92. My Mom Is My Biggest Fan (And a Podcaster Too) — with Diane Hayhurst, host of Promoting and Protecting Naturopathy

This one's special. I bullied my mom into starting a podcast a few years ago, and now I'm turning the mic on her. Meet Diane Hayhurst!! My mom, my biggest supporter, and a podcaster herself.Diane co-hosts Promoting and Protecting Naturopathy with my Aunt Julie, an ANMA podcast I produce and edit, going on three years strong. She also flew up from Las Vegas for my Podcasters NW event and was, by far, the star of the show. So I made her sit down and talk podcasting with me.JOIN: The Podcast Cafe Community a private, application-only community for podcasters who already have a show and are done guessing alone.
