woman behind the mic in a field dominated by white (mostly male) faces, Lisette’s show has led the charge with a diverse roster of guests since the beginning.  On trying something new. Grounded travel podcasters are an antsy bunch. It’s no surprise, then, that months spent in one place have Lisette contemplating different show ideas, a new view in audio form. What is surprising is that she fleshed out some of her options in real-time on Podcast Envy!  Get the full show notes, and my favorite podcasting resources, at: http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/podenvy073   Podcast Angels: 10/1 - Launch Your Podcast Online Class Details & RSVP: http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/events Office Hours - Complimentary Coaching on Podcast Envy Apply for your complimentary coaching session to be recorded for a future episode of Podcast Envy: http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/officehours Rather pay for a private session?

Episode 072. “You're podcasting to make a difference and to have meaning in people's lives." ~Sarah Mikutel When you have two podcasts, you get to orchestrate your own crossover of sorts. And I’m in good company! My guest for this show (and an upcoming episode of The Creative Impostor) is fellow multi-podcaster Sarah Mikutel, the creator of Postcard Academy and Podcasting Step-By-Step. She’s also got a *secret* third show because overachiever...more on that pod later. When Sarah got down to planning both shows (and that secret third), she followed the wise counsel of podcasting goddess Elsie Escobar: create what you want to hear in the world. It’s advice Sarah applies to the evolution process as well, that freedom to tweak or make wholesale changes as her interests expand beyond a show’s original concept. I hear rumbles of concern out there. “What if some audience members don’t like the changes and drop off!?” Sarah says vanity metrics be damned! There are worse fates than producing a show you thoroughly enjoy listening to. Pre-COVID, she was busy enjoying her enviable expat life in England. Working overseas meant easy access to bucket list travel destinations - and numerous vacation days with which to explore them. What she didn’t have was the patience for endless blog scrolling or disappointing guidebook recs. So, she rolled the small amount of professional experience she’d gained at her job into Postcard Academy. Most recently, Sarah’s taken on the business side of her craft, offering insights and tutorials via Podcasting Step-By-Step. Where the travel show is a pure labor of love, ...Step-By-Step dovetails with her consulting service.  As for that *secret* third show… you’ll have to listen in to find out the intriguing, super-niche details!

Episode 071. “I've been really trying to work with people to shift that perspective that downloads numbers in podcasting are really not everything." ~Andrea Klunder Want to eavesdrop on a conversation between a Podcast Boss and her client? Yeah, you do! Welcome to the inaugural episode of Podcast Envy Office Hours, the series that answers all of those burning pod-process questions. Seriously, open your favorite notes app now because you’ll want to return to this advice as you develop, tweak, or just dream about your own show. Kristen Channel is a professional editor and copywriter. She’s also a lot like you: an avid pod-listener (she follows at least 75 shows) and nascent pod-creator. She’s got a pretty solid handle on my first rule of podcast creation - determine your why. A self-described multipotentialite*, Kristen envisions her interview-based show as an outlet for her wide-ranging curiosity. She’s especially interested in featuring like-minded women who have escaped society’s rigid specialization norms. Sounds awesome, right? But oh, those tasks between why and how! They can be real buzzkills without proper guidance, and a bit of cheerleading. That’s where Office Hours comes in. Kristen and I discuss the process of building a brand and attracting an audience - and you get to listen in! We’re talking seriously good bullet point-worthy information if this Podcast Boss does say so herself. *multipotentialite: a super-fun term used to describe someone with many interests and creative pursuits. It stems from the word multipotentiality–a psychological and educational term used to describe people who display aptitudes across multiple disciplines.

Episode 070. “We all have a part to play in these conversations that are going to be happening over the next however many years…  I think the hardest part is just figuring out what is my role to play in this discussion." ~Dion McGill Let’s talk about Black voices thriving in podcast spaces. Let’s talk about the politics of personal opinion and professional expectation. Let’s talk about candor as an ingredient for responsive content strategy. Let’s talk about those cringe-worthy MySpace years. OK, so maybe we’ll let that last one slide. Dion McGill has a lot to say about all of the above. His show Off The Beaten Podcast plays like a love letter to Chicago, a city often maligned by news outlets, social media, and politicians. Both home-grown narratives and national news are steeped in opinion, even when touted as unbiased. But is having a POV a bad thing? For a content pivot to be successful, the shift has to address current social justice issues (or the pandemic… or the presidential election… or killer wasps…or… ) with genuine interest and thoughtfulness – understanding that early attempts to do so won’t be perfect.

Episode 069. “You MUST use an online scheduling software — it is a PAIN to try to book with someone back and forth over email or DMs and with so many robust, reliable, user friendly options (even free ones) there’s really no excuse." ~Andrea Klunder I’ve got a super bossy solo episode for you all about booking podcast guests. This nuts & bolts deep dive topic was prompted by one of our community members and frankly, I see this come up often as a HUGE pain point for podcast hosts, especially those of us with businesses to run who just can’t spend a lot of time chasing people down, sending reminders, dealing with no shows… I have to admit, i’ve been pretty #blessed when it comes to booking guests for both Podcast Envy, and my other show The Creative Impostor because the type of guests I have on are pretty content marketing savvy and know the value of appearing on a well produced, expertly curated podcast. So what’s the secret? I’m going to walk you through the EXACT process, tools and boss tips I follow for booking podcast guests. Plus there's a bonus segment on podcast reviews... what are they good for?

Episode 068. “Don’t let that [technical] stuff frustrate you...Keep going...because that satisfaction of planning an episode, recording it and finishing it, even if no one else listens to it, if you are proud of it, that's just an immensely satisfying feeling.” ~Sarah Duncan Can a podcast that investigates history's secret sexy-times also be a resource for its listening community in tough times? In doing so, how does it stay true to its POV? And how the heck does a podcaster stay afloat without an outside sponsor or their own business/service to market? For Salacious History creator Sarah Duncan the answer to all of those questions (and more) is passion. Each episode is thoroughly researched by a team of...one. Edited and posted by a team of...one. Financially supported by a team of...You get where this is going. Without that passionate why, even a podcast about randy historical figures is in danger of losing steam.

Episode 067. “That’s why I love podcasting… it creates a whole new platform that I was a fan of before but now it’s just part of the way I do business.” ~Paul Reilly Do you love selling ?! Yeah, me neither.  Lucky for us, guest  Paul Reilly* does. Paul is the creator of The Q and A Sales Podcast a show that, unsurprisingly, answers questions about the art and business of selling. He’s also a prolific speaker, trainer, and author.  Here’s the thing: whether you podcast to gain clients or “just” to scratch a creative itch, you’re also selling something. A service. A product. An opinion about _insert your favorite pop culture reference here because I’m not going down a “This Is Us” rabbit hole_. That said, podcasters (and wannabes) can learn a lot from pro sales people - especially those with successful shows.  Prior to COVID-19, Paul hosted on average 120 in-person seminars around the country per year.  Considering lockdown restrictions have slashed approximately 70% from his income, you’d think Paul’s shift includes a hard-sell of his virtual offerings. Nope. Instead, he’s gone full-court free support, doubling up his episode and offering no-cost content access.  That community over clients approach stems entirely from Paul’s response to podcasting’s fundamental question: what is your why? (Seriously - you know how this podcast boss feels about that question!) *Paul Reilly is a valued client of The Creative Impostor Studios.    CONNECT WITH PAUL: Website The Q and A Sales Podcast LinkedIn Get the full show notes, resources, and links at: http://www.thecreativeimpostor.com/podenvy067   Podcast Angel: Craft & Culture  Craft & Culture is my exclusive membership space for both current and aspiring podcasters to get the support you need to create and grow your show in a way that is nurturing, genuine and enjoyable.
