Description

There’s a lot of advice out there about how to grow a podcast—and a lot of it is  just plain wrong!

In this solo episode, I’m calling out the biggest podcast growth myths I see (even from seasoned creators), and offering smarter, more sustainable strategies instead.

We cover:

  • Why your old episodes are still powerful
  • Why you don’t need a perfect launch to succeed
  • Why repeating content isn’t lazy—it’s strategic
  • How to shift from “weekly content machine” to “long-term visibility engine”


Timestamps:

  • 06:08 - Myth 1: More Episodes Equals More Growth
  • 09:42 - Myth 2: Going Viral on Social Media
  • 13:30 - Myth 3: Big Name Podcasts Drive Growth
  • 18:27 - Myth 4: Podcast SEO Doesn't Matter
  • 20:56 - Myth 5: Paid Ads Are the Only Way to Grow
  • 22:32 - Effective Strategies for Podcast Growth


If your podcast feels like it’s stuck in neutral—or you’re wondering why it’s not bringing in more leads—this is the one to listen to. Let’s simplify your strategy and get back to growth that actually works.
