WHY I’M QUALIFIED TO LEAD THIS CHAT 🎙️
👋🏽 HEY THERE! LOLA HERE. Allow me to reintroduce myself. I’m a busy professional with big dreams, an unstoppable drive, and a super-social family that loves keeping me on my toes.
So I know FIRSTHAND the demands of making and managing online content — from the seat of an employee, business owner, and parent.
Working a 9-to-5 job, running a business, and keeping up with a bustling household is a juggling act.
And let’s not forget those late nights when work seems to spill into every corner of our lives. Goes to grab my energizing eye patches to hide my late nights and early mornings.
My point is I’ve been exactly where you are right now.

Content that sometimes barely breaks a few hundred views or only reaches a handful of reactions. Stuff you post just to keep that tricky algorithm happy and attract people that need what you got.
It feels like a constant dance 🕺💃 that you can’t sit out.
😏But here’s the truth:
You can be less present online and still attract the attention, visibility, influence, and financial power you dream of.
And I’m here to TEACH YOU HOW to do that ⸻with a carefully crafted podcast that revolves around your ① experience, ② expertise, ③ book, or ④ business.
So let’s explore the attention-generating power of a podcast and discover how it can be the game-changer you’ve been searching for.

Okay, so this is where we get into the plan to launch your 6-episode podcast. Don’t worry. Starting your podcast doesn’t need to be overwhelming. You can prepare to set up your podcast with two things, which we’ll talk about next.
HOW TO START YOUR 6-EPISODE PODCAST
#1 Name your target audience
The first thing is to name your target audience.
Because the more you know them, the more you can connect with them. And connection is key to building your personal brand. To identify your target audience, ask yourself: Who can I help?
Write down the first thing that comes to your mind, then get more specific. What are their needs, wants, problems, or goals? How can you help them with your podcast?
#2 Choose your podcast type
The second thing is to choose your podcast type.
Audio, video, or both? Early podcasters started with audio-only podcasts. Then came video podcasts. And accessibility is only increasing.
Today you can record your podcast with studio equipment or something most of us have in our pockets: a smartphone. 📱
You can even use AI-powered tools to enhance your audio or edit your videos.
Very cool, right?
So decide how you want to record: studio, microphone, DSLR camera, or on your smartphone.
#3 Set up your podcast
Alright, you’re almost ready to record your 6-episode podcast.
But first, you need to set up your podcast.
I have two resources for you!
A BLOG POST that guides you through the steps to start your podcast.
You can read that here 👇🏽
A DIGITAL BOOK with microphone suggestions, recording, and editing tips for your podcast. You can get that guide with the link below👇🏽
A Guide to Buy Microphones, Record, and Edit Your Incredible Podcast
🚀Pro-tip: Outsource an agency or independent contractor to bypass editing.
Once you name your target audience and podcast type, you’re ready to plan your episodes.
#4 Plan your SIX episodes
To KICKSTART your podcast journey, here are six episode ideas:
Episode 1: Your story. Open your 6-episode podcast with the origin story behind what you do. Talk about what keeps you motivated, drives your vision, and the sweet rewards of your hard work.
Episode 2: Interview. Invite a peer or supporter in your industry to join you for an interview. For centuries, stories have long captivated audiences—so intentionally add memorable stories to this interview.
Episode 3: Storytelling. Share a story that honors a pivotal moment in your professional journey. Highlight key moments, perspectives, or people who helped you.
Episode 4: Helpful Teaching. Walk your audience through a timeless lesson (evergreen) about something within your industry. This can help them learn something new, solve a nagging problem, or alleviate stress.
Episode 5: Q&A. You’ll find the best content topics in your email inbox, comments, or messages. So look through your inbox and scan social media for questions within your industry that you can answer.
Episode 6: Useful Tools. Curate a list of useful things, why you like it, and how you think it could benefit your audience. You can share tools, books, podcasts, industry peers to follow, and more. Whatever you share, find a way to add yourself (book, service, social page, website, podcast, or affiliate link) to the list!
🚀Pro-tip: Curated lists and reviews are an excellent way to attract brand deals.
