Episode 143: Why Taking Imperfect Action Is Actually Perfect

Guest Feature, Podcasts

I have a very special guest today! When I hired Stacey Harris, founder and CEO of Uncommonly More, to support my podcast production, I was ready to make a bigger impact in the world. I love that she puts people first and uses her background in audio engineering and decades of digital marketing experience to lead her team in supporting hosts like me, helping me market with integrity while I share my message.

Even if you’re not an entrepreneur, you’ll want to listen to this episode. Stacey and I discuss taking imperfect action to get started, letting go of perfectionism and control to move forward regardless of what you do, data vs. feeling and the importance of staying present in your emotions, and when to know it’s time to ask for help. But if you do have or are about to launch your own podcast (or want to uplevel the one you have), then make sure you listen until the end. You’ll hear some amazing things!

5:57 – Who Stacey is and what I thought the first time I met her

11:54 – How you decide what you like and what works and doesn’t work for your show

24:03 – One thing Stacey’s company does for my podcast that I absolutely LOVE

26:08 – What you’ll find impossible to do without support and defaulting into emotions vs. data

29:29 – The utterly nonsensical thing too many say about podcast marketing (or anything, really)

34:15 – Why building trust through imperfect action helps you

37:44 – The type of podcast episodes that get a TON of engagement

42:52 – The right time to reach out to Stacey for podcast support

49:28 – Leaving you with one last, inspirational call-to-action
