Welcome to For the Love of Podcast!

After leaving corporate life last year, I’ve become obsessed with podcasting. I created the show Insight Out to highlight the transformational moments of remarkable people.

It was a year spent learning a new industry, and while I may have left my career, in the process, I found my calling!

The purpose of this new show is to help podcasters create better podcasts. I meet with the best podcasters in the world, renowned experts, and industry leaders to continue my own learning and to serve this purpose.

There are now over 1,000,000 podcasts and this show will focus on what separates the top 1% from the rest.

I dissect what makes some shows great while others fail to find success; Exploring how to produce a high-quality show and how to promote it so it can find it’s audience.

I’m on a mission to help make your podcast shine by giving you the tools, insights, and technical tips used by best podcasters of all time.

I hope you’ll join me on this journey, where everything we do, we do it FOR THE LOVE OF PODCAST!
