Next provide a paragraph of credibility markers so people can recognize they can understand that you know what you are talking about. Next add 4 to 6 solid topic ideas that you can speak about that will resonate with listeners and this makes it easy for the host to say yes.

3. Don’t let imposter syndrome or the fear of public speaking hold you back from speaking on podcasts. Shift your mindset to have an attitude of gratitude and look to provide service instead of promotion.
