1 - This is from Tom Webster at Sounds Profitable, episode is #450 “Better Podcast Marketing and The Curiosity Gap” - And you should go listen to it because Tom lays it out better in 9 minutes than I will here. When you tell someone about your show (or write your show description) or post on social, are you igniting the curiosity of the human you are speaking with?
2 - Open your calendar. This one was inspired by Shannon Weinstein from Keep What You Earn. Episode 683 - The Best Way to Get Out of a Business Funk.
Go to your calendar. Ask how you can redesign your schedule to optimize for more energy-efficient time management — or as I would say, allow for more flow?
3 - Get honest with yourself and your team (if you have one.) What is the ONE thing you want your podcast to help you do in the next 12 months?
Megan Dougherty from The Company Show has created a framework that outlines 5 primary show blueprints based on what they are designed to do.

I'm here with some disheartening news. Here it is…
Podcasting doesn't work.
Now, before you throw up your hands and click to the next thing in your feed, before you swipe on by, before you get defensive… let me tell you how I’ve come to this conclusion.
This episode was originally recorded as a live stream, and then edited as a podcast episode for Podcast Envy. You can catch future streams and join the discussion by following me on Instagram @thecreativeimpostor, LinkedIn @andreaklunder, or YouTube @thecreativeimpostor.
Do you disagree? Then prove me wrong! Tell me how podcasting IS working for your organization, business, company, or brand.

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, was 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 WON in 2 different award categories -
Best Music Show - Bronze
Best Diversity Equity and Inclusion Episode - Silver
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.
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.
Thank you to everyone for your support this year!
We are so proud to be recognized among the industry's best in class audio experiences.
But more importantly, excited to have this platform to generate more visibility for the podcast, the voices, and the stories that are highlighted through this collaborative work. I would love if add Key Change to your listening queue and let me know what you think! It’s about so much more than opera.

Thank you for listening (and voting!) We’ll talk again soon.

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? Listen to the episode to find out!

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;

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. Seriously.
But wait, there’s more, including Karen’s number one tip for better hosting, but you’ll have to check out the episode to get it!
Get the FULL masterclass replay with Karen & me! https://www.thecreativeimposter.com/beanawesomehost
You know that hosting a podcast is so much more than just plugging in a mic and tapping into your gift of gab! But how do you level up so that your podcast shines?
We also cover:
- Insight into Karen’s pre-production, production, and post-production processes when creating Wild & Sublime
- How she sets her guest up for success each and every time
- Facilitating smooth, engaging panel discussions (Karen’s signature episode style)
- Voice acting and self-care tips
- How to work with your editor to create a system of communication that helps them read your mind, even if that editor is yourself
- How I think about my relationship with YOU!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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?”

Rather than scaling back, you may want to DOUBLE DOWN on your podcast this year. Wait, what?
Consider what’s on your listeners’ minds — inflation, interest rates, food prices, rent prices, gas prices, supply chain shenanigans — and then provide them with the resources that help them through this economic cycle.

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?

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.

If you think everyone spent their "wfh" time dreaming up new podcasts, you’re right. There are fresh sources for entertainment, investigative reporting, and niche pursuits everywhere you listen.
As a podcast strategist, however, I’ve noticed one concept that has flourished over the last 18 months: the purpose-driven podcast.

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.

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? Twitter and LinkedIn too I guess.
Social audio experiences...What does this phrase conjure up for you?

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?
All of this and more from Lori L. Tharps, author, educator, and podcaster.
Hear the evolution of Lori's show, My American Meltingpot, and what's coming next. Lori says, "It really is just going to be a kind of a literary love fest for multicultural stories!" And she couldn't be happier.

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.
Peace, love & podcasting,

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.

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,

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.
Peace, love & podcasting,
Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss

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. In essence, though, she’s reconnecting your final product to your creative process.
Coupled with practices like worthiness reminders and a quarterly desire process, both outlined in her new The Enoughness Planner, Kelly’s helping others rediscover their creative why and revel in their enoughness.
For more insight into developing kinder habits for yourself and your show, check out my crossover interview with Kelly for The Creative Impostor.

Do you LOVE Podcast Envy? What's your fave episode? What have you learned? What mistakes have I saved you from making with your show?

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!
Peace, love & podcasting,
Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss

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!

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!

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!)

Episode 066. “I think there's a ton more opportunities for people to raise their voice, to speak up, to really show up for whatever cause it is that moves them.” ~Pam Covarrubias
Two things I learned from my conversation with Pam Covarrubias of the podcast Cafe con Pam. One: No one said your pivot had to be a tidy 180º. Two: Replace hustle and grind with grace and compassion; you'll tap into reservoirs of creativity, connection, and productivity.
As an ex-corporate brand strategist, current business and productivity coach, community-maker, recovering procrastinator, and popular LatinX podcaster, Pam has proven those lessons. Often simultaneously. Never without enhancing her ability to connect.
Over a hundred episodes later, Cafe con Pam (like the rest of us) has found itself during a pandemic. So what's an entrepreneur with dozens of episodes recorded pre-COVID-19 to do? She placed those shows on hold and began recording new interviews with a more immediate focus. A sound pivot.
She also committed to showing up more often for her audience. Another solid choice in a time of crisis. Then Pam opted to introduce her audience to EFT* or tapping on her podcast and IG Live. Spoiler alert: Pam's audience needed her to show up precisely as she did and continues to do.
Lessons learned.

Episode 065. “We will lose something very, very fundamental to what it is to be human if we start interacting solely online.” ~Adela Mizrachi
Want an inspiring story about the power of personal passion coupled with organic audience growth? Excellent because we’re talking six continent expansion!
Looking to add just one more podcast to your queue? Great! Podcast Envy is about to tumble down the glorious rabbit hole that is Podcast Brunch Club, a “little weird project” Adela Mizrachi created in 2015 as a way to get together with like-minded listeners (as opposed to creators) for food, conversation and podcast camaraderie.
Today, the book club for podcasts boasts 80 chapters around the globe and has recorded close to 100 of its own episodes - all in just five years.
With the pandemic shuttering restaurants and drastically limiting gatherings, in real life feels like a foreign concept now. The pause is giving Adela time to consider ways of finally monetizing her highly successful “little weird project”. In the meantime, she spends her free time working on the PBC podcast and its social media.
“I think the beauty of Podcast Brunch Club is giving everybody else a voice and giving everybody else the space to talk to each other.” Eventually, in person and with waffles.

Episode 064. “In order to change your life, you have to change. Your life is not going to change so that you can change. You have to change so that your life can change...It's simple, but it ain't easy.” ~Joan Sotkin
When you talk about having “podcast envy,” your mind may wander to your podcasting mentors -- those whose shows have inspired you to want to get on the mic more than anything!
Joan Sotkin is a self-described new age-y weirdo (and one of my podcasting mentors) -- who knows how to deliver unflinching advice about money. In her nearly 80 years of life, Joan’s mastered the art of expressing herself exactly as she is.
Her podcast, The Prosperity Show, is one of the first I ever discovered as a listener, and just in time to help guide me through navigating bankruptcy after closing my first business -- and starting over again.
On the show, Joan discusses concepts like quantum healing or intuition as engines for financial freedom. As she’s fond of saying, whether there’s too little or too much of it (!!), if you’ve got a problem with money, your issue is not about money.
What if that philosophy were applied to all of the creative shifts whirling around right now? Sure, there’s a gigantic external force at play, but what if COVID-19 only exposed the cracks we’d chosen to ignore?
When asked to offer some advice on pandemic podcasting pivots, Joan responded with her trademark straight-talking, new age-y candor. “Don’t try to be like anyone else. Have faith that, if people hear what you have to say and they really like what you're offering, you'll get ideas for making money.”
She urges creators to take advantage of the pandemic’s ambiguous timetable, to sit still and reexamine their core motivations rather than mimicking the wholesale changes others have rushed toward. “When you learn to accept what is, you learn to be satisfied.” Then you can make meaningful and even prosperous moves.

Episode 063. “I’ve been thinking of responsibility as response-ability, that I have the ability to respond and what do I want to do with that?" ~Candice Wu
I've fallen asleep on Candice Wu more times than I can remember. That's a compliment, by the way, a testament to The Embody Podcast's content and, yes, Candice's voice.
There's no napping here, though!
Instead, our chat is filled with Candice's generous wit and insight. We talk podcasting in general and, more specifically, discuss what her response-ability is to her audience at times of crisis or global social change within the context of her own show.
Like when a commenter questioned her overwhelmingly white guest list.
The Embody Podcast explores the multiplicities that make us human and the practices that reconnect us to those aspects of ourselves.
Candice allows her vulnerability to sit in the space of each episode. It's a humbling experience, one she says she owes her audience - to listen, learn, and question along with them in real-time. Even now.
Especially now.
P.S. The episode we reference in this episode about Candice's personal experiences with racial prejudice is 123: A{Live} Now: Racism is in the body, BLM + Hidden Race Wounds

Episode 062. "Some people use a microphone so they can speak into the mic and hear themselves talk, but I do the podcast because I genuinely love it. Emails that I receive or social media messages I receive of how it can help people during this time and seeing people feel low or get sick or lose family members -- how could I not be there?" ~Monica Rivera
Monica Rivera is a favorite guest here at The Creative Impostor Studios. Launched in 2017, her podcast You Wanna Do What? boasts over 100 episodes and fans around the globe. Not content with simply broadcasting strategies her listeners can employ to want more, do more, be more, Monica also offers consultant services to help would-be podcast creators become polished pros. Oh, and she holds down a full time day job in analytics. And delivered a popular TED Talk about "The Flipside of Loneliness."
Monica’s pedigree translates into a hefty workload under normal circumstances. With the virus adding additional stressors to everyone’s life, I thought it time to check in with this prolific creator and Jersey City resident. What effect has lockdown had on her podcasting POV and what shifts does she think the industry will make once pandemic restrictions are lifted?

Episode 061. I didn’t have the words so I’m borrowing these shared by community members in She Podcasts.
We stand with our sisters from the WOC Podcasters led by Danielle Desir and crafted by Tangia Renee.
Their words below:
PODCASTERS FOR JUSTICE CAMPAIGN
Collectively, we have built engaged audiences that listen to our voices regularly, and with coordinated effort, we can combine OUR voices to take a STRONG stance against racism and police brutality.
We serve many audiences, but we can speak with one voice. One voice that does not mince words and demands justice.
We created this simple PSA for podcasters or any content creator to post and share in hopes that we can come together across digital spaces to support the work of activists on the front lines of change, who risk themselves daily to create a better world for us all.
Please join us in using your voice to take a stand and encourage action at this critical time by issuing the following statement on your podcast or other digital platform(s):
We are (podcasters/bloggers/youtubers/influencer/etc.) united to condemn the tragic murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and many many others at the hands of police. This is a continuation of the systemic racism pervasive in our country since its inception and we are committed to standing against racism in all its forms.
We believe that to be silent is to be complicit.
We believe that Black lives matter.
We believe that Black lives are more important than property.
We believe that we have a responsibility to use our platforms to speak out against this injustice whenever and wherever we are witness to it.
In creating digital media we have built audiences that return week after week to hear our voices and we will use our voices to speak against anti-blackness and police brutality, and we encourage our audiences to be educated, engaged, and to take action.
Suggested Action Steps

Episode 060. "As a host of a show if you really want to have longevity, you start handing the things over that you don't particularly enjoy about the process to others who can do it much better than you can... and really focus in on what do [you] love and what do [you] do best." ~Jason Bader
Ready. Set. Go, now and future podcasters! This one’s part primer, one part pep talk.
Jason Bader is a longtime client of yours truly and host of Distribution Talk, the show that dives into the stories of business owners and thought leaders in the wholesale distribution space. Now that I have your attention…
Seriously though, Jason has a talent for taking this relatively mundane topic and making it interesting. As niche as the distribution field may sound, consider that getting products from a manufacturer into the hands of consumers makes up approximately 26% of the GDP in the US alone.
Jason shares his views on all the (podcast) things: Download numbers! Outsourcing tasks! Startup equipment costs! Sponsorship goals! With the added bonus of honest insight into his struggle to book guests outside his comfort-zone and advice on what to do in the midst of those sometimes awkward rabbit-hole conversations.
Distribution is a niche field for sure but Jason’s wisdom is crossover listening!

Episode 059. "Part of what I love about clothes is it can be an escape because there’s definitely an element of fantasy and aspiration to clothing and getting dressed and expressing ourselves in our style. And then there’s also the practicality of how do you look good on a zoom meeting call, and how do you show your personality and dress and be professional when you can only be seen from like the armpits or shoulders up?" ~Holly Chayes
Podcast Envy is jumping into a new series of pandemic podcasting pivots. We kick it off in conversation with Holly Chayes, stylist, wardrobe consultant, and creator of Talking About Clothes with Holly Chayes, the show in which she...well, she talks about clothes with the people who wear them.
Anyone who’s sat for a Zoom meeting in a freshly-laundered shirt and last week’s pajama bottoms as of late would be forgiven for thinking the pandemic has thrown a wrinkle (I couldn’t resist) into Holly’s content - not to mention her publishing timeline.
Yes and no. A seasoned podcast pro since January 2020 (yes, you read that correctly), Holly’s sense of self as it relates to her show is refreshing. She’s not overly concerned with the statistics or “rules”.
Content angles vary right now as people’s attention spans waffle between hyper-productivity and warranted laziness. Holly’s had to adjust to her Plan B as shelter-in-place orders force people to lean into different aspects of their wardrobe personality. There’s no one to dress for, nowhere to go. So, she’s postponed pre-pandemic recorded episodes in favor of examining a past project through the “new normal” lens.
As for publishing “on time”...what does that even mean? Talking About Clothes posts in seasons, not unlike fashion itself. There’s genuineness to her strategies, basic podcast math that can turn an idea into a listenable show: know what you’re creating + why you’re creating it.
For someone who’s podcast was a scant three months old when the future suddenly arrived, Holly’s not overly concerned about how her show will work after lockdown. She’s content to let these complicated times just be complicated and looking forward to breaking her own show rules in upcoming seasons.

~Tina Conroy, The Intuitive Woman Podcast
Yes, things have gotten shaken up. I am genuinely grateful for my health, my family's health, my friends, my clients, and for podcasting.
I have been busy over here releasing more content than usual and my other show, The Creative Impostor. We've been doing a series on how creative entrepreneurs in different niches have been pivoting, adjusting, taking care of their businesses, and of themselves through all of this global crisis.
AND I am just celebrating 100 episodes over there, which is huge!
I have been so grateful for my show as the central structure around which I've been orienting my weeks.
Podcast Envy is not just about how to make a podcast, but it's also about the culture of podcasting, and I wholeheartedly believe there has never been a better time for podcasting.
If you already have a show, a following, an audience, a community, they need you right now more than ever.
And if you have been putting off launching a NEW show, I say if you have the time, the resources, the head space, and you are crystal clear on WHY you want to create this show, this very well could be the perfect time to start.
Thank you to Tina Conroy of The Intuitive Woman Podcast and Ivy Summer of Plan Your Wedding Like a Pro for lending your thoughts to Podcast Envy!

Episode 057. “You have chosen to be here. And you have chosen to be here for a reason. I mean you could have picked anything... but you chose podcasting.” ~Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss
I was draaaaagging my feet on creating a "Launch Your Podcast" online course. I couldn't even record episode 1.
And then I realized... I'm Your Podcast Boss. I don't have to do anything I don't want to do.
So instead of trying to figure out how to motivate myself to create something I clearly didn't want to create, I turned the inquiry around on myself to find out WHY I wasn't inspired.
BUT, if you are WANTING to learn how to podcast from me, don't worry. I'm not going to leave you hanging...
Let's start with this:
1) What is the change that you want to make?
2) How can you do this in your own best possible way?
I really want to know! Email me: andrea@thecreativeimpostor.com

Episode 056. “I am looking for more speaking and teaching gigs nowadays and so it’s been this "pose yourself as an expert" sort of thing. And, also, it’s just been a vehicle for me to talk to cool people.” ~Sarah Buino, Conversations With a Wounded Healer
The new year comes preloaded with bold plans. That’s doubly true when the calendar hits a milestone; even the tiniest ideas get a jolt from the magnifying power of 2020 party glasses.
Have you finally decided to start that podcast? Are you thinking about supporting your current podcast with a Patreon page? Ready to create a new Instagram profile for your show or nurture a marketing plan that’s gone stale? Haven’t got a clue where to begin or what to focus on?
Relax. You don’t have to figure everything out all at once. In fact, you don’t even need to have it all figured out after 70+ shows as this episode’s guest will attest. You just have to start.
Sarah Buino, LCSW, CADC, is one of those people who stands in the full wattage of her abilities. As a therapist, Sarah interviews people for a living. It’s no surprise then that her talent for leading meaningful discussions in her day job is what makes Conversations With a Wounded Healer, the podcast she hosts and I edit, such an engaging listen. She dives into topics with a combination of curiosity, humor, and vulnerability. Guests can’t help but follow her into the deep end.
Conversation comes naturally to Sarah but that’s not to say podcasting is easy for her. After all, there’s more to launching and maintaining a show than chatting into the mic.
Much of the technical work needed to turn a recording into a podcast is made up of tasks that Sarah has no interest in learning. But, you need to hear this right now as you contemplate starting your own show in 2020: the things she didn’t want to know didn’t stop her from starting her podcast.
So...it can be done! What “it” is up to you. Put on some 2020 party glasses and take a good listen to Sarah Buino and I (yes, those glasses can amplify sound). There’s a lot of wisdom in this episode and it’s bound to get you excited about your podcasting new year.

Episode 055. “Something that I’ve noticed with milestones... is that there’s a feeling of never enough-- never enough downloads; there are never enough episodes; there’s never enough content. And, at times, it can feel like a hamster wheel. And I think there’s a lot of pressure to continue producing content every week.” ~Melissa Guller, Everything is Teachable & Book Smart
Happy end of the year, end of the decade, podcast listeners! As the days wind down, I thought this the perfect time to discuss milestone episodes.
To be totally honest with you, I hadn’t given the topic much thought until the incredible Sarah Buino, host of Conversations With A Wounded Healer (and one of my clients) asked if I had any suggestions for marking her 100th episode.
Ok then! Time to commence thinking about milestones! But where to start?
Listen, hitting publish on your first episode is just as much a milestone as posting your hundredth so don’t let numbers put you off. I chatted with several podcasters whose interpretations of what constitutes a milestone vary.
Their advice, though, is essentially this: there’s no right or wrong way to mark your big achievement -- even if that means choosing not to acknowledge your show’s milestone at all.
Featuring: David Hooper, Julie Neale, Robyn Conley Downs, Melissa Guller, Dave Jackson, and Jen Riday.

Episode 054. “They sold you this microphone saying that it had 'everything you needed inside the box to get started,' and they gave you that crappy little microphone stand.” ~Your Podcast Boss
Black Friday, Cyber Monday… you are probably super busy tooling around the internet looking for the best deals on podcasting gear… I know you have heard me say so many times in the past that it's not about the microphone -- the success of your show, the quality of your show is so not about the microphone. And I'm going to kind of take that back a little bit.
Gear is important.
You are doing something that requires gear, that requires equipment, that requires a tool to get your message your thought leadership, your ideas, your insights, your wisdom, your incredibly amazing conversations with other people out into the earbuds of listeners everywhere.
I have used a lot of different audio gear of different levels and different qualities over the years of podcasting. I have helped many, many podcasters to get their own shows started and to improve the quality of their shows. I have listened to so many podcasts. I listen to podcasts like it's my job. Well, it kind of IS my job. What a cool job!
And I have recorded in so many different recording environments, different spaces with different people and different speakers. And here is one place where I am going to draw the line.
Ready for a Podcast Boss rant?
“Well, if you are too far away from your microphone, you ARE the ambient noise.” ~Your Podcast Boss

Episode 053. “Just to have any amount of validation and that well received-ness, that makes you try the next thing with a little less fear that I think it’s really cool and wonderful.” ~Karolyn Blake
Twenty (or so) minutes. Seven guests. One question:
What has podcasting done for you?
I asked because there are many conversations about what we get from listening to podcasts. But what are the benefits of creating a podcast? Sitting on this side of the mic and talking to our virtual audience?
In answering, my guests and I shared lots of laughs, served up dozens of great quotes, and unanimously agreed on a single truth: What you get out of podcasting is greater than what you put in to it.
Don’t believe me? Well, I’ve got back up.
This episode was recorded live at the 2019 Southgate Media Group Podcast Marathon and features insight and advice from:
Ansel Burch & Karolyn Blake, two members of the Starlight Radio Dreams network;
Angela DeMarco and Jamie Black from the Icky Lousy Junky Life Showdown is a podcast for anyone who’s ever made a bad life choice;
Molly, Martha & Rob Southgate of Southgate Media Group, who have been podcasting for half of Molly's life!
“Even if you’re like, ‘I have no idea what I want to do, but I know I can talk,’ do it because it’s a wonderful thing. It’s a way to communicate your ideas like no other...Just go for it. Walk off the cliff. It’s really not as scary as you think.” ~Rob Southgate

Episode 052. Happy Halloween -- one of my favorite times of year!
I love haunted houses and spooky decorations and hot Apple cider. Also, being a former theater kid, I love. Costumes, stage, makeup, playing a role, pretending to be someone or something you are not. It's an opportunity to do things outside of the norm for you to behave in a different way. Heck, maybe even to use a different voice when you speak
You may be thinking, what do tarot cards have to do with Halloween? And more importantly, what do they have to do with podcasting?
One of my favorite childhood Halloween costumes was that of fortune teller -- I've always been fascinated by the possibility of one being able to see the future or at least be able to see things that most people cannot.
Of course, tarot cards may not actually be about telling the future, but I do like to use the cards as a tool for contemplation -- to help me see what I otherwise might not have about a certain situation.
So at some point I had the idea to do this in relation to my podcast, because sometimes, and if you've been doing this podcasting thing a while, I think you might agree podcasting can get lonely.
So how do you find the fortitude to keep going?
And when you come to a fork in the road, how do you know which path to take? A tarot card spread may be just the thing to help guide you, and I did just that for this show.
Want to hear what I pulled? What it means for YOU? And how to get your own reading for YOUR podcast?
All that and more in today's episode!

Episode 051. “I think it’s like improv. You’ve given us prompts and we play and it’s a lot of “yes, and…” in terms of our conversation.” ~Andrea Fellows Walters
Andrea Fellows Walters and Brandon Neal, co-hosts* and co-creators of Key Change, a podcast from the Santa Fe Opera, are two of my favorite people to work with. They’re as funny and engaging as you’d expect. Now that I think about it, you probably weren’t expecting that from opera podcasters…
Before you switch off, this episode is not about opera per se. It’s about how an opera podcast found its voice.
There are, at the very least, two takeaways in it for you:
Takeaway #1 - If you’re thinking about building a podcast for your organization, brand, or community, Key Change offers a brilliant example of how to craft and maintain a compelling voice within the confines of and in step with a larger institution.
Takeaway #2 - If you’re considering working with a producer or you have no idea what a producer does (and, therefore, unclear as to why you’d need one), Andrea and Brandon detail the client-side of this relationship and discuss ways in which the collaboration made their show better.
Bonus Takeaway #3 - There’s a RuPaul reference. In an opera/not opera podcast.
A little background. Key Change was created to tell the myriad stories behind Opera For All Voices (OFAV), an initiative devoted to new works co-commissioned and co-produced by the consortium of North American opera companies. I was hired by Andrea and Brandon to produce the show.
Since our first meeting a couple of years ago, we’ve interviewed dozens of people, gone through hundreds of Post-Its, and successfully completed two multi-episode seasons.
So how’d I do as a producer? Andrea and Brandon give me an on-air eval.
*As of this episode of Podcast Envy, Brandon Neal has left Santa Fe Opera to pursue a new role at The Juilliard School in New York. We are so proud and will miss him so much!

Episode 050. “I said I would never do a live event... doing it live -- I would never do another podcast at home in my jammies if I didn't have to. THIS is everything! I love the give and take. I love seeing people's reactions. There's nothing to me that compares to having that interaction.” ~Martha Southgate, Southgate Media Group
Question: What happens at a live podcasting event? 1) You experience performing your show in front of an audience.
2) You make connections with other podcasters.
3) You meet existing fans and make new ones.
4) You learn something new about your show or your audience.
5) You have FUN!
6) You make money... maybe.
Martha and Rob Southgate are the co-founders of Southgate Media Group, which started with a vision to make podcasts that are interesting, entertaining and informative for the whole family.
In this highly entertaining interview, recorded LIVE of course at the first ever Women in Podcasting Festival in Chicago 2018, Martha and Rob shared with us about their passion for live events and podcast marathons, where the insights come from (Rob likes to take looong walks to encourage his inner voice to chime in), and how to tackle the business side of podcasting (and no, it's not about getting sponsors for your show...)

Episode 049. "It’s a lot easier than I expected to get people to talk to you for a podcast… I majored in journalism as an undergrad and I remember trying to get people to let me interview them for a story. For some reason, people are way more responsive for this [podcasting] medium."
~Stacy Massey, host of How's Business? from the Institute for Justice Clinic on Entrepreneurship
Question: What do podcasting, non-profit work, and local entrepreneurship have in common?
Pick One:
a) They exist despite time & budget constraints
b) They require mad organizational skills & scrappiness
c) They’re fulfilling endeavors, not get-rich-quick scheme
d) All of the above
Answer: Yeah, it’s all of the above.
Stacy Massey, formerly of the Institute for Justice Clinic on Entrepreneurship (aka IJ Clinic), joined me in the Podcast Envy studio (live! exciting!) for a dive into the d) end. Our all of the above conversation is packed with tips from Stacy and lessons she learned at the helm of How’s Business?, IJ Clinic’s mission-driven podcast.
Like most non-profits (and podcasts), a majority of Chicago’s small businesses operate in the d) end; think the massage therapists, street vendors, and one-truck moving companies delivering vital services to our communities at razor-thin margins.
Enter IJ Clinic. Their volunteers - law students from the University of Chicago Law School - provide the city’s low-income entrepreneurs with free legal services. How’s Business? was created to give a literal voice to those local entrepreneurs, documenting how this city’s policies affect their ability to earn a living.
If your contemplating starting a show for your organization, this episode is a great example of the power of podcasting. How’s Business? has extended IJ Clinic’s reach and amplified its message, something I think the medium was born to do.

Episode 048. "We must create content that matters so much to the people who are listening that they will pay for what they can get for free."
Laura Walker, former CEO WNYC Studios @ Podcast Movement
The morning after Podcast Movement 2019 in Orlando, Florida, I had an idea for what I hope will be an ongoing wonderful series of behind-the-scenes podcasts specifically for VIP Circle members -- a little more unpolished, a little bit more raw -- which makes me so nervous to say that because I really pride myself on having very professional sounding, very polished episodes.
So I recorded, sitting on the balcony outside of my Airbnb room, all of my deepest insights and some questions that came up for me about the craft and culture of podcasting. So this is a preview of episode 001 of what I am calling Craft & Culture BTS with Podcast Envy, exclusively for my Patreon supporters of $5 (or more) per month.
On episode 47 of Podcast Envy, my advice for how to win at podcast conferences was to choose one thing to focus on -- one specific intention that you really want to carry with you throughout the conference so that you don't get overwhelmed with all of the things because you can't possibly go to everything. You can't possibly do everything and you have to budget your resources -- time, money, and energy.
But this year I was having a difficult time figuring out my focus area.
So I arrived at podcast movement 2019 without a plan. At a certain point, I decided that I was going to use the conference as my oracle -- like using the conference as a tarot card deck and asking the conference some questions.
Where do I need to be?
What is my next step?
And what resources are available to support me in this?

"Making pod-friends is super important because as you may or may not yet know, podcasting can sometimes start to feel like this very solitary thing. It's not like performing on stage where you have an immediate feedback loop, an immediate direct interaction with your audience. It is something that likely you are doing in a room by yourself." ~Andrea Klunder, Episode 047.
If you are listening to this very close to the time that it is released, I'm at Podcast Movement in Orlando, Florida podcast movement 2019. Are you here? Have we met yet?
I am here to teach you how to WIN at podcast conferences.
You didn't know that this was a game, did you?
The reason I wanted to share this with you is because I hear and see so often in the podcasting community a couple of themes:
- People are nervous about attending. Podcasters are notoriously often introverted and the idea of talking to strangers in person like face to face instead of over the interwebs audio-only is nerve-racking.
- People are overwhelmed. Especially with a conference like Podcast Movement where I think there's like seven or eight sessions at any given time and, to make matters even worse, you have to decide whether you're going to go to a session at all because sometimes you can get information overload, because sometimes things are more fun in the hallways outside of the breakout rooms and in the expo area, and because sometimes you just need to eat or rest or record a podcast...

“My clients think I’m a wizard. I don’t think they know entirely what I do. They just know that I do it…. What I actually do is polish people’s podcasts interviews to save everybody time.”
~Carrie Caulfield Arick, YaYa Podcasting
Four podcast editors walk into a bar… Nah, that’s not what happened at all. We got together where you’d expect us to - on a podcast, of course!
Wait! Before you go all “Meh. I’m not an editor so why should I listen?” on this episode, hear me out. You will become a better client and a better podcaster after listening to Carrie Caulfield Arick of YaYa Podcasting, Jennifer Longworth of Bourbon Barrel Podcasting, and Podcasting For Coaches’ Britany Felix. There’s room for everyone at this podcast editors roundtable!
My guests agree that it’s difficult to make family and friends - let alone clients - understand what an editor does. Other aspects of their work are more familiar: consulting, producing, networking, teaching… there’s more; my guests are busy!
But it’s the role of editor that seems to mystify most. People have no idea what we do to make someone’s raw audio file audience-ready. In their minds, an editor either does nothing (grumble, grumble) or performs magic (thanks, but...there’s no fairy dust here).
Maybe it’s because, as humans, we’ve been talking all our lives that people think, how hard can it be to record what we say and have it come out the other end sounding intelligent and natural?
If you’re not an editor, you’d be surprised.
Whether you’re an intrepid DIY podcaster, a turn-key client, or just a faithful listener, you’ll want to listen in as four editor ladies get together on a podcast.

“Audio is a super flexible medium and I think that we have very much limited ourselves in the podcasting space by putting ourselves into two camps: solo hosted or co-hosted shows and interviews.”
~Andrea Klunder, Your Podcast Boss
I'm rebutting a rebuttal of an article that I had wanted to rebut from the Podcast Business Journal, which is a daily online resource that's fairly new in the space and I think is trying to present controversial or conflicting points of views for the sake of discussion on social media, which seems to be working quite well because... here we are.
Should I have an interview show or a solo show?

Article 2: Most Hosts Shouldn't Go Solo by Richard Davies

“It’s a cultural instinct to wait to get picked. To seek out the permission and authority that comes from a publisher or talk show host or even a blogger saying, 'I pick you.'”
~Seth Godin
You all — I’ve been bursting at the seams with this podcasting secret — my production team for Power Your Story made it to the TOP 24 FINALISTS of the Google Podcasts PRX Creator Program!!!!
Yeah — we had an interview with them and we were inches away from one of those 6 slots for teams to be chosen for up to $40K in funding plus awesome mentoring opportunity and… we didn’t get it.
I feel like a deflated balloon.

~Your Podcast Boss
No blinky lights, flashing signs, and pockets full of glittery fairy dust needed.
There are some big moves being made by big players in the podcast industry at large. HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF $$$$$, in fact.
My advice to you?
Do what you do best. Focus on listeners. Focus on community. Focus on delivering outstanding content.
You know that thing when you're in the ocean and there are massive waves out in the distance and by the time they reach where you are standing near the shore, they are gentle little salty swells around your ankles?
Yeah, this is that.

The end?

The New Year can be a time of excitement, anxiety, FOMO and more. For ME... I decided several years ago to skip the usual holiday hoopla and focus on creating rituals for myself that mean something.

It's entirely possible that I wouldn't be here, doing this, at least not in this specific way, if not for today's guest, Elsie Escobar.
This episode is for you if you have ever wondered whether, why and how your show matters despite stats and downloads.
Elsie has been immersed in the field of podcasting since 2006, when she first began with Elsie's Yoga Class, which has been downloaded over 4 million times. She currently co-hosts She Podcasts, both a podcast and the largest online community for women podcasters, as well as produces and co-hosts The Feed, Libsyn's official podcast (Libsyn = the podcasting host I always use and recommend.)
Most recently, Elsie created a mentoring program called the E-League for impact driven podcasters around the central question...
HOW ARE WE OFFERING CONTENT THAT BUILDS A GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF OUR WORLD?
Elsie Escobar, The E-League
I could not imagine a series on Podcasting & Social Impact without including Elsie's voice & expertise. This episode is JAM-PACKED so you'll want to make a good cup of tea, grab a cozy blanked, a pen and a notebook and listen in to see what thoughts and ideas come to your mind.

Today I have an incredible wisdom-packed episode for you and, no, that wisdom is not coming from me. That wisdom is coming from four dynamic, super smart, successful women leaders who have created podcasts in the niche of parenting and podcasts for moms.
Now wait! If you are not a mom or you are not podcasting about parenting or being a mom that does not mean you should not listen to this episode.
You should totally listen because I am not either of those two things and I learned so much from what these women have to share about marketing, niching around purpose, and positioning with their shows, and about something that they pretty much have to be masters of --TIME MANAGEMENT!
This episode was inspired by my interview with Julie Neal of Mother's Quest podcast, episode 36, which you can find here.
In the meantime, listen now to hear more from...
Erica Blocker from Moms with Dreams
Jen McLellan from Plus Mommy
Debbie Reber from Tilt Parenting

Oh HEY! I'm on LinkedIn now... dropping pro podcasting tips, insights, and stories. Connect with me there and let me know you're a Podcast Envy listener.
Whether you are building a business, a brand, and organization or a personal following, podcasting is a super popular trend amongst companies, nonprofits, and, well, people in general.
It sounds so cool and on trend to say you have your own podcast, to imagine your voice being heard by thousands of people around the WORLD, and to know that you have a golden opportunity to influence those listeners through one of the most powerfully intimate forms of media that exists today.
There’s definitely a wave to ride and you’re right on the edge, waiting to catch it!
But how do you know whether you are ready?
It seems easy enough -- you just record your voice and somehow publish it to the internet and voila! Right?
I mean I KNOW you don’t think it’s quite that simple -- or you wouldn’t be here, listening to this right now.
So I have created a checklist of 6 questions to ask yourself (or your organization) before you dive into your podcasting adventure.
Listen in to hear more and pop over to http://bit.ly/podenvy038 to refer to the checklist.

Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's... oh my!
They are here. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have noticed that typically around this time of year, people drop off the face of the earth.
Business gets really slow.
Nobody's responding so much on social media.
Everyone's running around all distracted.
It's getting cold in the Midwest and sometimes snowy and I don't really like that kind of weather. I just want to hole up in my house and do nothing except... well... good thing I make podcasts because I can do that from here.
In any case the question inevitably comes up for podcasters (usually accompanied by mild distress to pure panic):
What do I do with my show over the holidays?
Should I take a break? Should I publish old episodes? Am I going to lose listeners if I disappear for a few weeks?
The answer is right here in this episode for you. Want to know what it is?

A "for purpose" venture to support mothers sparks a social solidarity movement.
I met Julie Neale a couple years ago at Podcast Movement and we became instant friends. Julie pulled me on board for this ambitious heartfelt initiative she founded that year called Women Podcasters in Solidarity -- a collective of women podcasters who have made a pledge to build awareness and funds for social justice through their podcasting platforms.
This is a twice-yearly, ongoing initiative with the first focus being on Anti-Racism and the Movement for Black Lives, and the second on Gun Safety with an Intersectional Lens (you can join now for the new season here).
In this episode, we talk about social justice, gun violence, the origin story of Mother's Quest, how Julie produces her podcast, and finding joyful moments.
A devoted mom on a mission to create a meaningful life for herself alongside and integrated with her role as mother, she supports other mom's to live what she calls an E.P.I.C. life.
Find out what that stands for and get listening recommendations at bit.ly/podenvy036.

Teaching yoga can go so much deeper than just cueing a physical workout class -- there is a certain way that a skillful teacher can use words and language and imagery to connect to deep emotions and levels of awareness -- It makes perfect sense that they could use their voices and the skill and this talent in the medium of podcasting. ~Andrea Klunder
Can podcasting change your teaching practice?
Even if you're not a yoga teacher, don't skip this episode. You are going to learn so much about positioning, niching and marketing your podcast from our panel of yoga teacher podcasters.

Boo! In honor of the Halloween season, I’m serving up advice from our spooky supernatural friends, the ghosts!
Ghosting: When a person cuts off all communication with their friends or the person they're dating, with zero warning or notice before hand. You'll mostly see them avoiding friend's phone calls, social media, and avoiding them in public.* Do NOT do this to your podcast listeners!
I know, sometimes podcasting is frustrating. It’s a lot more work and takes more time than anyone ever lets on in the beginning. And there’s the whole downloads thing -- Apple is not the promised land of instant subscribers and an immediate crowd of podcast fans. Your show may not be the overnight success you imagined it would be.
But trust me -- your listeners are out there, and they need you.
So what to do?

Shannon Crow from The Connected Yoga Teacher is with me on this episode to talk podcasting and social impact. Actually, she reached out to me originally to talk about impostor syndrome (one of my fave topics), so we cover that too!
I LOVE what Shannon is doing with her podcast, and even more so with her community of yoga teachers, the hub of which is her Facebook Group.
In fact, you may or may not know that before podcasting, my primary work was teaching yoga and meditation. I even owned and operated my own studio in Chicago for FIVE years and ultimately had to close because I just couldn't find a way to make the business profitable and sustainable with the resources I had available.
Shannon Crow is definitely a podcaster using this platform to make a positive social impact. Whether you're into yoga or not, there's a lot you can learn from her.
Listen to the episode to find out how she does it!

We are talking all about Podcasting for TV Fans! Well… TV AND movies, specific shows AND genres… It’s all things “fan-casting!”
So full confession, fancasts are not a genre of podcast I typically listen to so after talking with Troy Heinritz of The Blacklist Exposed in episode 30, I got curious about what makes a good show, particularly the community building aspects because I think ALL OF US podcasters and aspiring podcasters can learn a lot from these producers.
To help me out, I enlisted the expertise of 4 show creators:
Shannon Entin of Stinger TV and Movie Podcast, Ozarks Dirty Laundry and The Supreme American Horror Story Podcast
Theo Burbank of Freaky Franchise
Ginger Wiseman of The Outlander Podcast AND The All Souls Podcast
Matt Marr of TV Tea Time, a Riverdale fancast — y’all know if you listen to my other show The Creative Impostor, I love Matt. He was featured on episode 072 of The Creative Impostor talking about vulnerability, being an artist and his other podcast The Dear Mattie Show.
A halloween gift for you!
This month, October 2018, over on my LinkedIn, I’m sharing podcasting tips, practices and fun all around a Halloween theme and I’m kicking it off with a Tarot Card spread for your Podcast Content Marketing Plan.
This is a nod to the nostalgic defining moment of my childhood when I won (or at least placed) in a costume contest at the public library for my gypsy fortune teller look. No tarot cards are NOT fortune telling but I didn’t know any better when I was 9!
So if YOU want to get the spread either to DIY with your own tarot or oracle deck OR you want me to do a 3-card reading for you and YOUR show, click on over to thecreativeimpostor.com/podcasttarot - drop your email there for me and you’ll get instructions and a super brief questionnaire in case you want me to pull cards for you.

About Reva Mody I am a former Corporate Finance employee turned solo business owner.
I understand the anxiety and stress that comes with new business ownership and I believe, very strongly, in learning how to find happiness with the process vs the outcome.
I believe everyone deserves to pursue whatever they want to, but not at the cost of their mental health, happiness & relationships.
I am a psychology enthusiast and a Certified Mind Body Eating Coach.
I use scientifically proven, evidence based techniques to make our brains work for us, versus us, for it.
Episode 025. One of the magical things about podcasting is that sometimes you get to have a great conversation with someone who may have different opinions than you AND simultaneously find out how much you have in common.
This interview with Josh Lewis of the Saving Elephants podcast almost didn't happen because his show is about conservative politics (not my cup of tea), BUT I really loved our talk and his fresh perspective on impostor syndrome when it comes to having a message you feel is so important you want to get it right!

The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast
Jennifer Longworth has been editing audio since 2005, but has just scratched the surface of the podcast industry. She believes everyone has a message to share and that message should come across with clarity...from the podcasters' lips to the listeners' ears.
Episode 020. Are you having trouble falling asleep? I’d like to introduce you to, Harris, Host of the Sleep Whispers podcast, whispered ramblings and readings to help you sleep. You know… ASMR stuff!
I’ve been featured, or, rather, guided meditations I’ve written have been whispered by Harris on his show. The latest one is here (episode 123 Fade Out!)
But if you can’t go to sleep JUST yet, these podcasting tips from Harris will help give you something to think about during your waking hours:
#1 - Regardless of what other podcasters tell you, you can't "give" your audience value. The value of your podcast content is determined by each listener, they will decide if it has value. The analogy is like saying you are going to tell a funny joke. Nope, each person who hears a joke decides if it is funny to them. The important message here is to ask for feedback and listen to any you get, that is the only way you will know if your content has value (or if your jokes are funny).
Harris, I couldn’t agree more! For more tips from Harris, listen to the episode!

Episode 012. From podcast hosting, to editing to cover art and music -- stop asking for "free." And while you're at it, stop asking for referrals for people and services that are "reasonable."
Podcasting is a craft. Whether it is a hobby or a business. Invest in your craft. Take the time to learn how to DIY or PAY for what you need.

Episode 006 features our first listener question in a segment I like to call "Hey Andrea..."
Anna Joy of Anna Joy Healing and the the soon-to-launch podcast Queer Witch has been stock piling episodes and is wondering how many is enough (or too many) before committing to submit? Is she just procrastinating? Is there a checklist of everything you need to be ready to go?
Why, yes, there is...

You're intrigued, aren't you?

Episode 004. You've launched, you've been happily moving along with your podcast, you have a bunch of episodes under your belt, you've learned so many new things, you've connected with other podcasters, you've expanded your circle, you've gotten some listeners -- congratulations mid-career podcaster!
And... so... what's next?
Are you still in love with your show? Are the numbers not meeting your expectations? Is the show costing you more than you're making? Before you pod-fade, listen to this.

Libsyn: The Best Podcast Hosting (in my honest opinion)*
GET A FREE MONTH of hosting with promo code: envy
So many people say to me, "Oh do I really have to pay for hosting? Can't I just use such and such free service or host from my Wordpress site or Squarespace or SoundCloud...?"
You know what? If you're not willing/able to invest even this small amount in what you're creating, I'm questioning whether you really want to podcast!
Save yourself future headaches. Invest a little up front (seriously you can get started for $5/month or jump onto the plan I've been using since the beginning of $15/month.) And KNOW that Libsyn's got your back. Your feed is secure. You will have access to all the best opportunities and resources because you've partnered with the industry gold standard.

Ecamm Call Recorder for Skype (or FaceTime)*
Mac users! This is the software I've been using since the dawn of time (Creative Impostor time) for my interview episodes. You only pay once (no monthly fees.) You can split your tracks (to mute out any weird noises you may have been making while your guest has talking.) And their customer support is just great!

Episode 001! Welcome to Podcast Envy, helping you make your show the envy of everyone else!
How?
Hint: It's not about the microphone.
I'm Andrea Klunder, your podcast boss, and together we are going to learn the mindset, the technology, the secrets to aligning your show with your passion, power and purpose.
And I promise I'm not going to ever talk about "crushing it," "10x-ing" or "6-figure overnight successes!" Ever.
