454. What’s Quietly Killing Your Podcast Right Now

It’s Friday the 13th, so we’re talking about the scary stuff… the habits that quietly drain the life out of a podcast. Not the obvious mistakes. The subtle ones. Today, we’re reflecting on what can slowly stall your growth. We explore the lack of clarity, poor consistency, and the small choices that add up over time.  We share about the practical shifts we’ve made that make a real difference, and remind you that growth rarely comes from perfection. It comes from intention. We also talk about ways to avoid burnout, and giving yourself permission to adjust when life happens. To close out the week, we celebrate wins from our community. Big and small. Because progress deserves to be recognized and cheered on. Episode Highlights: Episode Highlights: [02:40] What’s quietly killing your podcast?
