The Failed Podcast
What I learned from a podcast I never made.
Dear Best Friends,
First - an important announcement: next week you’ll be seeing this newsletter with a new name and logo! Do not be scared off by a newsletter you don’t remember subscribing to. It’s me! Also, I think the emails currently come in with just my name as the sender, so especially don’t be scared off if it seems like nothing has changed at all. /announcement
I know many of you are aware that a long time ago I kept a blog about running. But more recently, I have had other content creation aspirations. Before I went down the path of pursuing visual arts, I was very focused on creating a podcast.
I cared more about starting a podcast more than I cared about the specific topic it would be about, but at the time, I was very obsessed with time management. This wasn’t a fleeting interest, I was deeply into this topic for several years: I read every book on the topic I could find, ran my own qualitative study on it at work - interviewing every employee at my company and a bunch of my clients, building out a company guide and email series on it, and ultimately creating a very short-lived newsletter about it on LinkedIn. The newsletter still exists, but I only wrote two issues and have no plans to do more there.
