Description

What do you really need to launch a podcast? Spoiler alert: It’s not a $700 mic or a soundproof studio. In this episode, I’m breaking down the essential tools, mindset shifts, and prep strategies you need to launch a podcast that feels aligned, intentional, and doable. If you’re stuck in research mode or drowning in tech reviews, this is the clarity you need to move forward with success!
