Podcasting for Educators: Podcasting Tips for Entrepreneurs and TPT Sellers Sara Whittaker, Tips for Podcasters and TPT authors

A couple of summers ago, my husband and I were out on our friend's boat, and he wanted to try wakesurfing. And after a few failed attempts, he asked our friend how to do it. Their reply? "You just stand up!" And we always laugh about this because it was literally the least helpful response ever.
This has probably happened to you before; maybe a friend or a colleague makes something look or sound so easy, but in reality, you have no idea how to do it yourself. And in the world of online business, this makes me think of when people tell us to incorporate storytelling in our content. Megan Wisdom is here today to talk all about why storytelling is so important in our marketing and ways that we can use storytelling on our podcasts and in our email marketing.
After listening, tag Megan and me on Instagram to let us know that you are listening! You can find Megan @meganwisdomwrites and me @podcastingforeducators.

If you haven't heard me talk about this already, I am currently pregnant and due with our second daughter on April 22nd. Soo many of you have asked me, "Are you going to take leave?" And the answer is HELL YES. My experience with my first maternity leave was when I was still in the classroom, so I didn't have a choice in how long I stayed home with my first daughter.
But now that I have my own online business, things are going to look a lot different. So today, I'm talking you through how I'm planning for maternity leave when it comes to client work, my online course and digital product side of my business, and my podcast. I'm also sharing some tips from YOU all when planning for an extended leave as an entrepreneur.
