The Human Connection Podcast: Recent Episodes
Brittney Lynn
The Human Connection podcast dives deep into the topic of how entrepreneurs and small business owners can be better at building real, authentic relationships with their audience. We as humans are wired at a subconscious level to want to create a connection with other human beings.
We all have a story worth sharing, but if you aren't skilled or prioritizing connecting to people on a 1-on-1 level, your message might be missed.
Tune in to the Human Connection podcast to learn from experienced entrepreneurs and small business owners on how they connect with their audience in their own unique ways.
We'll be talking about pitching for press and media opportunities, social media marketing, online marketing tactics, paid advertising, business tips and more to help you uncover how you can create a better human connection with your audience and the people in your life.

She mentors virtual support pros (VAs & OBMs) who are passionate and ready to grow their businesses while living life on their own term and is the host of the How She Did That Podcast -- a podcast for Virtual Assistants, Online Business Managers, and Project Managers to learn business and tech tips.
Let’s get into today’s interview!

Welcome back to another episode of the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn, founder of the Human Connection Agency, a PR agency that helps you get visible and land prominent media mentions and today’s episode we are talking about consistency and why it matters when you pitch the media.
If you’re brand new to pitching yourself to the media it can be hard to develop the habit of being consistent with your pitching, right?
Doing anything new and unfamiliar can feel like a struggle.
Trying a new workout routine, eating healthier, regularly writing blog posts, drinking more water, routinely recording new podcast episodes...all of those things can feel hard to do when you’re starting a new habit if you aren’t used to it.
But I will share this: when it comes to basically anything in life, if you’re wanting to form a new habit and get into a routine of regularly doing something, you have to be consistent to move forward.
Tune in to find out why consistency matters when it comes to pitching the media.

Hello hello welcome back to the first podcast episode of 2021 of the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn and I’m so excited you are here listening!
In case you are new around these parts, welcome! I’m a female entrepreneur who runs a PR agency that serves purpose-driven online entrepreneurs.
Our team represents clients across a variety of industries landing them podcast interviews, publication interviews, and tv interviews.
Many people want to work with us because we do the heavy lifting of PR -- we come up with pitch ideas, do the research on the best outlets to reach out to, connect with the journalists/podcast hosts/producers, and land our clients the interview.
But...not everyone is at a place where it makes sense to completely outsource this work. Maybe you aren’t ready to pay an ongoing retainer fee to an agency like ours to do everything for you.
But you are ready to start getting mentioned by the media.
To see your name in prominent publications, to become that go-to expert in your industry.
So, this solo episode is going to share how you can observe what the media is reporting on and how you can come up with those pitch topics for yourself!
Let’s get into it.
In today’s episode, you'll find out:
- The importance of consuming the media outlets you want to pitch
- How to pay attention to media headlines and a break down of 4 headline examples and why they work
- What is a “hook” and the 3 components of an effective hook
- How the media works in regards to first time pitchers

Welcome back to another episode of the Human Connection podcast! Today is a solo episode from me and we are talking about creating a 2021 visibility plan that works for you and your goals.
Lots of people have their eyes on 2021. It’s hard not to, right? I think we can collectively agree that 2020 ended up being a year none of us expected. What you had set out to do at the beginning of the year maybe didn’t come to fruition. Plans changed. Maybe drastically, maybe only slightly.
2020 has also been a year of reflection for many of us. It’s caused us to pause, reflect, take note of what’s working, what’s not, who we want to follow and support, and who we don’t, how we want to spend our time and how we don’t want to spend our time.
Tune into this episode to learn how to reflect on 2020, what questions to ask yourself for 2021, and so much more so you can create a visibility plan that feels good for you.
In today’s episode, you'll find out:
- How to reflect on 2020 as a business owner and the questions to ask yourself as you think back about the last 12 months
- When it doesn’t make sense to pitch yourself to podcasts (and other types of media)
- How to craft a visibility plan that supports you and your business

Hey hey, welcome to the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn and today’s episode is a solo one and I’m sharing that what you think is your problem actually isn’t your problem.
Visibility is a popular “word of the year” for a lot of entrepreneurs (heck, it was mine back in 2018!) and many entrepreneurs think that they have a visibility problem.
“I’m not posting on social enough.” “I’m blogging enough.” “I need to be on more podcasts.” “I need to speak at more online summits.” ….and on and on and on.
But I’d like to challenge you on this because visibility isn’t your problem. Let’s get into it!
In today’s episode, you'll find out:
- Why visibility isn’t actually your problem
- The two things that hold people back from being visible
- The 5 core fears people have and how it affects your visibility plans
- An exercise you can do to help you break through any core fears you have around being visible

Hey hey, welcome to the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn and today’s episode is all about how to pitch for TV segments!
TV is at an interesting place in time where most interviews are being done remotely -- which means you can pitch to a ton of different markets (locations) across the U.S. instead of having to physically be in studio for the interview.

Hey hey, welcome to the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn and today’s interview is with millennial finance expert Whitney Hansen of The Money Nerds!
After paying off $30,000 in 10 months, hacking her way to a $472 MBA, and buying her first home at 19, she discovered her love for helping Millennials take control of their financial life.
At the time we recorded this, it was significantly before the pandemic began so I decided to push back the episode to speak to the current climate.
But the topics we talk about during the episode are most definitely still relevant, if not MORE relevant since many of us are experiencing a stretching of our finances, some more than others.
In today’s episode, you'll find out:
- How your relationship with money affects your relationships with other people
- Why you’re relationship with money matters to your business success
- Scarcity mindset

Hey hey, welcome to the Human Connection podcast, I’m your host Brittney Lynn and today’s episode is all about PR strategies for introverts.
Before we dive into today’s topic, I wanted to share about a brand new service I have called the Pitch Power Hour. This is where you and me can chat for 1 hour all about your PR strategy for a specific program or product you’d like to get in front of more people.
Whether you’re wanting to start pitching yourself for podcast interviews to help you grow your email list or have a course launch coming up, I’d love to help you strategize the best pitching options for you! You also receive 1 custom pitch template. Head to link listed below to sign up for a spot!
NOW….onto today’s episode...PR strategies for introverts!
I, too, am an introvert so please know that these tips are coming from someone who knows how you feel.
An introvert may feel uncomfortable at large networking events, feel totally drained after being at a party with a lot of people, you may not enjoy being put on the spot (your mind goes blank)...overall you prefer less social interaction and recharge your batteries by being alone.
You may be thinking that pitching yourself for media opportunities is only for extroverts. People that thrive on being surrounded by a lot of people, being the life of the party, but I’d beg to differ...introverts, especially during these times right now, can thrive off of being visible in ways that aren’t anxiety-inducing.
In today’s episode, you'll find out:
- Why now is the time for introverts to be visible and pitch themselves for media opportunities
- 6 tips for getting visible as an introvert
- The number 1 thing you need to do as an introvert before pitching
- How to use social media during social distancing to network with new people

Hey hey, welcome to the Human Connection podcast! It is a brand new year and a brand new DECADE, how crazy is that?!
If you’re anything like me, coming back to work after some time off can be a bit of a struggle. I’m typically a very all or nothing person and it can be hard for me to go from reading and snuggling my pup all day every day to go full back into work mode.
I’m easing my way back into work mode and I hope you are too.
While I did take a lot of time off of working complete, I also did a lot of brainstorming and planning for what I want 2020 to look like. My business will probably look a lot different than it does a year from now (it always does!) and I can’t wait to roll out several new programs and offerings that I think you’ll enjoy.
One of those being...a 2020 Publicity Planning workshop!
This workshop will help you get crystal clear on how you can incorporate a PR strategy into your 2020 planning.
If you’re a service based or product based entrepreneur looking to:
Grow your email list
Increase qualified traffic to your website
Get in front of more of your target audience and
Earn extra revenue

The cost is $49 and the live workshop will be hosted on January 15 at 12pm Central. There will be a recording if you can’t make it live.

Today’s interview is with Zoe Scharf, Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer at Greetabl. Greetabl is an online one-stop-shop for creatively-curated, personalized gifts and greetings.
Zoe and I talk about what Greetabl looked like when it was first getting started (what they envisioned for Greetabl to start is actually not what it is today!), how Greetabl uses direct feedback from their customers to help shape their company, the value of negative feedback from customers and how it shapes their product, and the importance of the language that you use in your marketing materials.
The holidays have arrived and if you’re looking for the perfect gift to send to your clients, I’d highly recommend using Greetabl!
Also, before we get into the episode, I want to let you know I'm working on something ✨BRAND NEW ✨that I think many of you may be interested in and I'm looking for some beta-testers.
