What's really holding you back from starting that podcast? Fear of technology? Dislike of your own voice? Or the perennial excuse of "not enough time"? In this candid exploration, I dismantle these common barriers one by one, revealing the simple truths that can set your podcasting journey in motion.
The time commitment for podcasting isn't as daunting as you might think. At roughly three hours per episode, the process can be streamlined through batching and strategic scheduling. You don't need to commit to the weekly publishing grind either, seasonal approaches can be just as effective while fitting into your existing commitments. The question becomes not whether you have time, but whether you can afford not to use podcasting as a tool for audience building and business growth.
That discomfort with your recorded voice? It's nearly universal, but remember: your unique vocal qualities are precisely what some listeners will connect with. The podcasting world thrives on authentic voices representing diverse experiences. And as for technology fears, the only real difference between "techie" people and everyone else is the willingness to experiment and learn from mistakes. Most podcast platforms provide clear, step-by-step instructions that anyone can follow.
What truly matters isn't technical prowess or a perfect voice, but clarity about your purpose and message. Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, technically adept or challenged, your expertise deserves to be shared. The world needs your perspective, and keeping that knowledge to yourself when others could benefit is, as I often tell my clients, "a little bit selfish." Ready to overcome these mindset blocks? Your future audience is waiting and my self-study program (currently available at a special discount USE CODE: SS150) can guide you through every step of the journey. The time to start is now.
