Shownotes

What if your podcast wasn’t just a platform—but the most powerful marketing tool in your entire business?

In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I sit down with the incredible Cathy Heller—business coach, speaker, host of the wildly successful Don’t Keep Your Day Job podcast (40M+ downloads), and the ultimate example of what happens when you build from purpose instead of pressure.

 

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • The truth about podcast monetization—and why most creators are doing it backwards
  • How to talk to your audience in a way that builds trust (and turns listeners into clients)
  • Why your podcast should lead your entire content strategy—not sit on the sidelines
  • Cathy’s approach to launching offers, pricing programs, and inviting people to buy (with heart)
  • The bold mindset shifts that helped her scale to multi-millions through podcasting

 

We also get real about:

  • How to lead with heart, serve without burnout, and still grow sustainably
  • The one thing she’d do differently if she were starting her podcast today
  • Ways to infuse more authenticity into your brand
