Description

What do you do when your listeners say they want longer episodes but you’re already at capacity?

In this episode, I’m giving you a giant permission slip to not do what your audience asks and why that’s often the best thing for them and you.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why listener feedback doesn’t always require action
  • How to protect your time and energy as a podcaster
  • What really matters when it comes to growing your audience
  • How to add value without increasing your workload
  • When bonus episodes are better than longer ones
