377: What 7 Years of Podcasting Has Taught Me about Personal Branding and Thought Leadership

Speaking Your Brand: Public Speaking for Women

This week is the 7-year anniversary of the Speaking Your Brand podcast!

Thank you for being a listener, for sending me emails when an episode particularly resonates with you, and for sharing the podcast with others.

Podcasting every week for the past seven years has taught me a lot.

I'm incredibly grateful to all the women who’ve been guests for sharing their stories and wisdom with all of us.

Podcasting has also been hard at times: boredom, burnout, too many ideas, no new ideas. I’ve been through all these feelings at different points.

In this episode, I share with you:

• 3 big lessons you can use whether you have a podcast or not
• How podcasting, especially creating all of the solo episodes, has shaped my thought leadership and strengthened my personal brand
• The book I’m working on and how the topic and ideas have come directly from the podcast
• Why having a regular content creation channel can be helpful to you as you develop your own thought leadership
