Back in 2016, I decided to take a leap. I’d been podcasting for over a year and absolutely adored it. What I wasn’t adoring was my current job. So I quit my job and decided to have a go at turning my podcasting passion into a business.

I spent three months in my creative cave, writing the Ignite: Podcasting for Changemakers program. Then, towards the end of 2016, I launched the program and myself as a women’s podcast mentor into the world.

Nine months on, my business is gaining traction and momentum, most of which I owe to podcasting.

As the doors to Ignite have reopened again, I felt now was a great time to share more of my story with you.

I invited my good friend, Nicole Mathieson onto the show to pepper me with questions about my journey from a blogger to a podcaster to creating an online business.

We explore:

+ My foray into the online world as a blogger.

+ What happened when I switched from blogging to podcasting (hint: things exploded!)

+ How I turned my podcast into an online business and how podcasting has continually facilitated the growth of my business.

+ Why I created Ignite: Podcasting for Changemakers and what you can expect when you join the program.
