The Truth About Being A Podcaster

The Motivated Mind

Podcasting seems simple, right? Just a mic, some recording, and maybe fame follows. But there’s a reality here that most people miss. Drawing on my journey since 2018, I share the grit behind the grind, the hours spent speaking to an audience that wasn’t there yet, and the highs and lows of building momentum. It wasn’t until years in that I climbed the charts and saw meaningful signs of success. And while I love the craft, podcasting comes with its unique set of challenges: constant self-doubt, pressure to stay consistent, and facing down the ever-present numbers game. This is a raw, honest look at what it truly takes to make it as a podcaster. Spoiler alert: it’s about a lot more than just hitting “record.”
