Episode 257

Tips, mindset shifts, team hacks – I’m sharing it all in this special 2nd-anniversary special. I'm talking from the fear of even starting a podcast to reaching 250k downloads (and everything in between)!

I have to tell you, I waited a long time before starting a podcast because I didn’t feel I had a big enough audience. I envisioned my message sitting in the shadows somewhere collecting dust.

I’m so glad I finally just went for it because this podcast has been a platform to help so many people and I’m really proud of its success.

If you've been considering starting a podcast I say "Go for it!" Also, consider welcoming support in the areas like editing and podcast show notes writing so that you don’t burn yourself out. Batch recording is a great way to prepare to launch (just not too many!). Let me know how it goes if you launch! Tag me in your Instagram stories @emilyaarons.com.
