If you’re thinking about starting a podcast next year, this episode is about slowing down before you press record.

I share the key questions you need to ask yourself before launching, why success in podcasting looks very different depending on your goals, and why a thoughtful, well-crafted show will always outperform something rushed or trend-chasing.

This episode is for anyone who wants to create a podcast they’re proud of, not just something they “give a crack” and abandon six months later.

In this episode, I cover:

1. Why success in podcasting isn’t one-size-fits-all
2. How to define success metrics that actually work for your life and goals
3. Why high-quality, well-considered shows are more important than ever
4. Whether it’s “too late” to start a podcast (spoiler: it’s not)
5. The questions every new podcaster should answer before they begin
