- I can hardly believe it, but this is the 50th episode of Priority Pursuit! Kelsey (my podcast editor), Maile (who writes many of the blog posts and show notes), and I have been creating episodes for a full year, and I’ve loved getting to hang out with each and every one of you on a weekly basis. That said, while we’re now a year into Priority Pursuit, I dreamed of starting a podcast for a few years before it came to fruition. With my workload as a wedding photographer and as an SEO coach, I had no idea how I was going to be able to maintain a podcast well.
But, between the help of contractors, setting up workflows, and choosing the right tools, having a podcast is now something I’m able to pretty easily fit into my schedule.
And, in case you’re dreaming of starting a podcast, in this episode of Priority Pursuit, we’re celebrating 50 episodes by discussing how and why to start a podcast as a creative entrepreneur.
