Podcaster Q&A

Tell us about yourself – what is your background?

I'm a digital marketer with a background in education and non-profits. I especially love podcasting and social media management. I'm an accidental activist with a passion for gun violence and suicide prevention. I listen to about 5-8 hours of podcasts a day and am subscribed to over 150 shows.

Why did you get into podcasting?

I'm fascinated with communication and messaging. How we tell stories and share information has always intrigued me - voices especially, because they're uniquely our own. Podcasts fully showcase voices in a really unique way.

How did the idea for the show come about?

I was in a really dark place. Having experienced a major trauma, I couldn't speak about what I was going through, felt isolated, and struggled coping. I finally decided what was best was sharing my story and once I started speaking about it, I couldn't stop. The podcast was born out of that moment of healing.

What do you hope listeners take from the show?

A community. I want people to know they're not alone in their mental health challenges. I hope that listeners feel empowered to share their own stories and speak up and advocate for others.

What's been the biggest challenge for you?

Finding guests who are willing to share their stories. Reaching a larger audience. Prioritizing time to record and edit episodes with such a busy schedule.

How can your listeners support your show?

Rate, subscribe, and REVIEW the show wherever you listen. Right now I don't have a monetary support structure, but will be launching a merch store soon!

Any future plans that you'd like to share?

I'm in the process of launching a website and merch store!
