Disappointing podcast metrics?
Hazy podcast content strategy?
Feeling the burnout, the overwhelm, the dreadā¦ and itās only January?!
When we only think about podcasting for our business, brand, or organization in order to grow our audience, and the reason we wanna grow our audience is to sell more of a thing in order to make money, then we are often going to be disappointed.
Why?
Because there are easier, more cost effective, faster ways to grow our audience, to sell more of a thing to make more money. This does not mean that podcasting doesnāt work, but it means that we have to be a little bit smarter than just download numbers, growing our audience to sell a thing.
We have to think about what podcasting does really, really well and how to leverage the time, the money, the energy, the effort, the investment that we are putting into our podcast, to know how to leverage that in a way that it makes more sense, that it fits into our strategy and into our workflowā¦ better.

I don't want to offer you another recap roundup or year in review episode. The other thing I'm not offering you is a ānew year, new youā episode. But I DID want to come on here and have a podcast conversation with you because things are changing.
And I'm actually pretty excited for 2024!
When you started your podcast, you had an idea in mind, probably, of what you wanted to offer to your audience, a problem that you were solving or something that you wanted to speak to. And maybe youāve been chugging along and you felt great and it was working and it was making a difference and people were joining your podcast and your audience was growing and then something happened.
You became bored or disillusioned with your show, or your numbers kind of stagnated or maybe even dropped. But itās not that you suddenly are doing something wrong ā itās that your community, your audience is also changing. And so what it is that they need now and how can you shift to meet that need?

I have a confession to make and that is that I have a problem. There is a word that I have started using. I have adopted it into my language, into my vocabulary, and I am very disturbed and ashamed, and itās not a word that I wanna be using ever, or at least not as much as I have been as of late.
And that is, well, if you looked at the title of the episode, you already know itās the āc-word.ā
I serve business owners, thought leaders, and organization directors in their respective niches to use the medium of podcasting towards whatever their higher purpose or goal is. But this whole media landscape is getting more competitive day by day.
You CAN use this platform to create genuine, intimate, meaningful conversations with your listeners. You are creating meaningful change in their life. You are providing them something that they donāt get anywhere else.
However, they need to be able to find you, and once they find you, you need to be able to capture and hold their attention long enough to build the relationship.
And that's where the "p-word" comes in!

The summer slowdown... it's the PERFECT time to do a bit of business development that is actually FUN! This year, Lauren Ramsey of Betsy Bash and I decided to team up to help you with this conundrum of feeling like you are constantly on the content hamster wheel generating podcast episodes, generating social media posts, making TikToks and reels, trying to figure out what the heck to put on YouTube, trying to figure out what the algorithms want...
Why is it important to sync your content across your podcast, social, and other marketing channels? Lauren says, "Your audience is seeing all of those channels. So if they don't match, if they're not aligned, people can feel that. Whether or not they realize it consciously, they are realizing it subconsciously and it negatively impacts their perception of your brand. Which is really hard to get rid of later. Right? Like how do you change someone's subconscious?"
Your social media exists to pull people towards your brand. It's there to create a community around your brand. So if it's not aligned with what your podcast marketing goals are, that's a huge miss.Not to mention... you're burning a lot of time, energy, and resources.
So what's a podcast creator to do? Listen to the episode to find out!

Welcome to a crossover episode of a different sort. But first: How are you doing? No, really? I ask because May is Mental Health Awareness Month. So many of us, myself included, struggle to articulate how āoffā we feel right now, a cruel joke given that the good folks and orgs behind this monthās observance urge us to check in with our emotional, psychological, and social well-being.
Iāll go first (yikes!): The only way I can describe my current state of mind is fragile. Can you relate? If youāre an entrepreneur, an educator, a corporate employee, a HUMAN, I bet you can.
Youāre okay. I acknowledge and honor your struggle.
This episode isnāt about mental health per se. Itās about creating a secure and attentive environment for guests to feel supported, understood, and willing to engage in vulnerable conversations. The high schoolers behind Power Your Story, my student mentee podcast, beautifully illustrate my point. Their cohort-led interview with Peer Support Specialist and Mental Health Advocate Ashley Scott showcases subtle practices anyone can incorporate to become a better listener and, thus, better podcast host.
Co-hosts Elvis, Emerie, Jules, and Alejandro facilitate a space where Ashley feels supported to speak more candidly about her mental health. That safety is mutual: Ashleyās comfort leads the students to go off-script, to ask more meaningful follow-up questions, and to add personal observations that make for a more engaging conversation.
You can talk about podcasting for marketing, sales, audience growth, or business all day, but this genuine exchange is why I love podcasting; this is where your audience will find value.
The last few episodes of Podcast Envy have focused on hosting and content strategies guaranteed to make your show a repeat listen. By creating a safe, intimate container where you and your guests can discuss important topics, youāre signaling to the audience that they, too, are seen and heard. I appreciate that not everyoneās format is conducive to exploring tough conversations. Still, anyone can follow the Power Your Story lead, regardless of your showās POVs, by remaining present and reflecting back to each guest.
For Mental Health Awareness, check out all of this monthās related Power Your Story episodes:
Insomnia & Dreaming of a Better Nightās Sleep with Leonardo & Dewayne;
The Journey to Self-Empowerment: Mindfulness,Law of Attraction with Hysan & May;
Heavy Metal & Mental Health with Justin Bowling by Leslie, Carlos, Essence & ChuYing and produced by Aldo;
Advocating for Mental Health & Peer Support with Ashley Scott

Psst. Want to know the secret to becoming a better podcast host?
Itās not your equipment. Relationships are everything. Research indicates that while folks may listen to podcasts for entertainment and information, they remain loyal to a specific show because of its host.
Karen Yates is definitely that host. Sheās a producer, host, and the mastermind behind Wild & Sublime, the super-successful, highly binge-able podcast about sex for everyone, no matter their preferences, orientation, or relationship style.
Here are a few of my fave hosting tips:
Get into the rhythm.
Act natural, strategically.Craft different but authentic voice personas.
Skip the pre-show cheese stick. Seriously.
But wait, thereās more, including Karenās number one tip for better hosting, but youāll have to check out the episode to get it!
Get the FULL masterclass replay with Karen & me!https://www.thecreativeimposter.com/beanawesomehost
You know that hosting a podcast is so much more than just plugging in a mic and tapping into your gift of gab! But how do you level up so that your podcast shines?
We also cover:
Insight into Karenās pre-production, production, and post-production processes when creating Wild & Sublime
How she sets her guest up for success each and every time
Facilitating smooth, engaging panel discussions (Karenās signature episode style)
Voice acting and self-care tips
How to work with your editor to create a system of communication that helps them read your mind, even if that editor is yourself
How I think about my relationship with YOU!

Iāve been learning about sales. NOT my natural zone of genius, but Iām necessarily getting better at it, partly thanks to one of our clients, Paul Reilly at The Q and A Sales Podcast. On a recent episode called āWhat separates top achieving salespeople?ā Paul said that 79% of top achieversā sales success is because of the customer relationships they build.
His team asked buyers and decision makers: Why would you choose one partner over another? Relationship with a salesperson ranked higher, meaning more important, than price. And part of relationship building is ENTERTAINMENT.
You may be thinking, āBut Andrea, Iām not selling anything when Iām making a podcast!ā
Wrong!
On the surface, you may have a podcast to help you sell a product or service, join your membership, come to your event. Dig deeper, and you may be selling them on an idea, concept, or a change you want to see in your niche. And ultimately, you are ALWAYS selling them on continuing to spend their valuable time and attention listening to your podcast.
So how are YOU going to make your podcast more entertaining as you build that relationship with your listener (i.e. your customer?)
Iāve got 10 ideas for you!
You may be thinking, āDo I have to sing? Be funny? Do investigative journalism? Sound design????ā
NOT NECESSARILY! Play the episode to find out what to do and how to choose your authentic entertainment style.

Now, this may be difficult to hear, so sit down and take a deep breath... Your podcast might be a little boring. What? Gasp. "There's no way," you say defensively.
I'm not saying that you're doing a bad job at podcasting. Not at all. I simply want you to consider a few ways to make your show more compelling. I'll even offer up a formula for your success!
For now, consider this: Three-quarters of podcast listeners enjoy a podcast "for particular hosts." The host is the reason they appreciate the podcast! Not the content, not the guests, not the informationā¦ the host.

In university parlance, a 101 class forms the foundation for sustainable proficiency in a particular subject. Itās fitting then that this one-oh-one episode of Podcast Envy is an installment of āHey Andrea!ā where I answer questions posed by real-life podcasters about creating a successful, satisfying podcasting experience for themselves, their business, their brand, or an organization.
Todayās question comes via the She Podcasts Facebook group from Jeannette Bonner, producer and host of Hashtag Single. Jeannette asks, āHow do I get over podcasterās block?ā
Ugh! Is there a more universal dilemma in all of podcasting?
Fortunately... I've got some tried & true strategies for you!

What is it about a new year that sends me deep into my productivity feels? āTis the (well-marketed) season for shiny new projects over thoughtful annual assessment. For tidal waves of bigger! better! concepts vs. gentler tides of introspection.
So, who else besides me needs a life vest to keep from drowning under a productivity deluge?
Truth: I have a complicated relationship with productivity.
Sarah Steckler feels our pain. Sheās a productivity strategist and educator who helps folks bring more intention and awareness to their personal, professional, and creative mindsets via courses, planners, and weekly newsletters. Sarahās also the host of the Mindful Productivity Podcast, on which she breaks down proven productivity skills and entrepreneurial organization strategies into totally doable, sustainable habits.
Sarah reminds us to take the smaller steps when weāre feeling overwhelmed by productivity adrenaline, especially the tasks that have seemingly little direct impact on our larger aspirations. Eventually, they will. Being more productive doesnāt necessarily mean doing more stuff, says Sarah. āIt's doing less, more effectively, right?ā

Are you nervous? Your palms getting sweaty? Are you feeling the media-magnified stress about a recession, and youāre considering cutting your spending?
Rather than scaling back, you may want to DOUBLE DOWN on your podcast this year. Wait, what?
Consider whatās on your listenersā minds ā inflation, interest rates, food prices, rent prices, gas prices, supply chain shenanigans ā and then provide them with the resources that help them through this economic cycle.

It is a new year and it is time for a good old fashioned Podcast Boss Rant. Are you ready?
This year I am creating SOPs, or Standard Operating Procedures for The Creative Impostor Studios. Boring. But I guess a necessary thing if you want to create a scalable business that grows, that doesn't make your brain hurt every time you try to bring on a new team member, or remember how you did the thing or try to build some consistency or whatever, but this is not an episode, nor a rant about SOPs.
This is a rant about CONTENT.
Little known fact: I learn most of what I know about business from listening to podcasts.
And so I went to the trusty Apple Podcasts app, typed in āStandard operating proceduresā looking to my very own "podcast grad school" for the answers.
I found two I was excited about: one was 44min long and made by podcasters for podcasters and the other was by a random business coach I never heard of and was 10min long.
Did either episode give me what I was looking for?

Itās one thing to successfully create a podcast that informs, engages, and inspires. Itās another thing entirely to do so while maintaining the voice of an organization.
Enter Destination Santa Fe Opera, the show that makes it look sound so easy.
As a producer of the show, Iām responsible for creating much of that illusion. However, as a freelancer, I work approximately 1200 miles away from Santa Fe Operaās sprawling desert campus and three folks whoāve made this project sound so unlike others occupying the same niche.
Emily Doyle Moore (director of media and public relations at Santa Fe Opera & executive producer of DSFO), Dune Alford (former media and PR associate at Santa Fe Opera & DSFO producer), and Jane Trembley (former house manager at Santa Fe Opera & current host of DSFO) lend their collective two cents (six cents?) to this conversation about institutional podcasting.

If you think everyone spent their "wfh" time dreaming up new podcasts, youāre right. There are fresh sources for entertainment, investigative reporting, and niche pursuits everywhere you listen.
As a podcast strategist, however, Iāve noticed one concept that has flourished over the last 18 months: the purpose-driven podcast.
Is purpose-driven podcasting for YOU?
