Building Relationships and Creating Impact Through Podcasting with Tabatha Thorell

Launching a brand new podcast today is much different compared to the 2010s. Because of the development of the industry, the rise in tools to assist the independent podcaster and mindset shifts in the space; podcasts have gone from simply being a fun side project to having the ability to generate revenue for your business. However, creating an impact with your show and growing your business depends largely on the relationships you create with other podcast hosts, your guests, and your audience. Tabatha Thorell is here this week to talk about her relationship-focused approach to her new podcast, being vulnerable to connect with your audience, and more! This week, episode 174 of Listeners to Leads is about building relationships and creating impact through podcasting! 

Tabatha Thorell, a native of rural Nebraska, is a devoted wife and mother to five girls. With a career spanning 16 years, she began as a fitness coach, earning a reputation for motivation and persistence. Alongside her high school sweetheart, Tabatha has been a successful real estate investor for nearly two decades. Beyond fitness coaching, Tabatha is a best-selling co-author, speaker, life and business coach. Her diverse skill set and passion for helping others achieve their dreams have made her a sought-after mentor. Tabatha's podcast, “What Went Wrong,” is where she shares inspiring stories and insights and adds another dimension to her impactful presence.

In this episode of Listeners to Leads, Tabatha Thorell is sharing the importance of not expecting immediate returns when you start a podcast and actionable steps you can take right now to practice your craft to be the best podcaster you can. 

Tabatha and I also chat about the following: 

• Building relationships through podcasting can lead to collaborations and opportunities.
• Vulnerability in storytelling can lead to healing for both the speaker and the audience.
• Monetization in podcasting goes beyond just numbers; it's about connections.
• Podcasting requires a long-term mindset - you won’t see big results after only a few episodes.
