Description

It's never too late to start podcasting. Both myself and my guest, Jen Vertanen (Be. Dare. Create.Your Best Damn Lifepodcast), are over 50 and doing the damn thing! 

In this episode, Jen (she/her) talks about why podcasting is a true labor of love. We also dive into the permission she gave herself to stop podcasting when it simply wasn't fun, and the permission she gave herself to come back to it when she was ready. 

She also shares the importance of allowing yourself to have fun, play, and figure out what lights you up as you create your podcast.

Join us for a chat about our podcast processes, challenges with microphones and sound, and going with the podcast flow.

Recorded: October 2024
