episode 10: 10 signs that show that you're podcasting from a place of fear
Podcasting is one of the most popular forms of media today, and it is growing in popularity every day. So much so that many people podcast out of passion, while others podcast out of fear. In fact, you could be Podcasting out of fear and you may not have noticed it. Fear can be detrimental to both the podcaster and the listener: that’s why it is important to recognize the signs so that you can pivot into a more positive place!
In this episode, I cover the 10 signs that show that you’re diving into fear-based content, and explain what to do instead.
Topics covered in this episode:
- How to Identify Signs of Fear-Based Podcasting
- Crafting Perfect Content vs. Good Enough Content
- Using Language Appropriate for Your Listeners
- Finding your voice
- Humanizing Your Brand with Imperfect Content
- Avoiding Talking Over Your Listeners' Heads
Takeaways from the episode:
- As someone who's worked with 50+ hosts over the years, I can tell when a host is podcasting in a fear-based mindset - and no, it's not coming from their voice, but from the content itself!
- There are a lot of reasons why you may move from a passion or purpose-driven episode, to one focused on fear. Sometimes it's because a stranger on the internet made a mean comment, or because you're still finding your voice.
- Here are top 5 reasons that give fear away: Constantly over explaining the content, Putting the content through your peers' magnifying lens at all times, Obsessing over 'perfection' to the point that the episodes get re-recorded often, Creating highly complex and hard-to-follow episodes, Not wanting to be 'salesy'
