107. The Podcast Identity Crisis: Why Most Shows Stall After 20 Episodes

from Soul Podcasting: Purpose-Driven Podcasting in Business for Solopreneurs

Most podcasts don’t fail dramatically — they stall quietly. In Episode 107, I’m unpacking what I call the podcast identity crisis — that subtle drift that happens around episode 20 when momentum fades, clarity blurs, and you start questioning whether your show is actually moving the needle. I share personal lessons from my own podcasting journey, including the moments I realized I was producing content that was interesting but not strategically aligned. We’ll break down why alignment matters more than downloads, how shows lose direction without you noticing, and the exact reset framework I use to regain clarity, energy, and momentum. If your podcast feels scattered, stagnant, or slightly off-track — this episode will help you realign and move forward with purpose.///📹Watch Soul Podcasting on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@demetriazinga🎁 Download the Launch Confidently Podcasting Checklist and join the Fearless Podcast Launch here: https://soulpodcasting.com/resources/Join Captivate for awesome podcast hosting!
