EP 200: Should you start a podcast? Reflections on 200 episodes!

Do It With Intention | Business & Marketing for Massage and Bodywork Therapists

On this week’s milestone podcast, we celebrate our 200th episode with former The Bodywork Project alumni and bodyworker extraordinaire, Julie Taylor.

Tune in to hear Julie interview me about this exciting occasion, and learn what it’s like to spend half a decade producing a podcast for massage therapists and bodyworkers on the business side of their practices. (Spoiler: It’s terrific!)

“What I’ve learned over the 5 years I’ve been doing this is that I’m starting to lean more into who I am. What does that mean? I am unapologetically Old School. I know that our industry, our work, is absolutely about connecting with people one on one, holding space for them, being present, being neutral, and I’m going to lean into that more. I’ve grown into comfort and confidence. This is who I am and this is what I’ve seen work over and over again.” — Mindy Totten

This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast:

• Learn why I decided to start a podcast and maintain it on a consistent basis, and an astonishing statistic about how long the average podcast lasts.

• How women in particular have a hard time embracing what they’ve built and having pride in their accomplishments.

• Find out what “perfection paralysis” and “the first pancake” are and how to overcome them. Hint: You can’t control everything.

• Learn how (and why) to start a podcast, some challenges involved in producing one, and the fun parts too.
