In today’s episode of Podcast Growth University, I break down one of the biggest traps podcasters fall into without even realizing it by choosing pricing that feels good on paper but destroys real-world momentum. AI tools like ChatGPT often push creators toward high-ticket numbers that look impressive, yet almost no one will actually pay. I’ll show you why sustainable pricing wins, how I learned this the hard way, and the simple shifts that help you get more clients, grow faster, and build real confidence in your business. If you’re ready for clarity, honesty, and a strategy you can actually use, this one’s for you. Hit play and step into the version of yourself your audience has been waiting to hire.

#179 - Chat GPT Is Sabotaging You…

Standing out in podcasting isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what only you can do. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down a hard truth most podcasters never hear, and it can change the way you create, communicate, and grow. I’ll share the mindset shift that has helped thousands of hosts become clearer, more confident, and more magnetic behind the mic. No trends. No tricks. No shortcuts. Just the quiet factor that separates shows people forget from shows people follow. If you’ve ever wondered why your effort isn’t matching your results, this conversation will land exactly where you need it.

#177 - Give Me 20 Minutes And I Will Give You 8 Years Of Podcasting Lessons

In today’s episode of Podcast Growth University, I share the straight shot of truth about what really keeps your podcast growing when motivation fades. No fluff, no hype, just the mindset that’s helped me record over 3,500 episodes without burning out. If you’ve ever felt stuck, tired, or unsure you’ve got “enough” to give, this one’s for you. Press play, take the hit, and get back to the mic, because consistency doesn’t wait for perfect conditions.
