If you’re thinking about launching your podcast but keep hesitating, overthinking, or wondering whether it’s even worth it, stay right here. Before starting your podcast, there’s a phase most people skip — and that’s exactly where frustration tends to creep in.

I recorded this episode for solopreneurs and freelancers who want their podcast to support their business, not become another overwhelming project on an already full plate. I know how heavy a podcast launch can feel, especially when you’re doing everything yourself and questioning whether anyone will actually listen.

Instead of pushing you to “just launch already,” I talk about the early experiments that can make the entire process feel lighter and more intentional. This isn’t about perfecting anything or locking yourself into a format too early. Instead, it’s about getting clarity before committing.

You’ll start seeing your podcast idea not as a risky leap, but as something you can test, explore, and shape with real feedback.

In this episode, I explore:

1. how to reduce doubt before launching a podcast
2. what you can learn about yourself as a future host without publishing anything
3. why early conversations matter more than polished episodes

If you want to launch a podcast that actually fits your business and energy, this episode will help you slow down in the right way — so you can move forward with more confidence.
