How do I grow my podcast? How do I grow my business? 

They seem like good questions, but in reality, they’re a bit open-ended… hard to define. What does “grow” even mean? 

I’m doing something totally different in this bonus episode!

This month is all about COLLABORATION on the Content with Character podcast and in the name of collaboration, I wanted to share this powerful takeaway from a fellow podcaster and collaborator, ...

Underplaying the gift and opportunity of being a guest, their lack of preparation translates into less impact and being just a tad uh, underwhelming.

I can overthink, outthink, rethink, and retroactively think my way into anything BUT momentum. 

Can you relate? If so, this episode is for you!

You can't (and don't need to) keep up with everyone you meet at the same level or frequency. Not all feedback is equal feedback and your marketing doesn't translate to every last person you interact with. 

Your business isn't relevant to everyone. 

But that doesn't mean some people are more valuable than others or deserve to be discounted. Everyone you meet and interact with is part of a beautiful...

In a world full of loud opinions, tearing people down, judging, and polarization... 

It doesn't always exactly feel "safe" to contribute your thoughts and ideas. I've held myself back many times on a comment, or speaking up with an idea because I didn't feel safe sharing my viewpoint or belief. 

You can choose to do things differently.

What’s really behind our creative blocks? 

Are you actually "blocked" or is there a truth trying to make its way out and give you a message? 

Sometimes what looks like procrastination, resistance, boredom, and blocks is really your inner self raising its hand to deliver a message.

You’re not broken, you don’t need fixing. You just need to listen to what the blocks might be telling you. 

In this episode, we explore...

Were you sick of social media, uh, long before yesterday!? 

I'm not alone in the sentiment that modern social media is problematic in a lot of ways. But... don't worry, this episode isn't completely bashing social media! 

I'm showing the value in it as I encourage you to keep going, even when you don't feel like it or don't feel like it's working for your business.

Do you feel stuck shouting into the void? 

Trapped in comparison? 

Drowned out by the noisy online space?

There have been plenty of times I haven't trusted my gut. In life and business. Sometimes ignoring it has me chasing a shiny object... sometimes it leads me to think I need to change everything NOW...
