About this episode
In this episode of Podcast Growth University, I call out a mistake that keeps too many podcasters spinning their wheels. It sounds logical. It feels productive. And it quietly prevents real growth. I have seen it across thousands of episodes and coaching conversations, and I made it myself early on. This episode is for podcasters who are tired of guessing and want a clearer path forward.
If your podcast feels busy but not profitable, this will help you rethink what actually moves the needle and what does not. Listen with focus, not for comfort. The shift you are looking for starts here.
