- Share logistics upfront: a bio, links, a headshot, and key talking points they’d like to cover.
- Provide a scheduling link (like Calendly) to make booking seamless.
- Research your guest by checking out their socials, website, or podcast to prep questions that resonate.
- Always include “must-ask” questions, like where listeners can find them or a signature question for your show.
- Communication is Key
- Before recording: Set expectations around episode length, editing, and the flexibility to redo answers.
- After recording: Share the release date, promotional graphics, and social tags to make it easy for them to share with their audience.

This mindset shift can lead to incredible breakthroughs, helping you embrace the idea that everything is unfolding exactly as it should.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- The importance of letting go of the need to control every detail.
- How to shift your focus from the "how" to consistent, inspired action.
- Tips for building trust in the process and in yourself.
- Stories and examples of how releasing the "how" has led to unexpected breakthroughs.
Action Steps:
- Reflect on areas where you’re holding too tightly to the "how" and consider how you can release control.
