Your audience does not grow simply because you upload more episodes, it grows because they feel connected to what you are saying and how you are saying it. Podcasting is not just about showing up consistently, it is about creating moments where your audience feels seen, understood and part of the conversation. What is one thing you intentionally do to build that connection?
