If you've ever felt like podcasting is a hamster wheel you can't get off, this episode is your lifeline.
Dr. Stephanie Dean pulls back the curtain on the sustainability paradox — why being "consistent" without being "sustainable" will burn you out faster than a cheap candle. You'll learn how to plan smarter (not harder), create buffer episodes for life's curveballs, and build a show that actually lasts.
Spoiler: It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being prepared.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

• Why 90% of podcasts die after just 11 episodes (and how not to be one of them)
• How to balance evergreen and timely content like a pro
• The Three Horizons Model for sustainable content planning
• How to batch record, research, and promote without losing your mind
• Why being realistic about your time is the most fearless thing you can do

Action Steps:
- Map out your next four episodes (Horizon 1)
- Sketch your quarterly theme (Horizon 2)
- Set your podcast mission for the year (Horizon 3)
- Build your Timely Trigger List (5 predictable events)
- Block your batching days — and protect them like Beyoncé protects her tour dates
