Shownotes

Do you need guests on your podcast? If picturing your show means picturing yourself interviewing somebody, and the diaries and emails and rescheduling feel like too much, this one's for you.

I'm 37 episodes into Getting Heard and I haven't had a single guest on, and that's completely on purpose. After more than ten years making podcasts, I also run a community for people who want to get booked as guests, so this definitely isn't me being anti-guest.

In this Pod Shot I talk about one of the biggest reasons I see shows grind to a halt, why going solo is actually the easier option even though it feels scarier, and the one thing a guest episode can't do for your business, however good the conversation is. Plus a two-minute thing to do today that'll prove it to you.

It's four minutes, have a listen.

New Pod Shot every weekday, and you can come and find me on Instagram and TikTok: @lynsaymakeswaves
