My September Download Numbers & The Money I've Made as a Podcaster

Learn about the podcast experiments that worked (and didn’t work) for me in September!

I’ve been podcasting for 4 years and I am still constantly experimenting and figuring out what works best for me and for my people. I talked about my download numbers for last month, how much money I’ve made this year so far and how many podcast coaching calls I’ve done. 

You’ll also hear about the experiments I tried last month, which ones went well and which ones didn’t. Along with the experiments I’ll be trying this month (spoiler: I’m trying a lot of experiments this month…).
