Pressure Free Podcasting

Send us feedback/questions via Text

So we are still playing with EVMux (which locked up on me 4 minutes into the show) and we explored why validation matters, the importance of understanding your tech platforms, and how to balance podcasting as a hobby versus a business. Whether you’re starting with passion or planning for profit, remember: focus on great content, know your numbers, and never stop learning from your own journey.
