Reduce Impostor Syndrome By Listening Back to Your Voice - EP 107

Описание: When’s the last time you replayed your old episodes and really listened? It’s the end of another year of podcasting, and that means looking back on how far you’ve come and planning the next steps. Whether you’re taking some time off for the holiday or plugging away between the eggnog and the family time, Mary has one non-negotiable for you: you need to start listening back to your old episodes—and not just at 2X speed.

For a medium that celebrates the voice, podcasters are way too lax about auditing their primary instrument. Yes, it’s awkward, and chances are you’ll sound weird to yourself. You might even get a hint of that imposter syndrome you thought you quashed. But trust Mary: give yourself the gift of perspective and growth this year by running some personal airchecks. It really does get easier the more you do it, and you'll unlock so much potential for your show in 2026 and beyond.
