The Podcast Space

Mindset can be limiting, or freeing, and so Lloyd and I also dived into the scarcity mindset that many creators have (especially podcasters!) and how instead of viewing other creators as competition, you can support and share their content or use it as a starting point for your own episode. Spoiler alert: we’re stronger together!

Lloyd and I share our love for creating community through authentic content, and this episode ended up being more of a conversation of two creators who ‘met’ (virtually) after months of following and admiring each other’s work online, so I also ended up unveiling a lot of my own process of The Podcast Space’s online strategy, building a Membership, a course, and allowing myself to figure it out as I go. We speak about the ups and downs of the content creation journey and the importance of being part of a community in order to stay motivated in the long run.

We also focus on the importance of making small tweaks to your content creation process, which can have a big impact on your podcast: Lloyd shares how tweaking his podcast flow almost doubled his episode downloads. And what you need to know in order to create content that performs well on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and more.

• Try new things regularly: Try new things every 2 weeks to keep your content fresh and interesting. This can lead to finding a new approach that works better for you and your audience.
