  • 28. Stop Quitting Your Podcast Before Momentum Kicks In
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode, I’m saying what a lot of podcasters need to hear but don’t want to hear: stop quitting. Stop quitting on yourself, stop quitting on your podcast, and stop starting over every time you feel bored, unsure, or like things aren’t moving fast enough.

    Most podcasters quit right before momentum kicks in. Seriously. Most people don’t even make it past 20 episodes, and it’s not because their podcast is bad, it’s because they decide it’s “not working” too soon. They’re not seeing ROI yet, so they stop, rethink everything, change direction, and then confuse the algorithm, their audience, and themselves in the process.

    Here’s the truth: marketing requires repetition. You are going to say the same things over and over again. You are going to feel bored with your own message long before your audience is. That doesn’t mean it’s not working. That means you’re doing marketing. I talk about podcasting all the time, across multiple platforms, and yes, I repeat myself constantly. That’s the job.

    This episode is really about letting go of perfection, letting go of the need for constant reinvention, and focusing on what you’re putting in instead of obsessing over outcomes. Momentum comes from staying in the game long enough to let your efforts compound. The harvest doesn’t show up if you keep stopping before anything has time to grow.

    You don’t need a brand new strategy. You don’t need to burn everything down and start over. You don’t need to quit. You need to keep going, allow yourself to evolve as you go, and trust that clarity comes through action, not restarting.

    Half of success in podcasting is simply not quitting. Keep going.

  • 27. Consistency Is a Skill: How to Stay Consistent With Your Podcast
    Jan 27 2026

    In this episode, I’m talking about something that honestly doesn’t get enough credit in podcasting or business in general: consistency. And not in the “you’re either born disciplined or you’re not” way, because that’s not real. Consistency is a skill. It’s something you build, practice, and strengthen over time.

    I’m recording this in the middle of doing a daily podcast, so trust me when I say I’m in it right now. It’s hard. And I wanted to talk about this because so many podcasters quit—not because they’re bad at podcasting, but because they never learned how to stay consistent when it stops feeling exciting.

    We talk about why consistency isn’t a personality trait, why motivation will fail you, and why systems matter more than willpower. If you’re trying to “record when you feel like it,” that’s the fastest way to fall off. Consistency requires structure. Calendars. Habits. Non-negotiable time blocked out to show up, even when you don’t feel inspired.

    I also talk about what consistency really looks like in real life. Sometimes schedules shift. Sometimes the day changes. That doesn’t mean you quit. And missing a week doesn’t mean you failed. The only way you actually fail is if you decide it’s over and stop showing up completely.

    This episode is a reminder that nobody is watching you as closely as you think they are, and nobody is keeping score the way you are in your own head. The goal isn’t perfection. The goal is momentum.

    By the end of this episode, I challenge you to take action. Block time on your calendar for the next 30 days. Not just for releasing episodes, but for actually showing up to record. One or two hours a week. That’s it. If you want this podcast to work, you have to treat it like something that matters.

    Consistency is built by showing up when it’s inconvenient, when it’s uncomfortable, and when it would be easier to skip. That’s how the skill gets stronger. And if you really want this, you’ll build it.
