60. Do You Need a Weekly Podcast...or a Limited Series? Aug 19, 2026 23:54 For four years I told service providers to start a podcast. Same format, same advice, every time. And I am done doing that.In this episode, the third in a series I have been building over the last few weeks, I am walking through the two primary audio formats I now work with. One is an ongoing commitment. The other is a defined, bingeable experience of 8 to 12 episodes designed to take someone from

59. If You Don't Need a Weekly Podcast, What DO You Need? Aug 12, 2026 15:06 Last week I said something I never expected to say, which is that not every service provider needs a weekly podcast. If you missed that one, go back and listen to episode 58 first because this episode builds directly on it.Today I want to answer the question that naturally follows. If not all service providers need a weekly podcast, then what do they need? And why do I still believe that every ser
58.  Not Every Service Provider Needs a Weekly Podcast
58. Not Every Service Provider Needs a Weekly Podcast Aug 5, 2026 24:56 This one is a little different. I have been sitting on this for a while, and I was honestly nervous to say it out loud.For four years, I have been telling service providers they need a weekly podcast. And I still believe in podcasting deeply. But I no longer think that a weekly show is the right answer for every business owner, and I think I have been asking the wrong question this whole time.The

56. She Hadn't Recorded in 2 Years and People Still Listened Jul 22, 2026 13:50 I was on a call with a client who stopped releasing episodes two years ago. We pulled up her stats just to move her show to a new host, and her jaw dropped. People were still listening. Twelve plays last month alone, two years after her last recording.This is not the first time I have seen this happen. Another client of mine took a 13-month break and came back to 2,400 downloads she had no idea sh

55. Why Every Coach I've Hired Had a Podcast Jul 15, 2026 08:39 Every coach I have ever hired was because of their podcast. Not Instagram, not Threads. Even when I discovered someone through social media first, I always ended up at their show before I ever reached out.That is not a coincidence. Social media is full of content that could have come from anywhere, written by anyone, polished by a tool. But when you hear someone talking, working through a real tho

When she came back, I pulled her numbers and she had 2,400 downloads in the time she was completely gone. One month alone had 500.That is exactly what I want to talk about today.There is this assumption that your podcast only works when you are actively working it, that if you are not recording or promotin
53. 3 Types of Podcasting That Replace Social Media
53. 3 Types of Podcasting That Replace Social Media Jul 1, 2026 08:00 When we think about starting a podcast, we usually picture having our own show, going out every week, slowly building an audience. And that is a powerful strategy. But did you know it's only one piece of a much bigger picture?There are actually three types of podcasting, and when you understand how all three work together, you stop seeing podcasting as just a content strategy and start seeing it a
