Podcasting seems simple, right? Just a mic, some recording, and maybe fame follows. But there's a reality here that most people miss. Drawing on my journey since 2018, I share the grit behind the grind, the hours spent speaking to an audience that wasn't there yet, and the highs and lows of building momentum. It wasn't until years in that I climbed the charts and saw meaningful signs of success. And while I love the craft, podcasting comes with its unique set of challenges: constant self-doubt, pressure to stay consistent, and facing down the ever-present numbers game. This is a raw, honest look at what it truly takes to make it as a podcaster.

Rolling back to his feet, the large man shook off the charred remains of his shirt. As it fell to the ground, it revealed the burns covering the man's torso. Blood dripped from the wounds, staining the dirt at his feet. The tension grew, with the crowd falling silent as they were entranced in the spectacle. The audience watched on as the large man roared and charged forward, his hammer raised high. The Swordsman Hero met him head-on, his swords dancing in a flurry of strikes that clanged against the massive hammer. Each blow sent shockwaves through the arena, dust rising from the impact of metal on metal.   Deep gratitude to David for sharing his time with us!

When you're just getting started on your subscription box journey, it can be hard to imagine yourself successfully managing a thriving subscription. That's when you need to seek inspiration from someone just a few steps ahead of you. Kathy Strahs from The Awayday Box is just that person.   Kathy was inspired to provide moms like her - burnt out and depleted from all the past few years have thrown at them - with a truly special, self-care experience. She had no subscription box experience and no audience. What she did have was passion, determination, and - thanks to Launch Your Box - a roadmap to follow to get her where she wanted to be.  Kathy dug into the training inside Launch Your Box and implemented what she learned. And when she ran into something that threatened to stop her progress - hello, tech - she got the help she needed and kept moving forward.  After 90 days of building her audience and getting all the things ready behind the scenes, Kathy was ready to launch. She sold out on day one of her launch with 46 subscribers - an amazing result considering she truly started from scratch!  Kathy didn't have subscription box experience, but like all of us, she had a lot of other work and life experience. And as she started working toward launching her subscription box, she found out just how valuable all of that experience was. Kathy had:  Retail experience - high school job at a Hallmark store.  Business knowledge and experience - MBA from Stanford.  Marketing - work in affiliate and partnership marketing.  Social media and content creation - experience as a blogger and early adopter of social media platforms.  Publishing - author of four cookbooks.  Kathy drew from all of her work and life experiences to bring her subscription box to her subscribers. From a part-time high school job to business school to publishing cookbooks - it all applied. And Kathy is her own ideal customer - so everything about her life applied!  What experiences do you have that you can bring to your subscription box business? Past jobs, educational experiences, life experiences… look for what you've learned that you can bring to your subscription box business. And get ready to be surprised by how much you already know!  Join me for this episode as Kathy takes us through her journey from absolute subscription box newbie to selling out on day one of her launch!  Find and follow Kathy:  Awayday on Instagram Awayday on Facebook  Awayday Website Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website  Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

Innovation comes in many areas and compliance professionals need to not only be ready for it but embrace it. One of those areas is telehealth and telemedicine. My guest in this episode is Ann Gynn, a content creator specialist. Ann Gynn is a seasoned content entrepreneur with a rich journalism, marketing, and public relations background, currently serving as the editor at The Tilt and the Creator Content Entrepreneur Expo (CEX). Gynn's perspective on "content entrepreneurship: balancing creation and business operations" is rooted in her belief that content entrepreneurs can build their audience and run their own media companies, independent of traditional mainstream media outlets. She emphasizes the importance of creating content and focusing on the business side of entrepreneurship, such as marketing, growing an audience, and monetizing the content. Gynn believes that many content creators make the mistake of spending too much time on content creation and not enough on marketing and business operations, and she offers resources and services through The Tilt to help them navigate and succeed in this aspect. Join Tom Fox and Ann Gynn on this episode of the Innovation in Compliance podcast to delve deeper into this topic.
