Real Talk Q&A: Burnout, Substack, Guest Interviews & Growing Your Podcast with Grace
Manage episode 480161479 series 2903119
Ever feel unsure about your podcast? Wondering if God really called you to this, or just how to grow without losing your mind?
In today’s special Q&A episode, I'm answering YOUR questions—from navigating burnout and calling to her honest thoughts on Substack, getting great guests, growing without obsessing over downloads, and how to balance Holy Spirit-led creativity with solid strategy.
This one’s packed with wisdom, heart, and a dose of real talk. If you’ve been second-guessing yourself lately, this episode is just what you need.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
God’s nudge is often quiet, not flashy. Calling usually starts with a tug, not a neon sign.
Substack has potential—but don’t build your house on rented land. It’s great in addition to a traditional host, not instead.
Want better podcast guests? Lead with connection, not a cold pitch.
Downloads don’t define you—faithfulness does. Focus on impact over numbers.
You can be spirit-led and organized. Plan with open hands and flexibility.
