Episode #13: Robbie on... everything I have learned about podcasting so far (with help from Adam Hulme)

A couple of months ago, my friend and former client Adam Hulme asked me if we could catch up, as he was in the process of creating a new podcast. He wanted to ask me what I had learned from the first few months of The Coach’s Journey Podcast. I decided to record the conversation and release it as an episode, as I knew that Adam wouldn’t be the last person to ask how I made my decisions about creating a podcast.

So this episode is structured around the brilliant set of questions that Adam brought to me, about how I went about creating this podcast, what I have learned, what I would advise other people to do, and what I might do differently if I started again.

In particular, I talk about:

How I structure my interviews (and what I have done to try and make them as useful to listeners as possible).

Loads of the nitty gritty detail: RSS feeds, editing, hosting, gear/tech setup and more.

My three ‘must do’s if you are creating a podcast.

And you get to meet Adam, and great coach and dynamic entrepreneur, and hear about his new podcast (with co-host Kerry Hearsey), Two Coach Confidence.

Of course I’ve only made 13 podcast episodes to date, but I hope that at the very least what I have shared in this episode and via the links below will help some people shortcut the research they need to do and - even better - help people feel empowered to get out there and make something cool.
