Leave me a note-I'd love to hear from you!

🎙️ Episode Summary:

This week’s bonus episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how I started Hidden Chapters. From the equipment I use to the platforms that keep everything running, I walk you through my real setup and what works for me.

But this episode is not just about microphones and software.

It’s about connection.

I share how honest conversations have created unexpected reconnections with former students, old friends, and new guests. I talk about the ripple effect of storytelling and how one shared story can quietly inspire someone else to speak up.

If you’re curious about starting a podcast or you simply want a behind the mic look at how stories create connection, this episode is for you.

💡 In this episode you’ll hear about:

• My podcast setup from recording to hosting
• Platforms I rely on like Buzzsprout, Riverside, and PodMatch
• The equipment I personally use including my MacBook Air, Samson Q2U, Focusrite 2i2, and Sony headphones
• Why podcasting is more than just a mic
• The unexpected ripple effect of sharing your story

This podcast is not just me talking. It’s a conversation.

If this episode sparked something in you, I would love to hear from you. Your story might be the ripple someone else needs.
