Lets Talk About Fear!

Fear shows up in podcasting in sneaky ways not as “I’m scared,” but as “I don’t have time,” “I don’t know what to say,” or “I’ll start later.” In this episode of Pod Savvy Guide, Steph gets real about the fears that stop people from hitting record, from worrying about how you sound or look, to wondering what family, friends, or strangers might think, to the deeper fear of trying hard and being seen. She shares her own fears around live podcast events, posting clips online, putting paid offers out into the world, and pushing past the discomfort of marketing something she knows can help people. This episode isn’t about eliminating fear it’s about moving forward anyway. As Steph reminds us through a quote from Mark Twain, “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear not absence of fear.” If you’ve been sitting on a podcast idea, avoiding the next step, or feeling that pit in your stomach when you think about creating, this episode is your reminder that courage comes from action.
