You Can Do Hard Things: Podcasting, Business, and Burnout with Alesia Galati
Description
In this episode of Here’s What I Learned, I sit down with podcast strategist and founder of Galati Media, Alesia Galati, to talk about building a values-first business, scaling intentionally, and why it's okay to burn it down and start again. We dive into doing business your way, creating sustainable systems, and overcoming imposter syndrome—especially when launching a podcast or trying to grow one without selling your soul.
Alesia shares her insights on leading a mission-driven team, offering generous (and free!) podcast education, and how she’s shifted her business to serve impact-focused creators who want to grow their podcasts on a budget.
Topics:
- Doing Business Your Way (3:35 )
- Building and Managing a Values-aligned Team (7:00 )
- Challenges of Imposter Syndrome and Sharing Your Story (13:52 )
- Lessons Learned and Advice for Podcasters (21:48 )
