Podcasting With Impact: From Doubting to Doing Regina Larko

Are you worried that you won’t sound professional enough to start your own podcast? Are you questioning your voice and how you express yourself? 

It’s a common fear that holds many potential podcasters back from hitting that record button. But let me tell you something: sounding "professional" isn’t needed to bring you the podcasting success you aspire to. 

And I am so excited for you and me as we will be working through busting some myths about sounding professional for your podcast together. 

In this episode I will share six of the most common misconceptions about sounding professional that I have encountered from working with my clients from across the world over the past few years, but also my own when I first got into podcasting in 2016. 



I know that this will help  you to rethink everything that you have so far thought about sounding professional.

When you want to start or continue your podcast, your do to list is long.  The general perception is that - at any given time - you have a million things to consider and to do.

Your social media feed is full of the advice of podcast marketers, telling you about all the things you have to do to be considered a successful podcaster.


Publish every week


Promote on every social media platform.


Invite high caliber guests.


Have the most crisp and perfect audio quality. 


Come up with an innovative, creative format



It can feel so overwhelming to have this long to-do list in front of us. 

What often times happens then, is that we freeze.

We don't know what to start with and what to do, so we don’t do anything instead.

Or we start doing something completely unrelated, just to not be confronted with this uncomfortably long to do list. 

I see that on myself all the time too. 

Looking at my coaching podcasting business I have a lot on my plate.

What I do on those days, not just when the list is particularly long, but in general, how I organise my work, with the help of 1 brilliant question.

A question that will move you from overwhelm to taking action.

Today I will teach you all about it so that you start taking simple action steps that actually matter the most at this point of your podcasting journey. Enjoy!

There’s a lot of healing in podcasting. I see this for myself, the guests I invite on my podcast and the clients I support with starting and developing their podcasts all the time.What begins as a podcasting journey - almost inevitably -  turns into this beautiful journey of self discovery and self growth. And this is what podcasting with impact is all about really. To me this means, a podcast is never just a podcast. A podcast is an invitation to get to know each other better, to get to know ourselves better, to understand and listen to our own ambitions, to acknowledge the heartache and heartbreak that comes with being a human and to show up - for life - with curiosity and kindness. Heart-forward, hopeful, patient, unhurried. 

I hope that through my sharing in this episode I can give you the confidence and courage to go into conversation with yourself as well as your guests, even touching on topics that are difficult to discuss, topics that maybe you have even shied away from in the past because you felt they were too painful or sensitive to address.

In this episode, we will explore one of the most important questions every podcaster should ask themselves.


It has nothing to do with podcasting equipment or which media host to choose for your podcast.


It has also nothing to do with how long your episode should be or how you should best market your podcast.
It has nothing to do with the technicalities or SEO strategies to grow your show
It has nothing to do with how to be a better host or how to ask better interview questions

Although all of the questions above are important, they aren't even close to the one crucial question that will impact the long term success of your podcast.

It's a question that will help you paint a vivid picture of the extraordinary possibilities that await your podcast.

The question we will unpack today will you help embrace your podcasting journey with more excitement, certainty and passion from here on out. All ingredients necessary to reap long term benefits of your podcast.

Enjoy listening and reach out to me if any questions come up.

Every podcaster has things on their plate that feel "not-fun."

When it comes to your podcast, what is it for you?

Editing, Marketing, Researching, Social Media?

It’s easy to find yourself procrastinating or putting off important tasks that you know you need to do because they don't feel fun.

So how do we solve  this?

First, it's important to categorize the not-fun task so you know what you are up against.

There are 2 types of not-fun stuff:

1. The Boring Stuff

2. The Scary Stuff

How you motivate yourself to do the not fun-stuff depends on what type it is.

And in today’s  podcast episode I share my tips and tricks for motivating yourself on all the not-fun stuff. 

Listen if you are ready to stop procrastinating or putting-off the "not-fun stuff" in your podcast.

Or, if you simply want to inject more energy and intention into an area of your podcast that doesn’t feel fun right now, this is the perfect companion for you.

If you've been thinking about starting your own podcast for what feels like an eternity, you need to hear this. (I know because I needed to hear it too when I started my podcast back in 2017) 

Seriously, how long have you been pondering over this? Weeks? Months? Perhaps even years?

I want to help you cut through the procrastination, the doubts, and the excuses because, truthfully, at this point, you are wasting your time. Time you don’t have. 

So instead of time wasting, I will have you make a choice. 

A tough choice.

But one that is necessary to make for you to stop wasting your time when it comes to starting your podcast once and for all. 

In this episode, I will break it down for you.

I kept it super short and sweet too. 

It's a reality check, a pep talk, and a roadmap all rolled into one.

We will tackle the two fundamental questions you need to ask yourself if you want to stop wasting your time in regards to starting your podcast. 

It's not rocket science, but it's the kind of clarity you've been missing in your podcasting journey. 

After listening, my hope for you is that you'll be equipped to make that crucial choice and start podcasting with intention and purpose - in the most time efficient way (because I know, you are super busy, Coach!) 

Warning / / This episode contains a generous dose of tough love. It’s  not everyone's cup of tea. So, listen with caution. If it stirs up thoughts and you need someone to talk it through with, my calendar is open for you. Schedule a chat with me [here], and I will help you stop wasting your time. 

Here’s to you as you stop wasting your time and start putting your energy where it will truly make an impact.

Reach out to me with your questions & get them answered in one of the upcoming episodes.
