Find Your Voice and Listen to It: A Top-Rated Podcaster’s Journey (Ep 120)

For her 20th episode, Kathy chats with Michele Lamoureux, host of the long-running podcast and top-rated podcast, The Good Life with Michele Lamoureux, now rebranding with a new title and focus, a movement that could impact women around the world in a meaningful way. In this engaging and inspiring conversation, Kathy sits down with Michele Lamoureux, an award-winning podcast host, connector, and champion for women in midlife, to explore what it means to not only highlight other women’s voices, but how she listened to her own along the way.  Michele shares how she first launched The Good Life almost ten years ago, before podcasting was mainstream, and how her curiosity and love for deep, meaningful conversations kept her going through hundreds of episodes. Together, she and Kathy discuss the behind-the-scenes realities of hosting a long-term show: staying consistent, keeping the content fresh, and building genuine relationships with guests and listeners alike. Now, as Michele prepares for her rebranding, she opens up about how the new title reflects her own growth and her desire to spotlight women who are no longer waiting for permission to lead, create, and shine. The episode also explores how Michele helps others start and sustain their own podcasts, guiding them through the technical, emotional, and creative sides of the process. Through laughter and lived experience, she and Kathy remind listeners that reinvention doesn’t always mean starting over; sometimes it’s about stepping more fully into what’s already there. Themes We Explore Why podcasting is a long game — and how to stay inspired over time The power of curiosity in building authentic conversations What the transition to a new podcast title and focus means for Michele and her audience Coaching others to find their voice and share their stories How creative work evolves as we do Resources Mentioned Michele offers free consultations to those looking to explore her podcast coaching offering: https://calendly.com/thegoodlife/20min Sign up for Michele’s newsletter: https://thegoodlifecoach.com/   Watch her podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@herstarringrole or listen on  Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4NlNdhJC4IG2eybBeId03W?si=6d46032a5f3b4724 -  About Michele Lamoureux Michele Lamoureux is a podcast host, coach, and connector who has been producing The Good Life with Michele Lamoureux for nearly a decade.
