I was in the shower with my iPhone balanced in a cup to try and amplify the sound. I was listening to a podcast — yes, while taking a shower — and I realized that I felt like I knew the host.
It hit me: podcasting gives you the ability to extend yourself in a way that isn’t possible with just photos and captions and 15 second snippets into your life.
I dried off my arm, snagged my phone from the cup, voice texted my assistant and said, “you’re going to think I’m crazy, but…I think I’m going to start a podcast“…
And now, it’s one of my absolute *favorite* creative endeavors of my life.
Now, here I am, a podcast pro, because turns out — I LOVE podcasting. Who saw THAT coming?!
Before you picture a recording studio or a production team, I feel like I have to tell you this: I still record my podcast in a closet — and this isn’t a fancy closet with soundproofing, it’s a closet filled with boxes from our college days, puffy coats and keepsakes.
I host a Forbes top-rated, iTunes chart-topping business podcast from my sweet little closet (that kinda needs some Marie Kondo love!)
Seriously… visualize this with me for a sec.

Introducing The Podcast Lab
I’ve taken everything I’ve learned from creating a Forbes top-rated, Apple Podcast chart-topping business podcast, and turned it into a 5-Step Process to Plan, Create, Launch, Promote, Scale, and Monetize Your Podcast in 30 Days.
In six years, I went from ground zero to over 60 million downloads and 500 (and counting) episodes. My audience continues to grow every single day—and now, I’ve helped more than 9,000 others do the same.
I’m handing over the step-by-step system I used to get there.
