What do you do when the world tells you you’re unemployable? If you're Nicolas Comstock, you start a podcast and change the game.

In this inspiring episode, Nicolas, host of Nick Speaks, shares how he turned a career setback into a platform for advocacy, storytelling, and social change. Told he wasn’t fit for traditional employment due to his disabilities, Nicolas launched a podcast that now reaches policymakers, caregivers, and everyday listeners across the country. From TikTok mini-episodes to nearly 700 YouTube subscribers, his journey is packed with lessons for business owners and marketers looking to build authentic, impactful content.

We explore how Nicolas carved out a unique voice in a crowded podcast space, grew his audience organically from TikTok, and used his platform to influence both policy and people. He shares practical tips on guest management, balancing monologues with interviews, and staying persistent even when podcasting feels like a solo grind.

Whether you’re a marketing manager searching for new content strategies or a small business owner looking to amplify your voice, this episode proves podcasting can be more than marketing, it can be a mission.
