Alesia Galati Episode 197

Ever dreamt of launching your own podcast but felt overwhelmed by the 'how'? You're not alone! This week on Podcasting Unlocked, we're diving deep into the real-life journey of Lauren Burns, host of The Redeemed Podcast. From stumbling upon podcasting advice on Pinterest to celebrating her one-year anniversary, Lauren shares her raw, honest experience of launching her podcast, overcoming fears, and discovering the incredible impact it's had on her life and her listeners. Get ready for actionable strategies, heartfelt stories, and a dose of inspiration that will empower you to finally hit that 'record' button. This week, episode 197 of Podcasting Unlocked is about strategies and tools for launching your first podcast!

Lauren Burns is the host of The Redeemed Podcast, launched in April 2024, with the mission to encourage and inspire others through her personal testimony and the powerful stories of her guests. Starting The Redeemed Podcast was a leap of faith for Lauren, as her only training came from listening to Alesia’s podcast for three months before launching her own. This journey has opened doors she never could have imagined, including reconnecting with and interviewing the courageous men who rescued her when she was kidnapped as a child. Each episode reflects the hope and redemption she’s found through God’s grace and her desire to share that with others.

In this episode of Podcasting Unlocked, Lauren Burns is sharing the importance of overcoming fear to try something new and actionable steps you can take right now to balance podcasting with all the other aspects of your life. 

Lauren and I also chat about the following: 

  • Batch recording to stay consistent and manage your time effectively.
  • The importance of focusing on the listener experience with your show.
  • Investing in quality equipment and finding the tools that work for you.
  • How the impact of podcasting goes beyond your download numbers. 

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on turning your podcast listeners into leads and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
